Pros: Fabulous location next to the Usher Hall, giving it easy access to both the new town (Princes Street) and then a short walk up the hill to the old town (Royal Mile/Castle). It has lovely restaurants too and we tried the Chinese buffet three doors down which was great. It's a lovely, clean flat with all the facilities you need; we don't go out every evening so it was lovely to have a nice sitting room with a decent TV and a good size kitchen to make dinner. Both double beds are comfortable and the linen had very clearly been laundered. Bathroom is also fabulous and new. Overall, a great flat at a great price. Dele himself is lovely, communication was very quick and he answered all my questions promptly. When we arrived there was a birthday card and doughnuts for my mum as I mentioned it was her birthday, and it was a lovely touch - so thank you!
MINOR cons: As per the other reviews, ignore the entrance hall as it doesn't reflect the lovely flat. However, the stairs are quite steep, especially the second set. If you are sensitive to light at night, do bring an eye mask as the hall light from the entrance hall shines through the inner window, so it's quite bright in the bedrooms as they have windows above the inner doors. The last small con (?) is that the building is shared with university students; they were quiet and polite except for Friday night and especially Saturday night where they had a party until about 4am so not much sleep was had (!) because you can hear everything going on in the hallway and outside on the street - again, ear plugs would solve this issue.
Overall I highly recommend this airbnb; it was our first ever one and it's been a really good experience. Its a fabulous flat and my only advice would be to bring eyemasks and earplugs if you're light sleepers. Thank you again for letting us stay.
