We stayed during the Fringe festival and would have preferred a central location but they were all gone by the time we booked. This is actually a better location and we were really happy to have got it. The location is Leith, the old dockyards suburb of Edinburgh, and about 30 mins by bus (£5 for 3 people) or 15 in a taxi (£10). It's right beside the Royal Yacht Britannica, a shopping centre, and a few minutes to a number of bus lines.
The apartment has a double bedroom and a sofa bed in the living room, with a separate small kitchen, a toilet, and a shower room. It's a recent let so all the furniture and fittings are new, well maintained, and has everything you need for a short stay. Communication is very swift, we updated our arrival time when we landed, changed check out time, all with quick messages. The street is a terrace that is quickly gentrifying; houses converting to flats, lots of renovating going on. It still has a nice working class feel to the area and it's a quiet area that's great after a busy day in the city. As it's a house conversion you will hear your neighbours upstairs and people coming in and out the front door. We really liked our stay and would definitely recommend.
