We were in town to see our daughter's to degree show at Edinburgh College of Art and the flat was perfectly located around the corner, just off Grassmarket. Despite its central location, it was very quiet. It was a real oasis, with everything we needed. The bed was one of the most comfortable I have ever slept in, there was an a huge amount of storage and some nice welcome touches like home made shortbread. If you have ever been to Edinburgh, you will know about the hills, stone steps and alleyways and this flat is located up a very steep street. That means you get a stunning view of the Castle from the front door, but just bear in mind that the 15 minute walk from Princes Street is a decent workout if you are carrying luggage. To be fair, the hosts made that clear, so we were prepared. In fact, all the hosts' instructions were really helpful.
