The flat is exactly as described. A fantastic home base for exploring Edinburgh. I am a very light sleeper and had no trouble - the flat's location is perfectly tucked away from the noisy street. It was extremely clean and very comfortable. We felt right at home very quickly. The view of the castle from the little porch is lovely over breakfast. Susan was incredibly responsive before and during our stay, which was greatly appreciated especially when we had a small issue with the shower head system. For any fellow Americans, there is a heating system and general hot water system that we may not be familiar with -- make sure to read her instructions and let her know if you have questions. A wonderful experience in a charming flat complex with a pretty courtyard. Definitely looking forward to staying again!
