I stayed at Isabel's place for 6 nights and would not hesitate to book with her again if I were to return to Edinburgh. My booking was very last minute and even though the listing is not Instant Book Isabel was very prompt in confirming and with subsequent messages arranging check-in timing etc. The location of the house is great - there are bus stops nearby and you can even walk to the city centre (where most attractions are) if you're not pressed for time or terribly unfit. There's a supermarket within walking distance too, but it's not that nearby, so I'd recommend stocking up on snacks before heading back to the house if you're the sort who feels peckish in the late evening. The house itself has a lovely atmosphere, is very clean and well-equipped with essentials like shampoo etc.
