The flat is within a 10 minute walk to Waverley train station which is just across a bridge from the Old Town. There are many restaurants and cafes near the flat and a grocery store right across the street. It is very clean and well equipped - comfortable beds, towels, washing machine, warm shower, and a good sized bathroom. The shortbread, tea, and coffee is also a nice touch. It was a bit cool but once the heater is turned on it doesn't take long to heat the flat.
We arrived early at the flat but within 5 minutes Michael came running down the street to meet us. He showed us around the flat so we were familiar with the place. He has brochures and a binder full of information of sites to see in Edinburgh and within Scotland which was very helpful and helped us plan the next part of our trip through Scotland.
Overall it was a lovey stay and a nice home away from home in Edinburgh for a few days, and a very good location just out of the busy Old Town.
