Lesley was a wonderful host and her flat is lovely! I spent a week in the flat and found it to be perfect for my needs. The location is excellent for exploring the Royal Mile and catching a train at Waverly Station. The flat was very clean with lots of little extras provided by Lesley - shortbread, juice, cereal, milk. You do have to go up four flights of spiral stairs (72 steps) to get to the flat, but that just adds to the charm of the place and ensures you get some exercise each day. :-) If you have mobility issues or a large suitcase, you may find the stairs challenging. Personally, I loved them! I traveled solo and felt safe walking around the area day and night. Lesley provided excellent communication before and during my stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to rent this flat again.
