Merv's flat exceeded our expectations and them some! We were so comfortable there! The flat is sparkling clean and has everything you need. Towels, linens, hair dryer, great closet space. The best part was the neighborhood! There are tons of restaurants and shops right at your fingertips. We liked the fact that everything was so close in case we didn't want to go back to the center in the evenings. There is a tesco right around the corner for groceries. I was worried that we would be too far from city center but we weren't at all. The center is about a 15 minute walk. If we ever come back to Edinburgh (which we will!) we would stay at Merv's again and again! There's no point to look elsewhere!
