Maria's place is located in a quiet place away from the main attraction. However, it is close enough for a nice walk, approximately 20 minutes. Place has everything including washer/dryer(slow but very convenient), kitchen with all your needs. Maria is very prompt and helpful. It was spacious for 3 of us to stay and sleep comfortably. Only thing that I had found to be inconvenient was the hot water in the shower which was insufficient for 2 people to take consecutively. Enjoy your visit to this beautiful city of Edinburgh!!
