Had a great stay in Paul’s flat. The flat is about a 20-minute straight-line walk to Waverley Station and the Royal Mile. The room in the flat was a nice size, and included an armoire, a queen-size bed, a desk and a window which looks onto Leith St. Each of the five guest rooms had their own lock and key. The flat itself, located on the first floor (which, to non-Europeans is the second floor) of the building, was quite large. There were two bathrooms (the main bathroom was very large and includes a full bath with an electric shower.) The kitchen was also spacious, with plenty of cabinet space for guests who like to buy and cook their own meals. For guests who like to eat out, there are many restaurants and cafes in the immediate area.
Though the flat is located on a main street, the window in my room was very effective in minimizing the sounds of cars (and on weekends, stag parties.) I didn’t have a problem with noise at all.
Paul himself was very responsive and accommodating. I asked to check-in a few hours early to drop my luggage off. Not only did Paul say yes, but the room was fully prepared for my early arrival. I appreciated this very much.
Overall, I had a great stay and the flat was a nice comfort to return to after a long day out in the city. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for accommodation near the city centre.
