The seaside apartment is a great place. I'd usually look for accommodation closer to the centre of town , but when I saw this , I thought I'd give it a try. I was very glad that I did. Transport links between central Edinburgh and Portobello are very good , with frequent bus services , so there was no problem travelling between the two. The apartment looks exactly as it does in the photographs , which is always a relief. It has everything that a single traveller or couple could need for a visit. The host was great too , providing all the help and information necessary , with a nice personal touch , making one feel very welcome. I would recommend this apartment without hesitation.
