The location of the apartment worked well for us. It was a reasonable distance from most major sites and an easy walk to a variety of restaurants , coffee shops and a Tesco mini- mart. The apartment faced a quiet courtyard and the back, where the bedroom was located, faced a small parking area and a street. We were able to sleep with our window open and were rarely disturbed by any noise.
The apartment was clean and had ample storage space. Our host was pleasant and responsive. The only negative was the bed size which was not king sized as described in the listing. The mattress was comfy and there were an assortment of pillows. The bathroom was also a bit cramped. The shower stall was quite small, and the little sink was located under the mirrored medicine cabinet so one had to duck down and under to brush teeth. But we found it all manageable and a very good place to stay while exploring Edinburgh.
