The place were 20 minutes walking to the city centre, just a straight line surrounded by different and lot of amenities: restaurants, breakfast, fast food places ans supermarkets making tge stay easier. The house was really clean and Lucy was so kind providing us of the essentials. I would say the house is cosy and lovely for a familiar stay. The stairs are not so bad, i read before some reviews and i was worried because i went with my father and he is on his latest 60s but they are easy to climb up. Definetly i would choose again Lucy's place for my next stayed in Edimburgh.
