Claire is an absolutely lovely host, very responsive and friendly. The flat was fairly clean when we arrived but we were just disappointed as it is a lot smaller than we anticipated and the building itself is quite run down and dirty. There were clean towels out on the bed for us when we arrived and the heating was on a timer so it was warm which was lovely :)
All in all a decent stay considering we didn’t spend a lot of time in the flat itself as we were out and about, however we thought it was highly priced for the size and location - good half an hour walk into town and 45 mins to the castle etc. If we were to visit Edinburgh again we would probably want something closer to the old town. We were able to find a parking spot outside which was great as it was free but if using public transport (mainly train) its quite a walk from the station, there are lots of buses though!
