Bob Flynn's place is a cozy gem. I put my elderly parents up here because this flat can be accessed without stairs, is a short, flat walk to shops buses and there is a step-in shower instead of the typical Edinburgh tall tub.

My parents were very happy in this spot and we enjoyed sitting in the comfortable living room chatting with them. The flat has good internet, a large flat-screen TV, a nice kitchen, a stylish bathroom and a comfortable bed. The Colonies is one of the most charming neighborhoods in the city, and this flat is peaceful. Very large windows let in lots of light. The patio is a pleasant place to sit, especially in morning sun (if you are so lucky as to have sun happen during your stay).

Bob thoughtfully left fresh fruit, eggs, milk, bread, butter and jam for breakfast. He also is a very responsive host and I enjoyed my interactions with him. This will be my first choice for placing my overflow Stockbridge guests in the future.
