The apartment is far better than in the pictures - it's really luxurious and beautifully furnished! Laura was really friendly and told us everything we needed to know. She even left us some Scottish treats (shortbread, etc.) and also tea, coffee, cereals and milk! The location is ideal for getting into the centre, i.e. Princes Street, Royal mile (15 min walk), Castle, etc. The area the apartment is in, Stockbridge, is a vibrant and non-touristy and there are loads of artisan coffee shops, (favourite: The Artisan Roast), boutique shops, restaurants and bars. There is also a supermarket just around the corner. There's no doubt that I will be staying here again when I next come back to Edinburgh. Awesome place, perfect location and overall brilliant value for money.
