Our stay fully met our high expectations -- and more. We found the flat charming, cozy and very well kept and equipped, and beautifully decorated. Furthermore, Debbie had left basic food (e.g. bread, butter, milk), toiletries and several towels per person, as well as several pieces of info about things to see in the city. She had also written several pages of info about the flat and how to operate equipment -- extremely helpful. Communications were friendly and smooth, as was arrival and departure. The flat is very well located across from the Royal Palace (albeit it's hidden behind trees) and very close to the main street, the Royal Mile, the Scottish Parliament and the Dynamic Earth museum. The flat is accessible from the street without any steps. There is traffic noise from the main street in front but the flat is well insulated so this did not disturb us at all. The only, very minor, negative point would be that there is no grocery store real close -- need five mins walk. We would certainly stay in Debbie's flat again when we revisit Edinburgh (and we will!) and I will recommend it to friends and family. Thanks a lot!
