We had a lovely few days at Helen’s place. The highlight was the location - so close to attractions, shops, pubs, markets, and everything you might need. We walked from the train station to the house on a short 15min walk downhill. Be aware that the way back is uphill (Edinburgh as a whole is very up and down hill). Other reviews mention the strange bathroom arrangement (one just with a toilet, one just with a shower and one just with a bath) — we believe it might be because the buildings are old and didn’t use to accommodate in-house bathrooms, but it wasn’t that big of a problem for us. Just take extra care to not let water run down under the door in the shower room which might get the carpet wet. Everything else was great!!
