The apartment was extremely clean and tidy and looked exactly as it appeared in the pictures. There was plenty of room for storage and there were some interesting books and unique decorations that we appreciated. The guestbook was a good read. Additionally, the kitchen was well equipped with a generous amount of food supplied on arrival - such as porridge, spices, eggs, milk and bread. We cooked on a few occasions and it was easy to keep the place tidy.
The location of the apartment was really handy as it was only a short walk away from the centre of town. There was no noise heard from neighbours over the three nights we stayed.
We didn't get to meet James but the communication was great and we received very fast responses to our queries. We managed to book an unplanned for third night in the apartment with ease as James was really accommodating and sorted out any problems with the booking process on his end. He had also supplied a map of Edinburgh with his recommendations marked upon it and a sheet of instructions about how to use the various appliances within the apartment which was a nice touch. We would definitely love to visit for a longer stay in the future.
