James' apt was very cozy - it was the right size for the two of us. The facilities were clean and everything was in good working order. Never heard any of the neighbors - it was peaceful and quiet. You will get good exercise as it is a third floor walk-up. While there is free parking on the street, this being Edinburgh, it is difficult to find a spot. Not a problem as a lot of things are within walking distance and the bus transit system is excellent. They have a great app which makes it very easy to use. We would stay here again.
