We stayed at Jason's place last weekend and had the most amazing time! Before we arrived Jason was great at getting in touch and answering any questions we had and very accommodating in terms of letting us drop our bags off at the flat early. We were met by Armando who was very nice and showed us around the flat and gave us some tips on what to do and see in Edinburgh. The flat is huge! With gorgeous high ceilings! There's lots of space to make yourselves comfortable. It's spotlessly clean and has everything you need. It's also in a great area with lots of nice restaurants, pubs and coffee shops close by. It's less than a ten minute walk from Princes street and the tram stop so easy to get to from the airport. We walked everywhere so it's definitely walking distance from everywhere but for those that aren't up for hiking all over the city there seemed to be plenty of buses!
One thing worth noting...there are stairs up to the living area of the flat so it's not for those that can't manage stairs but there's a large entrance hall where you can leave prams as we did. We had toddlers with us and just had to keep an eye on the kids with the stairs which wasn't a problem.
We would definitely try to stay at Jason's next time we're in Edinburgh! Thank you Jason and Armando!!
