This is a delightful funky apartment! Rachel goes out of her way to truly make a remarkable and memory stay. The apartment is full of functional necessities along with delightfully tasteful intricacies that attract the eye and tantalize the mind! Well positioned just outside of the town center, the apartment and neighborhood is pleasantly quiet. It is an easy walk to Real Foods, Tesco, and a little further the Co-Op. The kitchen is well equipped. Yes it is a walk up three flights of beautifully winding stair cases, but the location and peaceful living inside is well worth the mild physical endeavor. Communication between Rachel is excellent, you can tell she adores hosting as she even delivered extra towels in a bag for us on her bike after work for us on our first evening, along with ice creams for the children as we were having a heat wave…. Totally unnecessary AND AMAZING!!!! We also appreciated all of the labeled instructions through out the apartment, extra bedding and pillows, recycling, and Japanese style bath room and water closet. We would love to come back!!! Oh and you are about 10-15 min walk from everything you want to see in Edinburgh!
