This was the perfect location! It was a quick walk to the metro that was an easy ride to the city centre. The place was spacious and clean. It did get a little noisy especially having to keep the window open during the summer but after a day of walking and fun we slept hard. Great food and cafe's very close by. Would stay here again!

Nice little flat in a convenient location, but sadly it's let down by noise (badly sealing windows on to the main street).

Leith Walk Urban Retreat

This modest 2 bedroom apartment situated us well for our 2 night stay in Edinbugh. Off the center of the bustling city, a 25 minute stroll gained you access to all the sites. Even walkable, was Arthur's Seat and Holyrood where we happened upon the King's helicoptor landing for the annual Garden Party. Magical! Don't let the access from the alley and strret noise concern you. We felt very secure and loved the neighborhood establishments!

Spacious and comfortable

Andrew's property was clean and spacious. The beds and couch were comfortable, and the shower and laundry were easy to operate. The exterior door to building 1 was a little difficult to find, but the place was overall a great crash pad for our time in Edinburgh.

Good location near bars restaurants and a supermarket

A lovely clean flat with everything you need. The only negative would be the larger bed rocked every time the other person moved waking you up so we didn’t get much sleep. The kitchen had a good selection of cupboard items including teas and coffee but we couldn’t find a cafetière to use the fresh coffee which was the only thing we would have used. The flat overlooks a busy street which is fine as long as you take earplugs.

Wir waren zufrieden. Eine schöne Küche, nur leider ist es schwierig für 4 Personen darin zu kochen. Es sind keine großen Töpfe da bzw Pfannen. In der Nähe ist es aber einfach gute Gastronomie zu finden.

Die Wohnung ist sehr umsichtig ausgestattet. Die Lage ist perfekt um die Stadt zu Fuß zu erkunden. Vom Flughafen fährt die Straßenbahn bis fast vor die Haustür, wir hätten gar keinen Mietwagen gebraucht. Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter war problemlos. Pubs und Restaurants sowie Supermärkte direkt um die Ecke. Der Hauseingang war etwas schwierig zu finden ansonsten alles perfekt!

Appartement très bien mais bruyant

L'appartement en lieu même est bien. Le lave linge est un plus, il ne manque rien mais il n'y a pas de double vitrage. On entend absolument tout ce qu'il se passe dans la rue. A cette epoque il fait jour a 4h du matin en ecosse, il serait chouette d'investir dans de veritable rideau et le lit a ressort est a changer aussi. On loue un appartement pour y dormir, ce serait.donc bien de pouvoir dormir !

Bon rapport qualité prix

Le logement est conforme aux photos très pratique pour un séjour de quelques jours a Edinburgh. L'hôte porte une attention particulière au détails (quelques condiment, produit hygiénique, bouchon d'oreille ). Le seul bémol, c'est le bruit de la rue très présent car le logement donne directement sur une rue passante et l'insonorisation n'est pas top.
