What a wonderful stay

Susan was more than helpful throughout the entire booking process and was great with communication. The apartment was very well catered and had thoughtful touches of home which were much appreciated as young travellers. The location was super convenient for getting in and out of the city. We would 100% recommend this home (and Susan) to anyone travelling to Edinburgh :)

Perfect apartment for our stay in Edinburgh

The property located in a great location to public transportation with a store just across the street. The owner went above and beyond supplying the place with everything you may possibly need and it was well maintained. She even gave all the information needed to navigate the city! We stayed for three nights and really enjoyed it.

Great place to stay, great host

This was a great stay. Would be happy to recommend. Only slight negative is that this place isn’t walking distance to downtown. That said, it’s a short bus ride or uber. The host was wonderful to deal with. Place was spotless upon arrival. There was a guest book with tons of info on local spots. Any questions we had were answered nearly immediately and many things were thought of in advance. I’d be happy to stay here again.

Edinburgh weekend

This home was exactly what we needed for our three day visit to Edinburgh. All communication was accurate and easy. The home was extremely clean, quiet and comfortable. It was very well stocked and we wanted for nothing. Good bed and lovely shower. Access to the city was easy with the bus stop right outside. Coffee shop and small supermarket across the road and a “chippy” around the corner. Lucky to have found it and would highly recommend it!
