This was a small but comfortable apartment located within a short walk of major supermarkets and lots of bus routes. It was very quiet and had a lovely outlook over the park. Communication was excellent. We enjoyed our stay.
Our first visit to Scotland/ Edinburgh. Great visit, great accommodations, & great host!!! The flat was close to the city center, Leith, and Portobello. Bus stop and grocery (Sainsbury & Leidl) a short walk. Bus and travel was easy with the Lothian app.Safari Lounge a great local pub to walk to and eat. Overall AAA host!!!
Property was extremely well maintained, in a fantastic location less than 10 minutes from the train station, and the host was very friendly and knowledgable. Groceries, pharmacy, coffee, and a ton of attractions all within a 10-15 minute walk. Spent a week walking everywhere with no need for a vehicle and minimal need of public transit.
Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to visit Edinburgh.
We were so happy with the property! Walk ability to groceries, bus stops, and beautiful back yard full of birds and trees! Really liked the whole thing…only needed kitchen towels/ or more paper towels..still, a lovely property! 👍❤️
This was a great location to stay on my recent trip to Edinburgh. The apartment was very clean, well designed, with all the amenities one would want while traveling. The location was quiet but within walking distance of any sight you wanted to see. The host was exceptional. He stayed in communication with me. Was at the apartment when we arrived to show us around. Gave us helpful tips on how to navigate Edinburgh and was just genuinely a nice and vibrant person. I highly rate this property and the host!
We very much enjoyed the stay. The apt had everything we needed and Slawomir was an excellent host. He was vey communicative and helpful, bringing fresh towels mid week and an extra blanket for my daughter. Also, the apt was only a short 10 min walk to Sainsbury, the bus stop, and only a 25 min walk to the Palace of Holyroodhouse at the foot of the Royal Mile. The apt bldg had an elevator, which was very nice.Overall, I would highly recommend this apt.
Easy parking and access to building and apartment. Apartment very clean and comfortable throughout and kitchen fully equipped. Easy to get uber to everywhere. Very quiet and lovely views looking out onto park with trees. Highly recommend if want to see Edinburgh or go on coach tours.
Check in arrangements: It was great to be greeted in person.
Excellent in all respects.

Great apartment
Very handy location for central Edinburgh and Leith. Nice outlook over park, clean, warm and well equipped. Host gave lots of good recommendations for activities and eating out. Thanks for a great stay.
We had a wonderful time during our stay. The place was clean and had ample room. It was quiet at night and felt especially safe with the secure building. Host was quick to reply and had several suggestions for us.
This was the perfect place for our stay in Edinburgh. The apartment has everything you need and is located within walking distance of the sites we wanted to visit. Slawomir the host is friendly and answered all our questions about how to get around.

Great stay in a lovely residential area!
If you want a quiet place to stay in busy Edinburgh this is a great choice! The owner was very helpful and gave great recommendations for restaurants and activities. Walking to the Old or New Towns takes about 25 minutes and there are lots of buses and taxis. We especially loved the Leith port area including the Compass restaurant.
We really enjoyed this property. Host was delightful and informative. Beautiful view out balcony. Quiet and restful place to recharge after a day in Edinburgh. Close to grocery store. Kitchen equipped well and everything very clean. Loved our stay.
The apartment was well located close to the Royal Mile with plenty of beautiful sites to see.
I recommend people place a visit to Edinburgh and stay at this apartment.
Thanks
