Fabulous

This property has all you need for a great break in Edinburgh.The apartment is in an easy to reach area of Edinburgh and. close to many great spots such as the Edinburgh Playhouse and The Stand Comedy Club. The flat had a warm and cosy feel to it and was fully equipped.Graeme provided a wealth of knowledge beforehand which proved very useful during our stay. So glad that I found this property.First visit and will not be my last.Highly recommend.

A nice place to stay for a night.

The unit was in a good neighborhood and felt very secure. The building was nice as were the surrounding buildings and park across the street. The only issue we had is at the owner moved the check-in time from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. after we had already made our arrival plans. He changed them approximately 4 days before our stay even though we had agreed on 2:00 p.m. at the time of booking. I did not see the message moving the check-in time until it was too late. This caused us to stand outside in the rain for quite some time because the cleaner had not yet finished and did not leave the unit until 4:30 p.m. it was frustrating for us to stand there with our bags in the rain. I recommend verifying the check-in time with the owner so that you don't end up in the same situation.

Good location for activities

Location very central to many sites. Within walking distance to Royal Mile, Arthur’s Seat & Holyrood. Lots of places to eat on Leith Way. Property was fairly small but that is expected in central city area. We didn’t spend much time there anyway with all the things to do. Just sleeping and showering and then off to the sites. That was all we needed.

Die Unterkunft liegt sehr Zentral.. Buslinie 5 Gehminuten entfernt. zum Zentrum ca. 20 Minuten

Im großen und ganzen positiv. Allerdings die Treppe zum Hochbett ist viel zu steil. Ein Zudecke für 2 Personen ist definitiv zu wenig...

Very close to downtown, host was so helpful and friendly

The very clean apartment had multiple thoughtful touches (umbrellas for rainy weather, a "pay it forward" bottle of whiskey for a wee nip of Scotland's finest, fresh milk and condiments in the kitchen, etc.) that made for a lovely "welcome." Having a washer/dryer was invaluable, the wifi was speedy, and the bed was quite cosy and comfortable beneath that (much needed) fluffy comforter. Communication with the owner was extremely prompt and very friendly/helpful. This is an older building, so there is no elevator/lift, and the apartment is on the third floor, so be ready to do some "heavy lifting" if you've brought bigger pieces of luggage on your trip. Other than that (and it's clearly not something the host could control), the experience was wonderful.

About the host

Hosted by Graeme Rae

Hi Guests,
Many thanks for considering to stay at my home in Edinburgh. Whether your coming for business, pleasure or to visit family, I hope you will enjoy my apartment and all Edinburgh has to offer.
I grew up on the outskirts of Edinburgh in Balerno and after graduating from The Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen have been travelling and working all over the world for the last 20 years.
During this time I’ve learnt to keep things simple has always worked best. I hope you see this in how both the apartments I’ve bought are laid out to provide you with a comfortable and pleasant stay. From an early check in to drop off luggage to Unlimted WiFi, Cable TV, Nespresso Coffee, Complimentary Red Wine, Flat screen TV’s, NEST Temperature control, luxury Linens, Dressing gowns and bedding. Add this to the additional space, privacy and flexibility of a private apartment, along with fully equipped kitchens and I do hope you have the perfect holiday.
I hope you find my apartment welcoming and you might just notice the occasional piece of Thailand along the way.
Any questions please do ask I’m always on hand to answer any queries. Enjoy your Travels !!
