Dit is de perfecte uitvalsbasis voor een tripje in Edinburgh. Het is een klein, maar fijn appartementje met een bus die voor de deur stopt waardoor je met ongeveer 15 minuten in het centrum staat. Aan de overkant is ook een kleine supermarkt met alle basics. Susan was zeer vriendelijk en vlot in de communicatie. Absoluut een aanrader!

Lovely place, great location

Paar dagen Edinburgh

Het appartement was gezellig en alles wat je nodig had aanwezig, en meer! Bedden waren heerlijk. Ideaal dat de bus voor de deur stopte en we binnen een kwartier in het centrum waren. Handig dat er aan de overkant een supermarktje is. Communicatie verliep prima. Islamitische met al een top verblijf!

Comfortable convenient clean

From check in to check out everything was perfect. The host communicated with us and her instructions for checking in and out were easy to follow. The apartment is right on the city bus route, has a CO OP and bakery across the street. W parked our car on the street for free and took a break from driving for two days while we explored Edinburgh. The apartment is clean, well supplied and comfortable. Highly recommend this property.

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.

Comfortable, well furnished apartment

We much enjoyed our stay at the apartment. The living room and bedroom were well furnished, the kitchen was well equipped, and the bathroom was clean and fully functional. The neighborhood was quiet and within walking distance of the downtown and Leith. We would definitely stay again.

Great Host, Great Location, Charming and Comfortable

Welcoming and charming, and well-equipped, we had everything we needed. Even charging adapters (we had left behind.) Great clear communication! We enjoyed our walk to the Royal Mile … taking in the history and culture along the way. Delightful!

Absolutely Fantastic VRBO Experience

Everything was perfect. From the booking details to fact that the bus stops literally in front of the unit…everything was amazing. Susan had so many nice touches set up in the apartment. The bed was wonderful. We were totally delighted by this experience which was the first stop of many on the way through Europe. Highly recommend.

Home away from home

We had a lovely time in Susan's appartment. She sent us elaborate check in information. So it was easy for us to enter the appartment. The location is a 35 min walk out of the city centre (which was no problem for us since we love walking) but there is a busstop right in front of the appartment as well for those who cannot or do not want to walk into town. The kitchen is fully equiped and the cupboards were stocked and we could use that. The only comment we have, is that the upstairs neighbours were a bit loud and noisy late in the evening and during the night. All in all we loved staying in the appartment and felt really at home.

Improving it is impossible

The apartment was completely prepared to live in, clean, tidy and confortable We really felt like home. Susan, the host, has been incredibly attentive. The apartment is full of tips to enjoy it and info to move into Edinburgh. There is a bus stop just in front. The only bad reference I can say is that... no improvement can be made!!!!

Stunning little home from home

This is a lovely little apartment in a fabulous location, just outside the city, but not far from everything. Susan was super attentive to everything a guest may need, and there were little touches that made the stay extra enjoyable. I look forward to returning to Edinburgh and staying here again.

Comfy Edinburgh Lodging

There is no better host than Susan. She provided us with everything a person would need or want, and then some. The apartment is welcoming, comfortable, and feels like home. Transportation and shops are just outside the front door. It was wonderful and we hope to stay again.
