I thought the location was ideal. It was close to transit for arriving from the airport, the train if you're taking it, walking distance to the centre of town--I mostly just walked everywhere. It was also not on a busy road, so was quieter. I loved that it was a little cozy refuge where I could cook for my daughter and her friends when they came by, or just retreat to by myself when I needed a little rest from the busyness of visiting and exploring.
Coming from Canada, I struggled with the water heater for the shower, even though there are directions. Thankfully, my daughter has a similar one in her apartment so could sort me out. Also there was a little smell of damp in the bedroom, but maybe that's just how things go when you are by the sea.

The apartment is very spacious, with a full dining room/kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, with plenty of space in all three. The kitchen has everything you’d need to prepare meals. Shampoo and soap are provided so no need to bring any.
Apartment is located very well, very short walk from tram and bus stops (and only 20m walk to town on foot), with a Tesco Express nearby with everything you need. Safe area, didn’t feel unsafe walking back in the evenings.
Hosts were very helpful, responding quickly to any questions we had, and let up drop our bags early coming in from a morning flight.
Great value for money, and the accommodation contributed to us having a very pleasant trip. If coming back to Edinburgh again, I would book this accommodation.
Minor nitpicks, nothing that really brought down our stay:
The corridor into the apartment appears slightly sketchy the first time you enter, but after the first time going through, it’s not a big worry at all.
One of the lights in the bathroom would flicker if turned on for the first time in a while, but it would settle after a minute.
You need to make sure the door to the apartment locks properly, as you can close it without it locking, but as long as you check before leaving the apartment, it’s not a concern.

Heel fijn verblijf, op 25 minuten lopen van het centrum van edinburgh of de bus-, trein- en tramstation op ca 3 min lopen. Aankomst was fijn geregeld, alles was erg schoon en lekker warm toen we binnen kwamen (in oktober is dat erg fijn). Keuken leek kleiner op de foto maar was in werkelijkheid best groot. ‘S ochtends kunnen ontbijten met het zicht op een eekhoorn in de tuin. Erg fijn bed en beddengoed.

The location was excellent for access to Edinburgh and surrounding attractions. Public transport was cheap and regular. Flat spacious had good kitchen facilities. Bathroom was reasonable. Hosts very pleasant and responds to queries quickly and will let you leave luggage if you are too early for check in.
Flat extremely cold on arrival, it was a bitter cold day and it then took quite a while for the flat to get warm. Information form hosts is scant to say the least re operation of the facilities in the flat, shops and nearby transport, no emergency numbers. Only mirror was over the wash hand basin in the bathroom. Shower over bath and no bath mat for bath. No TV in lounge. TV in bedroom and you need to use your own media account to make use of it as it is not connected to terrestrial television.
