We had a wonderful stay here for our week in Edinburgh! Amazing access to the University & all other areas of the city. Access to a diversity of fantastic food (we ate Scottish, Japanese, Spanish, Italian & Chinese). The home was in great shape & perfect for us: 2 BRs, good bath & kitchen/dining enough for a small Thanksgiving dinner. Lastly, the Old Bell Inn—only steps away from the front door—is a gem. So grateful for the memories. Thank you, Alison!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The area is easily accessible on foot, by bus, or by taxi/Uber. The beds were comfortable and we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Booking was straightforward. Host and managing company communications were clear and prompt with useful, friendly advice provided. Access was clear and our arrival was straightforward. The apartment was clean and bright. The location was excellent for Summerhall and a short walk to the Meadows. No problems with any Uber or Deliveroo drivers finding the apartment. Thank you for a great stay.

I stayed here for two nights with my family for my graduation at the UoE. The location is excellent, the apartment was very clean and well-equipped, and the host was great at communicating. I would definitely return.
