Edinburgh in July
Overall the property was great. There was a little grocery nearby to buy morning coffee and bakery goods, although a coffee maker would have been welcomed. We able to walk to many attractions and take in the quaint streets and buildings along our way. We enjoyed our stay and made ourselves at home in this house. I was disappointed that was not an actual clothes dryer as illustrated in the property details, but just a rack. But we were able to "go with the flow" and had had a wonderful time! Thank you!The communications with our host was very good and generally timely.

Lovely apartment - needs some maintenance.
The main bathroom (bath/shower/toilet/sinks) is in the lower level. The toilet does not work. It takes hours to come to enough pressure to flush each time.
Property manager sent a plumber, made no difference. Bath/shower drains very slowly, as do the sinks.
The only other option is a toilet/sink on the main level.
