Great spot for Edinburgh stay
This was a wonderful spot as home base for my family while we explored Edinburgh. The tram stop is just across the street so easy travel to sightseeing. Three small but comfortable bedrooms, a kitchen with appliances, and a living room with two couches and a TV. No problems with power, temperature, water, etc. There is only one toilet but two separate shower/bath rooms. There can be some noise from the street but rare. Not a good choice if you can't keep your own noise low because of thin walls between the rooms and to your neighbors.
