Stair-less main door access and a private front garden.

Lovely and Convenient
Apartment was lovely. Inside was very clean with spacious bedrooms. Bathrooms are "city" small/tight. Just to note, there were few amenities ie: no paper towels/napkins to get you started, no bath washcloths, no hooks or counterspace in baths, very basic kitchen utensils/dishware. Outside front entrance was a bit messy on arrival which was disappointing. We were told we could not check in early because of cleaning crew yet it didn't look like they were recently there. All in all apt was very nice and uber friendly to the city. Parking is hard so if you have a car, find a spot and try not to move it for the weeknd.

This place is great.
This property was fantastic. Clean, well maintained, the interior is large and comfortable. The kitchen is large and you could easily make meals if desired. Has all the amenities as far as laundry, etc. The owners give great instructions on how to use everything as well as how to check in a check out making it a painless experience. My only issue is not in the owners control: the Leith Walk is totally torn up right now - it is a mess of construction so spending time there is not pleasant.

Nice property
This is a nice, clean and large unit. Very comfortable and easily within walking distance from great restaurants, convenience stores and groceries. It's on a fairly quiet street (the seagulls made all the noise)! 2nd bedroom has no closet to hang clothing and bathroom sinks are quite small, but otherwise a lovely experience. We would stay here again.
