Loved The Property But.....

We will definitely consider coming back. There was so many positives about the apartment and Shammi was brilliant.However, there was only a 2 person settee and a futon to sit on. Luckily there was a fold up chair outside which we brought in for an extra chair.Also, the dining table is high and the chairs difficult to get on to! Like being on a bar stool. Hence uncomfortable. Was more difficult as we had family over for a meal.We did discuss this with Shammi in the hopes he might change said furniture. Sadly looking at the pics, everything looks the same.

Keys were a PAIN!!

The apartment itself is fine. As described. No AC but windows do open. Having only one set of keys would be a deal breaker if I were coming back. You have to use keys 3 times: building door, floor door then apartment door. When our group went different directions, we had to coordinate who had the key. Then you can not go back and sleep/rest because the other people can not get into the building or on the floor without a key. Very inconvenient!!

A great apartment!

We stayed for a few nights and had a great time. The apartment is conveniently located and has everything you need, including a dedicated parking space which was very handy. Shammi was excellent to deal with. Would definitely stay again if we are ever back in the area.

Scotland Holiday

Went to Scotland with friends to learn about the rich history of the Scotland and visit some distant family towns. Couldn’t have asked for a better accommodations. Located right on the water. literally a 3 minute walk to the boats. Getting around was easy. We rented a car and there was a decayed secure parking area. The apartment was well furnished and clean, the beds were cozy and overall the furnishings were lovely. Showers were a bit tricky but that’s because us Yanks do things differently. Wasn’t an issue at all. Shame was easy to communicate with and was quick to respond. The area felt safe and everything we did in town we walked from and took public transit. It’s located next to a couple proper coffee shops. Williams and Johnson and Lost in Leith were spot on. Highly recommend.

Unbelievable Good!

This flat is in a great location - 5 minutes walk from the Ocean Terminal with the Royal Yacht Britannia and plenty of places to eat. It's also well placed in the centre for The Shore and Newhaven Harbour. It’s beautifully decorated and very welcoming, Shammi the host was very informative & responsive. It’s also located round corner from a bus stop with buses heading into princess street as well as shuttle buses to the airport. I'd really recommend this accommodation, especially for a family or friends, and wouldn't hesitate to stay there again if we were to return to Edinburgh in the future.

Modern, Tasteful and Spacious.

This is the most impressive and luxurious airbnb I have ever stayed in. It is located a about 2 miles from Edinburgh city centre, but it is not a big deal as you can always catch an uber or taxi (cheaper than bus if you are travelling with three more people!). The place is very modern with an artistic touch, I really appreciate that he has obviously spent a lot of time on decorating the house. It has a very big balcony with a picnic bench for seating and parasol. Also, all amenities are easy to use and made our stay very convenient, including washer, dryer, smart tv, alexa, toaster and more! I love that he is so thoughtful to put both iPhone and android chargers in every room. Shammi's place is very clean and spacious , great for family and friends! I would highly recommend his place!

A well appointed flat, walkable to restaurants and easy access to Edinburgh center

We agree with all the positive comments that have already been left about Shammi and the LuxFlat - so we’ll say a few different things! We were really impressed that Shammi took the time to check-in with us, to make sure we’d settled in OK, and he was really helpful - and honest! - in answering our queries. We enjoyed having Alexa, as we haven’t got her at home and 3 full-length mirrors were great. We also appreciated having multi-coloured quality crockery and pots, e.g. Denby, Le Creuset, instead of predictable white IKEA! Although the different size cups and mugs were probably originally provided for different coffee styles (and, we didn’t use them, but it was great having coffee and tea choices too), it is very rare to be provided with different sizes of drinking vessels to suit all tastes - and bladder capacities! All the art was very much admired, particularly The Kiss in the main bedroom - nice touch! We have never experienced so much thoughtfulness being put into accommodation that has been listed on VRBO before and we recommend the LuxFlat in Leith without hesitation! Oh and as well as the tour bus and public buses into Edinburgh, the tram stop at Ocean Terminal opened just before we arrived - so now you can get a tram in and out too!
