We stayed at this 1 bed flat in early May '13. Initially we thought it was further from the centre than we wanted but in fact you can walk to Princes St in 20 minutes and the buses in nearby South Clerk St are very plentiful. You can also easily walk to Tollcross through the pleasant Meadows in about 20-30 minutes. The flat is on the 3rd floor but not a difficult climb at all for an able-bodied person. The views of Arthur's Seat and Salisbury Crags from the living room are spectacular and make you want to get out and climb 'em. Actually the walk to the very top takes about 30 minutes, well worth it as you get a 360 deg view of Edinburgh and even on a dull day you can see Fife and East Lothian easily. Gillian and Alistair have done everything (and more) to make visitors welcome and the attention to detail is fantastic. We shall be back!
