Property Title • Jun 14 - Jun 17, 2026

Hi Matthew, Thank you for your booking. I'm looking forward to hosting you 😊 I've put quite a bit of effort into making my place nice for AirBnB so please look after it 🙏🏼 The earliest check in is 3pm. If you could let me know when you plan to check in that would be great. In exceptional circumstances I can sometimes offer early checkin. Here's some information that will help you get around the flat. Most of these are straightforward, the general rule of thumb is that I would expect you to treat my flat as you would your own: take the shoes off when in the flat, don’t smoke inside the flat, avoid playing loud music after 10pm etc... Note I live in the place most of the time, so it will have some of my belongings in, but there is wardrobe space in both rooms. 🚪Doors There is a lockbox, details will be provided prior to your stay. Please don't forgot to return them to the key safe at the end of your stay! 🔑 🌐 WiFi The WiFi network is called SmokeyWhiskey and the password is peatmonster1 🚘 Parking There is paid parking in a private card park on Carlton Road, right next to my flat. Let me know in advance if you want to make use of this so I can send you full details. You will be fully reimbursed for the parking. But ask about where to park. 🌡Heating You can control the heating using the Hive thermostat which is in the living room on the wall. There is a boost button on the top of it, or you can turn the dial. 🎵 Music In the living room there is a HiFi system - if you press and hold the button on the Bluetooth device on top of the amplifier you should then be able to connect to "B06 Pro". Be CAREFUL to make sure the volume is turned down so you don't blow the speakers when you first turn it on. ☕️ Coffee & Food Coffee, tea, as well as mugs, can be found in the cupboards in the kitchen. Coffee pods are complementary. Please feel free to make use of the spices and condiments. Any alcohol in the fridge is fair game 🍸 🪣 Appliances In the kitchen, you have an oven, stove, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, blender & toaster, which are all easy to use. 📽 TV There is a Samsung Smart TV with Netflix & Prime Video - use the remote on the coffee table. Let me know if you need any help. 🚮 Waste and Recycling: The black bin in the kitchen is refuse, the other one is recycling. Glass should not be put in the recycling - leave that separately. If you need to take rubbish out then the bins are on Carlton Road, just before the big arch (turn right and right again when you come out the building). 🐶🐱 Pets Please let me know if you wish to bring a pet. Pets are not allowed to be on the sofa or the beds, there will be additional cleaning charge of £110 for pets hairs on bed linen or the soft furnishings. 📍The full address is Flat 11, 35 Leith Street, Edinburgh, EH1 3AT. The flat is on the 3rd floor. And don't be confused about the first door you come to which says "11 & 12" - it's not locked, go straight through and you'll see the entrance to flat 11. 🧡 Finally, This is my home when I’m not travelling, so I’ve tried to make it cosy and welcoming for you too. If anything feels off or could be improved, even something small, just let me know — I’ll do my best to sort it out. And if you’re happy, a little 5★ love always means a lot!😊

¡Hola, Mark! Me alegra que pudieras confirmar tan rápido. Mi pareja (Jess) y yo estaremos de gira por Escocia con mis padres durante 3 semanas, ya que mi padre es de Edimburgo. Viajamos desde Australia. Nuestro vuelo llega increíblemente temprano ~7:00 a. m., así que esperaba conversar sobre cómo podemos hacer el registro anticipado. Obviamente, falta mucho tiempo, pero estaré encantado de proporcionarte efectivo/transferencia por un tiempo adicional (el mediodía/1:00 p. m. sería genial). Entiende si no es posible. ¡Gracias por tu tiempo y gracias de nuevo! Hablamos pronto.

Thank you for all the details Matthew! It will be a pleasure to host you all. Unfortunately, I already have a reservation with guests checking out on the same day as your check-in, Anyway, I'll talk to the cleaning team so they can let me know as soon as they finish preparing the apartment that day 🙏 (they often manage to finish by 1 pm! But unfortunately, that depends on the condition they find the place in).

Anyway, In case they can not finish earlier and you need somewhere to store your luggage while you wait then there is a service called Luggage Hero. It's like Airbnb for bags - shops will keep hold of your bags for a small fee. There's one of Broughton Street which is very close to my flat and there are a number of nice cafes on that road. Here's the link: (https://app.luggagehero.com/shop-details/629604dac16ad871b03f737d;bags=1;from=202306131200;to=202306131300;source=app) I hope this helps! 🙏☺️
