Pattie LaCroix

Hi Pattie, Thank you for booking! I’m looking forward to hosting you 😊 I really appreciate you being part of the Airbnb community and for taking care of my home during your stay 🙏🏼 Here are some details to help you navigate the flat: 🕒 Check-in Check-in is from 3pm. Please let me know your estimated arrival time. 🏡 House Rules The general rule of thumb is to treat the flat as you would your own: 👞 Shoes off inside the flat. 🚭 No smoking indoors. 🔇 Keep noise levels down after 10pm. 📦 Personal Belongings I live here most of the time, so some of my belongings will be in the flat, but there is wardrobe space in both rooms. 🚪 Doors & Keys The lockbox code will be provided before your stay. Please return the keys to the safe at check-out 🔑 🌐 WiFi Network: SmokeyWhiskey Password: peatmonster1 🌡 Heating Control the heating via the Hive thermostat in the living room. Press the boost button on top or turn the dial. 🎵 Music Sonos speakers are in the kitchen. Connect to WiFi and cast from Spotify or Apple Music to "Kitchen". 🪣 Appliances The kitchen includes an oven, stove, microwave, fridge, dishwasher & toaster – all easy to use. ☕ Coffee & Food Tea, coffee, mugs, spices & condiments are available in the kitchen. Feel free to help yourself! Any alcohol in the fridge is fair game 🍸 📽 TV Samsung Smart TV with Netflix & Prime Video – remote is on the coffee table. Let me know if you need help. 🚘 Parking Paid parking is available at a private car park on Carlton Road, right next to the flat. Let me know in advance if you need details. 🚮 Waste & Recycling Black bin = general waste. Recycling bin = no glass (leave separately). External bins are on Carlton Road (turn right twice when exiting the building). 🐶🐱 Pets Let me know if you’re bringing a pet. Pets are not allowed on sofas or beds – extra cleaning charges apply for pet hair on linen or soft furnishings. 🧡 Finally… I’m new to hosting and have put my heart into making this space as welcoming as possible. If you have any suggestions on how I can improve, I’d truly appreciate your feedback! 5⭐ reviews really help me grow on Airbnb, so if you enjoyed your stay, I’d be incredibly grateful if you could leave one. It makes a huge difference! Enjoy your stay! 🎉

Hi Pattie, It will be a real pleasure to host you all in your first time in Edinburgh! :)

Unfortunately there are guests checking out the morning of the day you arrive. If 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! 🙏☺️

Hi Pattie, Of course. We usually change the codes so tomorrow I will have yours and I will send it 🙏😊

Just a quick note.😊 As you probably know, I rent out the flat while I'm travelling, so I'm currently in a different time zone. I'll be available around your usual check-in time (from 3:00 pm), but if you already know you'll be arriving significantly later, or if there's anything you might need before check-in, I'd really appreciate it if you could let me know by the day before. That way I'll be sure to see your message in time and do my best to help with anything you need. Thank you, and I look forward to hosting you!

Just a quick note for your check-in tomorrow. You’ll find a lockbox on the wooden doorframe at 35 Leith Street, it’s the second one down. The code is 3108. The building entrance is right next to Maki & Ramen. Once inside, head up to the third floor for flat 11. There’s a door marked 11 & 12 that looks locked, but it isn’t , You can just go through. Check-in is from 3pm onwards unless we’ve arranged something different. If anything isn’t clear or you run into any issues, just message me.😊 P.S. You’ll also receive full instructions with photos via Airbnb on the day, this is just so you’ve got the code (3108) handy.

I know you've just checked in, but just a quick note to say that when you do checkout I need you to put the keys back in the lockbox where you found them. It's the second one from the top and the code is 3108. Also, Just a quick note to help you enjoy the flat comfortably. As the building is historic and the bathroom design is being updated little by little, please make sure to keep the shower head pointing downwards (not towards the curtain) and use moderate water pressure rather than the maximum setting. This small tip really helps keep everything working well and makes your stay more pleasant. Thank you so much! 🙏🏼😊

Hi Pattie, hope you've settled in nicely. Let me know if you need anything or if anything isn't upto scratch. If anything isn't 5* worthy I'd much prefer if you communicate with me and I can try and make it right 🙏🏻

Just a quick reminder that we're in different time zones. 😊 Of course, I'll be available around your usual check-out time, but if you know you'll be leaving significantly earlier, or if there's anything you'd like to ask before you check out, I'd really appreciate it if you could let me know that today. That way I can make sure I'm available at the right time if needed. Thank you, and I hope you've had a lovely stay!

I hope you've had a really lovely stay! Tha k you for the details 🙏😊 Yes please, we just need to put the keys back in the lockbox when you checkout. It's the second top one and the code is 3108. Thanks! 🙏🏼
