1 week/Week to week short term let for PG students

**EDIT: currently occupied with possibility of later short term tenancy.**

This is for one week - with the possibility of extension- in a small room with a double bed in a shared flat beginning in September.

We’re a mature (40s) couple living in a clean, quiet, modern flat looking to host an international/new to town postgraduate student temporarily whilst they seek permanent accommodation. It’s preferable for us to have someone close to our own age range; no couples or pets also.

I know firsthand how difficult it can be to find a room/flat at the beginning of the semester, so I’m here to help!

One week beginning mid-end of August, with the potential to extend on a week to week basis through the end of September, is what is being offered. If our arrangement is a good fit, then we will offer an additional week/s based on how well you get on.

This is a small bedroom (not en-suite, but you’ll have your own bathroom down the hall) on the first floor of a new-build flat. There is a lift, so it’s completely accessible. You’ll have access to kitchen cooking facilities and space for your own groceries. Bills are included in the rent and we aren’t asking for a deposit, just each week paid upfront.

The flat is in a quiet family-oriented/working class neighbourhood, with excellent access to very nearby bus stops that take you to the city centre in ~30 minutes. There is also a cycle path right behind that flat that takes you straight to Leith or Haymarket. Plenty of shops are close by.

We’re both international (myself a recent MSc grad), very open minded, alt-type of people, disability/neurodivergent/minority/queer friendly, and pretty quiet but can get chatty if one of our special interests is brought up. We don’t party and absolutely don’t want any partiers (or party guests brought home), but enjoy the occasional after work beer or cocktail. Smoking isn’t allowed inside but vaping is fine. Someone with common interests would be ideal but not an imperative- we both like history, horror films, punk and metal music, hiking/the outdoors, museums, reading, and trying new international cuisines.

We will have a subletting document for you and ourselves to sign that outlines our expectations for living here (regarding things like cleanliness, safety, rental terms, etc) so please bear that in mind.
