Chair was dropped off early and ready for us when we arrived. Chair was in good Repair, functioning extremely well. Put a lot of miles on that chair, allowing our daughter to remain with us for the few days we had left on our trip after injuring her ankle.

The accessibility of Edinburgh was as I expected with some cobbled streets and busy crowds but I was able to get around. Edinburgh is a historic city and whilst many of the older buildings are not accessible there are many shops and restaurants and facilities that are.

There during fringe festival and we seemed to be staying in the heart of the festival. So, at times it was difficult to get around. Other than that I was happy to have had the scooter.
