The University is on the South Side beside the Old Town. The New Town is walkable (up hill) or a short busride away. Both Stockbridge and Leith are a short bus ride or a longer walk away (I've commuted to the University from both) East/West/Mid Lothian are all out of town, so probably best to avoid for visitors. Edinburgh airport is also just out of town and on the worst commuting route into central Edinburgh. Edinburgh is fairly well served with buses and taxis but the central area (Old & New towns) is compact and you can walk to most places you may want to visit without difficulty.
