Great location to explore Edinburgh!

We had just three nights, but the apartment worked well as our home base - 2 couples and a six-year-old. Grocery store nearby allowed us to make use of the kitchen for light breakfasts (coffee, tea & sugar provided.) and the washer and drying rack were very helpful since we packed light. The street and neighborhood are relatively quiet. All in all, perfect for our group.

Can't beat the location!

My husband and I, along with our three children (14,12,9) stayed here for four nights as we exlpored Ediburgh. It's a lot of walking and up-hill to the castle (Royal Mile) but you can't beat the location. Flat offered a warm place to sleep with comfy beds and hot water. It was nothing fancy but just what we needed.

Amazing apartment, spotless and had extras such as tea, coffee, and shampoo etc. Very close to the Grassmarket, could even see the castle out of the window. My only negative was the stairs which weren’t mentioned before booking. This wouldn’t stop me staying here again but would have been nice to know.

Cozy stay by the Scottish high street

Super clean like a hotel. really comfortable and well maintained. really good location with a nice little pub right next door that plays live music. Not a good place if you can't do stairs though as there are a couple of narrow flights that are challenging with a suitcase and no lift up. But otherwise we loved our stay there and would definitely book again

Great Location, with quirks

The location of this flat is fantastic - cannot be beat. It is quiet and easy to reach. The flat itself is fine. It could be cleaner (e.g., hairs on the ironing board under the bed) and the shower cycled from hot to cold on its own. Overall, the flat is a good place to stay due to the location.

Near to everything

We were going to be in Edinburgh for 3 days with no car. This place was close enough to walk from the train station , to the castle, royal mile, old town, new town, Deans Village, Arthur’s seat All of it was in easy reach! There was a full kitchen and a convenience store type market just on opposite side of block.

Great apartment in central location

The apartment is spacious and well equipped. Even a small balcony for two people is available. The location is central, the city center is within walking distance. The only criticism concerns the communication with the property management: despite several emails and a phone call, they did not manage to unlock the promised free parking for us.

Very central property with easy access to town centre and surrounding areas. The property was spacious however one of the double sockets is loose (please do not use) and the iron had wires exposed when went to use it also do not use, plus the plug extension had wires exposed.

Not as described

Inaccurate/misleading listing & lack of cleanliness detracted from our stay.Positives -Barry was always quick to respond, including arranging repairs to the gas boiler (so we had hot water) on a Sunday.Apartment is within easy walking distance to most POI.The area is nice & quiet with very little street noise.Negatives -Listing inaccuracyParking; there is no On-site parking as listed at the time of our stay (I note this has been updated since our stay). The street parking is a Max. 4 hours during the day, or for Permit Holders (the spaces were full most of the time by Permit Holders) so this is not really a genuine option. The Castle Terrace Carpark is only a few hundred meters away (cost 36GBP/day).Living Area; the Photo Gallery has two separate photos titled "Living Area" as well as other photos of the bedrooms suggesting a separate living area. The reality is that the living area is the sofa bed & low table in one of the bedrooms (I guess if I had studied the photos more closely, I would have worked out that the "Living Area" photos were just close ups of the sofa bed).As four adults travelling around the UK by car for several weeks, onsite parking & living space were important factors in choosing where to stay. To find that neither of these were there was very disappointing.Cleanliness;The entry into the building is quite run down & dark.We had to clean inside the washing machine before using.The bathroom had several areas of mould & an unpleasant odour.
