Lovely, bright living space. Lots of stairs!
I liked the living space in the property - amazing big windows making it bright and airy. It was also really handy to have 2 free off-road parking spaces.
We walked into the Royal Mile which takes about 20 mins, so didn't feel too far out of town at all.
The bedrooms were fine, although one of the upstairs bedrooms only has a skylight and no window, which was disappointing, and it was tricky to close the skylight blinds.
Some of the internal doors and the stairs were creaky which was a bit annoying in the middle of the night.
But overall we enjoyed our stay.

Great property and great staff.
Property was excellent and in a great location. Close to what’s needed but off the main road so quiet for rest. Communication was excellent too with specifically the property manager/owner Laren being one of the most helpful people I’ve ever dealt with. Absolute pleasure.
