Penthouse Apartment Sleeps 11

It's an apartment with easy access to Edinburgh, you can park at the door, it has everything you need for a family or large group and it's very convenient.

They request a deposit to be paid by bank transfer, although this is stated under "Important Information." I didn't notice, and honestly, it's a pain to send the transfer and have it arrive before our stay. And then, even though they returned it to us 7 days later, since you can't see the owner, if they had told us something was broken, it would have been their word against ours, and I didn't like that. However, as I mentioned, there was no damage, and our deposit was returned seven days later.

The apartment is very cosy. It is close to public transportation, bus stops are just 5 minutes walk away. Lots of spaces to accomodate our family size.

There is no lift to the apartment which will make it difficult for elderly and also carrying large luggages.

A family home with all amenities including clean towels in each bedrooms. 2 bath/toilets very clean and well appointed. Kitchen had all equipment, you may think of! Microwave, hobs, coffee maker, fridge freezer, crockery, etc it was a family home! Parking available. You can leave your car here and use public buses to go into edinburgh city to avoid hassle finding expensive parking. You have to walk around royal mile and then would need to reach your car parked elsewhere while you can catch bus from anywhere to the property! It takes 20-30 mins from edinburgh centre to property. Prompt return of deposit money within a week after stay. They even found my phone charger and posted it back to me! Very very helpful 4 bedrooms on 2 levels with one bath/toilets on each level. One with bath tub and electric hot shower and another with mains walk in shower. Very nice Our kids enjoyed train spotting on rail tracks behind property. The train sounds were not intrusive when windows closed.

Its not a criticism but it was on 3rd/4th floor without lift. So if you have elderly travellers slightly unfit, they might struggle. It is best for young family.

The location

Not enough bathroom facilities considering the property sleeps 11. one of the bathrooms being en-suite made it difficult. Needs at least another bathroom and separate toilet for the 9 people we had. Not enough toilet rolls / tea towels. Kitchen, lounge and dining are all too small for a large group of people.
