Martin was in communication with me before the stay, sent easy to follow directions a as bd the location was amazing. Within a block of the museum, Scotty the dog and the Royal Mile. The variety of restaurants and pubs close by fit every budget. I would stay there again.

We had an excellent stay. The check in process was smooth and we were even allowed to drop our bags off several hours before check in. You cannot beat this location. It is in the heart of Old Town directly next to tons of attractions, pubs and restaurants. The flat itself is lovely and comfortable. We would absolutely stay here again.

We spent a few nights here while exploring Edinburgh and it definitely exceeded expectations. We wanted to stay someplace that was walkable to everything we wanted to see and this apartment certainly was. Just around the corner from a fairly famous pub, this is pretty much an equal distance from Edinburgh Castle and Palace of Holyroodhouse, but just off the Royal Mile, so tucked away from all the tourist traffic. You'll get a bit of street noise, but not much and given the location that's pretty much par for the course. You either have convenience or total quiet-it's not possible to have both if you're staying near the Royal Mile. The apartment was clean, well decorated and spacious for two people, with a comfortable bed, well appointed kitchen and a good washer/dryer. It also has a nice selection of Scottish based books and movies and Jennifer welcomed us with wine and shortbread, a great touch. Communication with Jennifer was easy and she was always quick to respond. She was wonderful regarding check in and was very flexible, which worked great for us as our travel plans day to day weren't set in stone. This apartment felt like a home away from home for us and the location can't be beat. So happy we found it!
