We could not have asked for a better place to stay for our week in Edinburgh. All of the rooms are large, with big windows to let in the sunshine. The flat was clean, the beds very comfortable, and all necessary amenities provided. The kitchen was well stocked (coffee, tea, sugar, salt, pepper, some spices). The location is incredible, easily walkable to the Royal Mile, Grassmarket, New Town, Dean Village and to meeting places for tours. There is a beautiful view of the castle just outside the door. I very highly recommend this accommodation.

This was our second stay at this location and it was just as great as the first time. Location is great, management is very responsive, flat was clean and quiet. Has having you need in the kitchen, and the beds were comfortable. Even my husband, whose hobby is complaining, had nothing negative to say about the flat. And what could be better than stepping out the front door and seeing the castle? I’m hoping for a third stay next year!

Location was perfect. Everything we needed or wanted to see was a short walk or used Uber for longer distances. Flat was very nice and clean for our family of 4. Check in was super easy and owners answered any and all questions we had. Washing machine was a huge bonus. Fully functioning kitchen worked great. Plenty of space so we did not feel on top of each other. Highly recommend. Hope to be back someday.

The property was spacious and clean. Bedrooms and bathrooms more than met our needs. The location provided easy access to the Castle, Markets and Bars/Restaurants. Most everything we needed was in walking distance. The farmers market just down the block was a welcome surprise. I did not realize that the apartment was located up some stairs and did not really have any outdoor space to access except out the front door of the building.

The flat is located just behind Edinburgh Castle and very close to Princes St. The location for visiting Edinburgh could not be better! The flat is just like the photos. It has a very large living room, separate kitchen and dining area. It has two bedrooms, one with a double/queen bed with a large en-suite bathroom and a second large bedroom with three twin beds that can be configured as a king and a twin. The second bathroom is across the second bedroom. You have to go up a flight of stairs to enter the flat. The kitchen, in addition to the refrigerator, oven, stove, and microwave, has a French press, toaster and kettle. Just a couple of blocks away you have a variety of restaurants, coffee shops and pubs. We would definitely stay there again on any future trip to Edinburgh.
