Good central location. Property as described.

Our apartment was quite lovely, like stepping back in time, but with modern amenities. Great location on the Royal mile. We were concerned because other reviews mentioned The windows not having sufficient coverage to blackout the street lights, but they must have added nice wooden shades That worked perfectly. The only two issues I would say are the couch, which is not comfortable at all, more like sitting on a cardboard box and the bed. It’s a pretty, Brass style bed, but is on springs, which are very loud during the night when you’re turning over and we kept waking each other up, at first we thought it was a Car horn! Other than that, we were very comfortable.

The flat was lovely and central, although being up two flights of stairs isn't the best if you have a lot of luggage. There was a good amount of space and it was warm and cosy when we arrived. Overall we had a nice stay there. I would say that it would have been great to have been able to control the heating, which seemed locked into certain settings, so we were too hot at times. The mattress was a bit uncomfortable and needs changing and the shower wasn't the best. Also, the lock box outside the flat didn't work and we had to call the management company to find out where to leave the keys - which was stressful at 6am when you have a taxi waiting to take you to the airport. Despite me calling them again afterwards to reiterate where we had left the keys, they called me later on to ask where they were - which left me feeling like I had done something wrong despite following their instructions. So not a great end to the trip and I don't know if I would book a flat again when it became a bit of a hassle.
