This property was perfect for our short trip to Edinburgh, not too far to walk into the centre and a supermarket across the road. The apartment was clean, warm and extremely comfortable. Lucy was an excellent host, communication was excellent. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend.

Lucy is a wonderful host, very communicative and all info super clear. Top floor, so be prepared for that, but a beautiful building, lovely view of the hills over the rooftops and a very comfortable and clean flat. Suited us perfectly. Lovely area too. Lots of local independent cafes. Great bus connections. Would 100% be my first choice if in Edinburgh again.

Perfect for our stay!

Cute and situated in a great location; close enough to the city center (10-15 minute walk through the park) but far enough so you feel like a true Scot! We loved it.

It was nice and clean but for anyone with limited mobility it should be noted that there’s 3 serious flights of stairs to climb before you get to the door. So if you have heavy luggage or elderly people keep that in mind Communication was fantastic and the flat has everything you’ll need

Great Apartment

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lucy and James apartment. It is clean, comfortable and well equiped with everything we needed. The walk to the Royal Mile and Castle is an easy 20 minute stroll with plenty of cafes and bars along the way. Communication was excellent and check in and out went very smoothly.

Great flat near Edinburgh Centre but not too near. Easy 25 minute walk into centre or buses close by. Flat was comfortable with a very well equipped kitchen. ( I only wished for French press instead of the Nespresso). We enjoyed our stay and the host was excellent. The flat is on the top floor with no lift, so be aware of that. Don’t be put off by the entryway and corridor. It’s not the best but the flat is great. There is a pedestrian crosswalk just in front that you hear very often. I didn’t bother me, but people should be aware if they want absolute quiet. Would stay here again!

Edinburgh trip

The apartment is terrific and worked perfectly for us. It is a third floor walk up apartment, which was a little challenging for the older members of our party. But all in all, a really wonderful apartment conveniently located on several bus lines with easy access to downtown and all of Edinburgh. We had a great time and are happy to recommend this apartment.

Perfect location

A clean , comfortable two bedroom apartment, tastefully decorated and with all facilities including a Nespresso coffee machine. Located a stone’s throw from the Meadows and within easy access to the city centre. We could not fault it in any way. Our only problem, with two of us being in our mid seventies, was that the stairs presented quite a challenge.

Great location for Fringe

Good value for this time of year if you want a place within walking distance of most events. Very nice inside. Two good double beds in spacious rooms. Kitchen bigger than it looked. Fully equipped. Spiral staircase for access to top floor but not a problem for us. Communication was swift and pleasant. Nice stay . Bathroom door needs a lock but no embarrassing openings!

This Apartment-Flat is accurately listed except we may have missed that it was a 3rd floor walk up. Don’t let the dreary Stairwell scare you when you first enter location. Nice to have a small grocer across the street.

Cheerful & homey retreat in the city

Great, very comfortable apartment located about a 30-minute walk or 15- minute bus ride from City Centre train station and many attractions. Lucy was responsive and helpful. The bathtub was a nice treat, and the beds were very comfortable. Although a no smoking apartment, smoke smells did waft through the kitchen vent, just a flag if you're super sensitive. The neighbourhood features convenient and some unique shops, and a variety of restaurants. Shout out to Sambuca where we enjoyed a great homemade Italian dinner.

4th Floor apartment NO LIFT

It would’ve been nice to know that there was no lift in this hotel before I booked it, somehow I missed that. So when Me, with my broken foot, my mother with her bad hips, and my husband, with his bad knees arrived with our suitcases and backpacks, we were shocked that we had to climb four stories of stairs.

Really nice Edinburgh flat and owner kindly helped us out when our flight was cancelled

We had a lovely stay at the apartment. Location was perfect for us. It is within walking distance of my bother's house where he was hosting a family Christmas get together for a few days. There were some communication issues in the beginning getting the address and the entry code to the flat but all got sorted out in the end. What was really great about this experience was the owner really helped us out. Our flight back to the US was cancelled right at the last minute. We managed to rebook the flight but were left stranded at the airport by British Airways who were extremely unhelpful. So we were looking for a place to stay for the night. I contacted the owner explained the situation and asked if the flat was free and if we could stay another night there. Within minutes she replied. The flat was free and the owner was kind enough to let us stay another night. The thing that made this so incredible was that she told us that she would not charge us for the extra night. Now that's what I call service. It really helped destress what was a very stressful situation. Lucy, thank you so much for helping us out.

Disappointed accommodation

On arrival we opened the buildings front door to be met by a dark narrow and building in disrepair walks and ceiling paint peeling and hanging with narrow spiralling staircase that needed a deep clean and smelt old and damp. Once to the top of the building out of breath carrying luggage the landing and front door needed a good clean. Once in the accommodation the carpets needed a good clean, dirt stains and ground in stains.. The kitchen looked like children were still living there with letter magnets ect all over the fridge door, walls needed a clean. The loung chair and sofa filthy again needing a clean. Furniture old and chipped all need replacing for the amount charged. Under the sink rags ect just thrown in another cupboard used I guess for storage cleaning products again right mess. I’m no snob by far , this accomadation was not worth the money and I wouldn’t stay here again or recommend this property Sorry .
