Excellent option for a family stay

As a family, we stayed 8 nights and just loved this location and property. It was an excellent home away from home, with a great kitchen, laundry options, plenty of space for downtime, two showers and a superb location for seeing Edinburgh. We were able to walk to the Royal Mile, Edinburgh train station, the castle, University of Edinburgh and lots of other locations very easily.

The Best Vacation Ever

We loved it. My husband, my adult son, and I could not have been happier with the location, the openness and size of the Flat (tons of closet space), and thrilled to have a washer/dryer. We walked and walked this magnificent City. There is no need to bring anything but sneakers, and be prepared for hills and many steps. Uber's were great, but we preferred to walk and walk. Our hosts were great, responding before the trip with any questions and even providing local bars to watch football or rugby, which we did. Food was excellent everywhere. Being in the old town right below the castle was incredible. Walk out each day, and there it was. I plan to come back and rent the same Flat with a girlfriend. Excellent, Excellent, Excellent

Home Away from Home

This lovely apartment is everything that is described in the write up. Location, spacious, clean, beautiful and comfortable. Communication was great, any questions answered right away. We are four busy adults who easily walked everywhere, even to store our luggage at a hostel and walk to a Hairy Coo bus tour, that’s how convenient the location is. You can see the castle from the front steps, market with delicious food is every Saturday, just steps from the front door. My only other comment is that washer dryer combo is a frustrating piece of machinery, so plan to wash clothes and hang to dry. Don’t hesitate-book it.

Amazing!

My brother and I stayed here and were just blown away by how easy the check in process was (we stayed in London beforehand and it was not seamless at all). The property was very conveniently located by the castle, the Royal mile, places to eat, cafes, etc. the apartment was beautiful and so spacious, the owner was very communicative leading up to check in. They answered any and all questions and it was overall a fantastic experience. If and when I come to Edinburgh again, I hope that this apartment is available to book because I 10/10 will book it again!

Walked to everything

The location is amazing and the space is fantastic. Big kitchen and living room. We were all very comfortable. We walked to everything in town. Wi-Fi was good, but a weak signal if you were outside the kitchen, which was sometimes annoying. We used the washer a lot and loved the kitchen rack for drying clothes. The bathrooms were nice sizes with a big tube that came in handy with kids. It was quiet and safe. We loved all that Edinburgh had to offer and walked to the castle for visit and then the Military Tatoo. Also walked to Arthur’s Seat, the Dome, Underground Tour and Fringe entertainment.
