Charm and great location

Incredible location on the Royal Mile and within walking distance of Waverly Train Station. Great for family of 4 (teens in smaller bedroom). Apartment is up 2 flights of curved stairs, which we didn't mind, but good to know.

We had an excellent stay! Flat was clean, easy to find once we noticed that “Fringe” was a storefront. The queen bed could use a new mattress topper as I could feel some springs, but I would still stay there again. Thanks for the instant coffee! That was a lifesaver!!!

Hi Jen, Thank you for your kind words and wonderful review! I’m thrilled to hear you had an excellent stay and that you appreciated the cleanliness and convenient location of the flat. I apologize for the discomfort with the mattress topper; we’re looking into getting that replaced. I’m glad the instant coffee came in handy. We’d love to welcome you back anytime! GuestReady Team

This was the flat of our dreams! Perfect location, perfect in every way. Everything you need was available and it was exceptional clean and tidy. There is one hitch... the stairs. We were not bothered by them, but anyone with mobility issues must keep this in mind. It took a bit to get our legs in shape, but it was worth every stair for what we consider the best flat in Edinburgh! This is not our first stay, so we speak from experience. If this flat is available for your trip, please consider it, you won't regret it.

Only issue I had during my visit was returning the keys. That key lock box on the blue door frame is TOO small for those keys and missing that little hanger inside it. We could barely fit those keys inside it. Please try it yourself and you will understand what I'm talking about
