Great location! Very spacious. We got rapid response to all our questions. It is on the 4th floor (with no elevator) which will be important to note for anyone with limited mobility.

Great Location, Great Place ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This property is great. Well cared for and the host was attentive without being obtrusive. The flat was clean and well appointed, perfect for family of 4. Check in instructions were perfect, access was very easy. You can’t beat this location. Right in the middle of the Royal Mile and about 10 minute walk (uphill but rather easy) to the Edinburgh Castle. Easy access to the coach tours, short walk to both New Town and Old Town shops, pubs, and restaurants. Easy walking distance from/to the Waverley rail station, but take Market Street to North Bank Street for a gentler walk uphill with your luggage. The flat is modern and comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped and everything worked as expected. Although the toilet and bath is a little narrow, it appears recently renovated, looks great and has a great towel warmer, when the heat is on. Minor caution on the stairs, 4 flights may be a bit much for some younger or older guests. My family and I had no issues so not a concern, just for awareness. The place has pretty much everything you need for a nice short or extended stay. Great place, great location, great host.

Fantastic location in Old town. A few minutes walk to Edinburgh Castle. Up four flights of stairs which we were aware of. This apartment won't suit people with mobility issues as there isn't a lift. The first thing you see when you open the front door is a water stain on wall in living room/kitchen. Stale smell in living room/kitchen. Possibly from smoking. Bathroom is small but functional. Kitchen is fully equipped, fridge/freezer, kettle, toaster, microwave, oven. Cutlery could have been cleaner. Wash up liquid would have been helpful. Overall, the location of this apartment is what makes it a winner and would recommend it for this reason.

The apartment is beautifully renovated and very spacious. It is also in a great neighborhood. One important note is that it is a 4th floor walk-up with no elevator. This is something I wasn’t aware of and it should be clearly indicated because not everyone could make this climb. I was traveling with my husband and daughter and after the initial surprise and inconvenience of carrying our luggage up all those stairs, we were very happy with the space. It is a beautiful oasis in the city but it can only be appreciated by those with good cardiovascular fitness.
