This apartment building is in a fantastic location in New Town, just a short walk up The Mound to Lawnmarket and High Street. It is also located just a few blocks from Waverly Station, so it's a convenient location if traveling by UK rail. The neighborhood is busy and a bit noisy at night, but the accommodations are very comfortable. The kitchen is well-equipped and there are food markets nearby, in case the countless dining options within a 1/4 mile don't appeal. Note that there is no lift and all accommodations are up at least 2 flights of steps. Would definitely stay here again.

LOVED this property. It was like Home Away from Home. It had Everything we needed. We walked to the Royal Mile, the Edinburgh Castle, Hollyroodhouse Palace, gift shops as well as numerous Beautiful lush parks. We explored a lot and got a TON of great photos as memories. We could get an Espresso or a Guiness at sny point nearby. Best location!!

The apartment was extremely clean. They came in and took care of the apartment cleanliness halfway through our stay so it was not intrusive and very welcomed to see. The support staff we're very friendly and easy to work with. The only downside is that the apartment did not have a lift, but that is quite all right. I would definitely stay in this property again it was centrally located in the city and for the price that was an excellent choice.

Property location is great and view so nice but it can be little noisy as it is in central. Check out time is not
Flexible otherwise overall experience great.
The apartment was very well equipped, spacious and comfortable. And the location was ideal - within walking distance of the old town and both the tram and the train.

The property was well located with many of the local attractions being within walking distance. Saying that, we are walkers so it is based upon that assessment. The communicaftion (once we sorted through some technical issues) was easy to underatand and timely.
Parking is the only issue (if you have a car) as the neareat parking garage is 10 minutes away.

This was a good location. 15 min walk to the castle and also 15 min to Royal Mile. Near George St and Princes St that was great for coffee, restaurants and shopping. I can only give it 4 stars because we stayed for 3 days and we did not have a dresser or suitcase rack in our apt so we were living from our suitcases on the floor
The nice surprise that I did not know was we had a washing machine. This was more of a AIRBB that anything else. I would recommend it
