Everything you need
Great location close to main attractions of the city. Easy access to public transportation via short walk. Lots of restaurants, cafes and grocery nearby. Full laundry in apartment was a bonus to have. The place was tidy, however the high traffic touch areas on the walls and doors could use a deep cleaning. Overall a wonderful place to stay for our 5 days.

The apartment was perfect for my daughter & me.
The location, two separate bedrooms with comfortable big beds were a big plus. But best of all was the washer & DRYER! Most apartments I’ve rented have a washer, but no dryer. Only suggestion is to provide more towels. We’d stay here again if we return to Edinburgh.

Our Four-day Stay in Edinburgh
Being from the states, we forgot that the first floor overseas is NOT the ground floor. We had very heavy luggage and there is no lift. So we three 60+ women had to find a way to get it all up 27 steps! The apartment has wonderful beds! But there is no living room, as it appears in the pictures. The couch is in one of the bedrooms. The kitchen was adequate - we didn't do any cooking but there is a dishwasher and appliances to make tea and coffee. The bathroom is large, but I would recommend some kind of non-slip mat for the shower as the tub is very slippery. The washer/dryer worked well. There was a lot of graffiti outside the apartment, but once inside we felt safe. There was a lot of trash on the street outside the apartment so leaving the windows open wasn't an option. There was a Hop On/Hop Off bus stop right across the street, which was very convenient.

Decent flat in the theatre district
This is a nice flat with in walking distance of old and new town. Barry was prompt in responding to any questions before our stay. Self check in was a breeze and we were even allowed to check in early (for a fee). Which was worth it since we had an early arrival flight and could go directly to the flat with our luggage and relax for a bit before heading out for the afternoon. Our only disappointment was that we were hoping to use the kitchen facilities to cook breakfast daily and there was not a usable frying pan. We did use the oven once to heat up a pre made dinner. Be prepared to purchase a few extra supplies if you are planning on using the kitchen during your stay. The beds are very comfortable with down comforters that will keep you toasty warm. One thing to note if your not use to staying in the heart of a city is the pedestrian and street noise you will hear. The flat is near the corner of a busy road. It is not too bad, just something to note so you are aware you will not be staying in a quiet residential location. However that does mean there are lots of restaurants, shops, and theatres right around the corner.

Nice apartment.
Overall nice flat...free Netflix, comfy beds, amenities all very close by, the hallway/entrance into the building looked a bit scary, could benefit from some paint...overall nice location, very close to the castle.
