Great location. The apartment is nice and clean. It has the amenities we need and has a good kitchen, which is a plus. The only thing missing is the lift/elevator.

Property was perfect for two people. Small kitchen was great to have. Location was awesome. Short walk to all the sites and restaurants. Very short walk to direct airport bus which was great for us. Would definitely stay if we find ourselves in Edinburgh again

Great stay, beautiful apartment & very nice area close to everything. There’s no elevator so not for everyone, but it’s absolutely worth the climb up the stairs! Clean, spacious apartment with all the kitchen essentials you will need.

Wonderful location

Our stay was wonderful! We had no trouble locating and accessing the apartment... the property even went above and beyond by calling us to let us know when the unit was ready a little earlier than expected. Location is phenomenal, everything was clean, and had everything we needed.the on-site laundry facility and baggage storage was a great bonus. Would stay again and recommend.

Apt was very nice. Being on the 5th floor was a bit warmer and not very easy to get up to with bags. Staff was very attentive with any needs we had. Location is very convenient for busses, trains, trams and of course the royal mile.

The location is fabulous, as this property is located on the edge of old town and one block away from new town, a 3 minute walk from the train station, and very walkable to everywhere else in Edinburgh. The property itself is right above a couple of pubs, and is was a little lively on Friday and Saturday nights, but quiet on the weeknights. The entry/access system is wonderful. The apartment itself was well stocked and modern. Would stay there again.

The apartment was equipped with so many things it made being there so comfortable. I loved the apartment style living and spacious living room. I would’ve preferred to not be in the top floor since there is only stairs. The free laundry was the best thing ever. Everything was clean except the shower had a little mold. Everything else was excellent including the area and eateries close by.

This was our 9th lodging for our 2 week trip and one of our favorites. Having 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms was a luxury for my family of 4 - as well as the kitchenette and living room area. The apartment was nicely decorated, modern and clean. We didn't use the laundry facilities but it was great to see 2 washer and dryers on the floor - and the storage closet for luggage. My only complaint was I wish the property management company sent me messages in the Expedia App - even if to tell me emails were sent to my personal email account. Since we were on vacation, I wasn't checking my email so I almost missed verifying information in order to get my entry code. Also the fan in one of the bedrooms was a bit noisy and probably needs to be replaced.

The location is great, as it is around the corner from the train station. The Royal Mile is merely steps away. Tour busses are close by. And the apartment was just as lovely as described. The property management were amazing when I realized I had left my phone behind and allowed me access back in to retrieve it. All-in-all, was a great experience! Highly recommend!

The location of this property is great. We stayed in a 5th floor apartment which was very hot. The bed and pillows were very hard but we were provided with softer pillows when requested. Since there is no air conditioning, I would not recommend staying on the 5th floor during the warmer months.

The location is amazing! Within walking distance of the train station and most of the local attractions. Laundry on site was really convenient. Room was well equipped. The only downside was that the bed was a bit uncomfortable, and the tap in the kitchen would leak randomly and wake us up.
