Great location and a lovely apartment perfectly presented. Plenty of space and well appointed. One flight of steps in description is misleading as you have modern steps to the front door but once in to get to the living areas you have more narrow and steep staircase. Adds to character but a serious obstacle if you have luggage. Overall very happy

We came as a family for a pre-Christening weekend and had the most amazing stay in this very central beautiful apartment. We had everything we needed and could reach anywhere in the centre with just a short walk . The apartment was beautifully and tastefully decorated and we very much enjoyed our stay

The place is a comfortable & relaxing place. It is convenient to many of Edinburgh attractions. There also is a grocery store next door. It’s a busy street but they have double pane windows that keep the noise down If you plan on driving or renting a car just know that it’s about $35 dollars a day to park over night at the NCP which isn’t all that far away. From the time we entered the place it offered an “wow” feeling. Make sure you’re ok with stairs. But the spiral staircase entry was amazing! Coming from the states we felt, safe & secure here and kept it under the radar.

The apartment is in a excellent location right on the edge of the New Town and is a big and comfortable space. The minor downsides were that soap wasn't provided which was a bit odd and inconvenient and the cleaning could have been better (i.e. bathroom drawers hadn't been cleaned), but everything else was great

Trams, buses to everywhere stop within a block of the apartment making it very convenient to get around town or easily Glasgow. Great grocery chain downstairs, surrounded by great variety of restaurants. Double pained windows shut out most of the noise
