Nice little flat within easy walking distance of Holyrood House and the Royal Mile. Property owner and managers were all quick to respond. Kitchen is well appointed. One caveat: Bathroom is very narrow and water pressure for the shower isn't great, but it's an old building, so not too surprising on either count. Overall a nice spot and good value in a city with expensive accommodation.

We stayed with 6 people at this central apartment in Edinburgh. It was clean and it looked like it has been renovated recently. The communication was without any issues and the check-in was very nice as we have been welcomed personally and showed around. Unfortunately, our lock broke one day before our arrival so we had to leave the apartment quickly after our arrival for a few hours so the lock could be replaced meanwhile. We received this information as we arrived at the apartment and it would had been nice to know about this a little earlier. However, the rest of the communication was wonderful and very friendly. The bathroom is - as described by the owner - indeed very tiny so it is not very comfortable for someone with e.g. long legs to sit on the toilet. The sleep sofa was alright for 2 nights but if you have back issues, it is not comfortable. The 2 other beds were nice. All in all, we enjoyed our stay very much and would stay there again.

Initial impressions of the stairwell are not great but the flat itself is spacious, bright and clean. The sofa bed in the living room was not very comfortable to sit on, the other sofa was fine. Beds were comfortable. A few more wine glasses would be good as lots of pint glasses but only 2 wine glasses in the cupboard! Super location, within easy walking distance of most major attractions in Edinburgh. Local shops handy too. Thank you!

The place was nice and clean. Bathroom was small and the area shuts down early. It was a good value for the price though.

I can't say enough positives about this flat. I loved the neighborhood, the layout of the flat, and the support both Tasmin and Julie provided. The wifi was fantastic which was important as I was working and required to use WIFI on a daily basis! I was able to walk to Waverley Train station in about 15 minutes and if I wanted to take public transportation, it was quickly available. Coffee shops, grocers, and small shops were all easy to get to from the flat. Most importantly, I felt very safe. I traveled between the flat and Waverley at all hours of the evening and didn't worry about getting anywhere safely. I look forward to going back to Edinburgh and staying at this flat again.

For those not used to Edinburgh, don't panic, the entrance/stairs never match the flats. Definitely not the poshest street in town, but Edinburgh is super safe, grotty facades mean very little.
The hosts were extremely accomodating, the flat is great, super-neat, bedrooms bigger than usual, proper shower (none of that electric Brit business), everything is there. A great plus: the bedrooms set to single or double on demand.

As others have said prior to our stay, don’t be put off by the entrance hall. This is a lovely apartment, about 15 - 20 minute walk to the city centre but we hopped on the sightseeing bus in Regents Rd which seemed to be a little closer. The apartment had everything needed for a great weekend away & the beds were very comfy!

We were a bit concerned when we entered the apartment building as it looked a bit run down however when we entered the apartment it was well presented and very pleasant. We did have a few problems with the wifi. Julie who let us in was very friendly and helpful.
It is in a good location for getting in to the centre of Edinburgh on foot . We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and saw lots of shows at the Fringe and went up Arthur's Seat great views.
Thanks

Nice apartment in old building but apartment nicely redone. Beds and linens quite nice. Kitchen well equipped. No soap/shampoo in bathrooms.I never know if there should be some or not. Some houses/apts provide them. Internet and TV did not work. Not a big deal but they did advertise as having them.
5.0
Bright and stylish rooms, high ceilings, fully fitted kitchen - everything you need. Good location as bus 35 stops just around the corner to bring you right up to the Royal Mile. A small supermarket (Iceland) and a bakery are also just around the corner on Easter Road. We staid for 2 nights and loved the place!
5.0
Lovely apartment, spotlessly clean within easy reach of the city. A warm welcome on arrival and had everything we needed. So much better than staying in a hotel
