Lovely central apartment
Lovely apartment. Very central. Well appointed. But noisy but as the bedrooms were at the back of the property in Flat 4 we couldn’t hear the noise from there. Great view of the castle.

Great location
Great place to stay right on Princes Street. Had a wonderful view of the castle and within walking distance of shops and restaurants. There were homeless by the front door, so safety when entering and leaving was a concern, but we didn’t have any problems.

The area was very noisy beyond being in a city. Upon check-in, we had to step over 2 homeless people in the doorway to the building, and this was consistent at all hours and every day. The entryway to the flat was not clean and very cluttered. Since there is not air, the windows needed to be open, and the area is very loud. The flat is next door to a McDonalds, and there was a lot of activity. Once inside the flat, it was clean and spacious.

Great location, easy walk to old town and right in the middle of everything for shopping, dinner, market etc. kids loved the Tesco and McDonald’s right downstairs. Only suggestion is door stoppers as the room doors are very heavy.

This is close in to the main attractions of Edinburgh and has a view of the castle from the living room. It’s well appointed and very modern. The office staff is super friendly and we were able to store our luggage there until check in time. I would stay here again.

Clean and plenty of room. Good location. Of the places we stayed over 9 days in the brightest month of June, it was the only one with room darkening shades. I was surprised how much that mattered. Bit noisy in morning.

Location was great. Walkable to all attractions. Only downside was homeless people in vestibule to apartment. Had to step ariund them a few times to enter flat.

10/10 Exceptional

The location was perfect for access to sites. We used the Hop on Hop bus which had a stop across the street. It is about a 15 minute brisk walk to waverly station for any taking the LNER to/from London which was faster than waiting UBER/ Taxi. It is a 5 min walk to the tram station at WEST End to get to the Edi Airport. Both super convenient. The 2 bedrooms were great. Noise was not an issue. The property stayed very warm without even needing heat. The drapes blocked out the daylight very well. The light switches were a bit tricky - a manual for foreigners would be useful. Never really figured out the washer/ dryer combo despite reading the manual online. Stairs - so be prepared. Tesco right downstairs for convenience (basic groceries if you are there for a few days).
