The apartment was so convenient and walkable to all the main sites. It was also quiet even though outside was very noisy during the festival. It was like a home away from home.

You absolutely cannot beat the area of this property. It’s so central to all the spots you want to visit in Old Town, and is only a 16 minute walk to New Town. One of the absolute best parts of this booking was the inclusion of laundry - we wouldn’t have made it through our vacation without it!

10/10

Excellent apartment. Great location. Few minutes walk from main attractions. Top tip, suitcase storage available in museum opposite if needed!

This is a wonderful place to stay! Located very close to all the must-see areas of Old Town and New Town, it’s walkability was amazing. The room was very clean, had all amenities we needed, and the communication with staff was quick and kind. Highly recommend this apartment if you’re staying in the heart of Edinburgh.

Possibly the best vacation rental in Edinburgh. Spacious, quiet, and in amazing central location. Kitchen was well equipped, bed was comfortable, and the place was spotless. Highly recommended!

This property was breathtaking! It was close to the main high street, had lots of food right by it, and was very communicative and supportive with us! LOVED this place and their customer service!

My wife and I spent three nights in Edinburgh as part of a month long trip and chose this property based on its location and that it had a washer for us to do our laundry. It’s a great apartment, location can’t be beat , we were very pleased and felt right at home.

These are beautiful, new, spacious, well located apartments and quiet. However wifi is atrocious. Spoke to the manager about resetting it, but still barely working. Would recommend staying here, however bring your own portable wifi!

The apt drew up because it has a washer/dryer. It’s a bit basic but it’s clean and you can’t go wrong with the location.

10/10

Very spacious and airy, with huge, bright windows. Excellent appliances. Comfy bed in a nice little nook. We ate breakfast there with groceries bought from the “local”Saintsbury and cooked over the snazzy induction hob. Would have appreciated a more clear cut way to recycle, tho. Loved being right across the street from the Scottish National Museum and around the corner from lots of bars band restaurants. Fantastic location. Would definitely return!

Excellent property in a perfect locale to see old Edinburgh. Although there is no onsite staff (they are apartments) checkin was smooth and any issues we had were addressed. Communication was via email and they were very helpful. No parking. No air conditioning.

Amazing location! Only a little disappointed that I booked a courtyard view apartment to only see another brick wall from the other building. I also had issues with delayed communication from the prop. The WiFi is non existent so don't plan to work or stream. Great recommendations though on what to see and do around the apartment.

Location of this apartment is convenient, close to hop-on hop-off stops, but I would not rent this apartment again because it has no AC and windows overlook the roadway. If you decide to open windows to get fresh air you cannot sleep because of very loud noise from the street.
Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023

10/10

Nice amenities, shower was super, kitchen very workable, super quiet building, neutral furnishings, spacious enough, nice high ceilings. Didn’t have pre warning about lots of stairs to get to unit, courtyard was lit up all nite and metal blinds let light in all nite. Sleep masks provided but I cannot wear them so had light in bedroom at nite. Had issue with heating, didn’t work properly but they eventually sent a tech over and issue got resolved after a cold day. The company was good in acknowledging this and made it right for us. I would stay there again without question,…knowing the company handled the heating issue well.

This was a celebration visit for my wife in remission. Despite taking our money and emailing us, the night before we were due to fly, when I chased the entry details, we were told they had over booked us and had no rooms available. We had to chase around and find alternative 4 nights. We still await the refund and were offered no compensation. BEWARE!

8/10

This was a very modern clean apartment in a very central location-- across from the museum, .It was fully furnished (exception no shampoo). The only problem is overnight parking is not available and our apartment was over a nightclub --so very loud music was playing into the early hours of the morning::( When I booked the apartment I assumed that it had the rules of a hotel. The rules here do not allow ANYONE except those renting from entering the building-- something I thought was ridiculous since our daughter was picking us up for dinner, etc.
