Honestly, there was really nothing that I could think of negatively that I could write about this booking. Great location, great host/communicator, reasonably priced for the location. For us it was an awesome vacation. Clean and property was exactly as described. If you have difficulty getting up and down stairs, then maybe not the place for you, but then again, Edinburgh would not be a good place to visit if you don't want to climb stairs/hills. Overall, we completely enjoyed our stay. Thank you so much!

Great Location for trip to Edinburgh
Stayed two nights while we explored Old Town Edinburgh. Excellent location. Taxi can drop off right out front of the apartment. Accommodations we clean and comfortable. There is 5 flights of stairs to climb but it was manageable. Very close to everything. Coffee shop right downstairs. Apartment did not have a hair dryer or bath products (shampoo/body wash) so need to bring your own other than that it was a spectacular space.

Clean, tidy and well equipped apartment with a fantastic location. Owners were very responsive to queries. Only downside for us was the amount of stairs to apartment (no lift) particularly for older guests. That said can highly recommend.

Great Apartment in Old Town Edinburgh
We had a great stay in this spacious apartment. The kids enjoyed having their own room and was fun to watch the street performers right outside the window. Very easy to get to nearby attractions and tons of bus/train connections to get to the zoo, beach, etc. Highly recommend for a family stay in Edinburgh.

Edinburgh Sight Seeing Trip
This was a perfect location for visiting Edinburgh. Overlooks the Royal mile and is easy walking distance to Edinburgh Castle or the Palace of Holyrood which are at each end. Many of the street performances are right out the window below. Plenty of neat tours to take for Edinburgh of the past. The price is competitive with the hotels, but you get a huge living area, a full kitchen, and two bedrooms with ample roaming around room instead of a cramped hotel

Wonderful apartment in central position overlooking Royal Mile.
Amazing central location close to attractions and restaurants. The apartment was beautiful and was spacious and comfortable. Great views of the Royal Mile - including a great vantage point to watch the street performers! The host, Shahid, was very nice and helpful and could be contacted if required during our stay. Would absolutely book this apartment again! Only downside is that the sheer number of stairs made it hard work with heavy suitcases. Saying that, we were aware of this before we booked, but it did not deter us!
