I was grateful for the helpful staff. There is a bus stop in front of the main entrance. This makes traveling via public transportation easy. However, I did not appreciate all the people that would block the entrance to the hotel as they wait for their bus. The grout in the shower and upholstery on the coach could have been better cleaned.

9.8/10 Exceptional! (37 reviews)

We stayed for 2 nights in this apartment hotel. We had our 2 year old with us, and this was a fantastic stay for a few reasons. 1. The team is highly communicative and amenable to requests. Originally they had given us a baby cot, but my toddler has outgrown it - so they were gracious enough to give us an extra bed, with no extra charge. They accommodated an early check-in to make us comfortable. 2. The room while small, was exceptionally well designed. Even with a pull-out bed, a sofa, a small dining table - we never felt cramped. The furnishings were modern and high quality, and having a small kitchenette in the room was helpful. 3. The location is amazing - a short walk from the Royal Mile, and on a street that was quiet at night. They have rooms that face the castle - though they were sold out of those during our stay. 4. Finally, it's the small things that make a good stay great. They left a super cute soft-toy for my toddler on our departure date, which he absolutely loved. One small downside - you have to take a staircase with about 20 steps to get to the rooms. There are no elevators to carry your suitcases. This wasn't a big issue for us, but if you are mobility impaired, it could be a challenge.
