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.

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.

Nice Apartment
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.

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.

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!

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!

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!

Great location for Old Town Edinburgh
The apartment was clean, well-supplied, and well laid out. We left a few suggestions, but, overall, the appliances, pots, pans, etc. helped us eat at home without any real problems. The management was responsive to the minor problems we notified them about. The location is excellent, within a five-minute walk of the Royal Mile, near the University, and close to lots of good restaurants, three grocery stores (Tesco, Sainsbury, and Lidl), and many Fringe venues. The only drawback is the 27 steps up to the apartments, so if you are older or with bad knees (we have both), it may be a bit challenging when you're tired. P.S. If you're American, like we are, you may need to experiment a bit with the switches in the kitchen to figure out how to turn the stove, lights, etc. on.

Clean, Modern. but loud and some funky rules
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.
