What a wonderful place to stay!
Our hosts were very kind and one welcomed us upon arrival. This was helpful as our cab driver couldn’t get his credit card reader to work so my partner went to get cash while I waited with them. He helped us in with our bags, showed us the flat, and gave advice as to where to go/eat. I really appreciated his kindness.
The view from the flat is of the castle. A stunning sight! It was during Christmas time so the castle had its light show going. My toddler loved it. She called it the “party castle” lol. It was lovely to visit the inside of the castle at night.
We hope to return in the future and are very jealous of this amazingly located apartment. What a gem!
Note: stairs are a bit tricky as they are in most (maybe all?) places in Old Town Edinburgh. We were grateful there weren’t as many flights as most flats we looked at on Airbnb.
The flat didn’t have a microwave. We should have looked before bringing microwaveable food. Our mistake.
