We had a lovely three night stay in this apartment in August. Originally booked the accommodation for the Edinburgh Festival which was cancelled (Covid), but decided to keep the booking and use it for a mini break. I'm so pleased we made that decision!
The apartment is ideally located. Turn left out of the apartment then right at the top of the hill and you're on Princess St (a short walk from Waverley Station). Very convenient for shops, bars and restaurants. We arrived by car and although there is no parking outside the apartment we unloaded our bags then parked in the QPark Omni carpark which is very close (less than a 5 minute walk).
The apartment is on the second floor of the building with spiral stars to the apartment door. The building itself dates from 1698 so you are literally living in a piece of history!
The apartment was very clean and reflected exactly the photographs and description in the Air BnB listing. All amenities were present and some lovely touches e.g. tea and coffee (fresh) available.
It is very quiet on the whole (some early morning street noise but not excessive).
The beds were comfortable with smart linen. Fitted wardrobes in the two large bedrooms. The third bedroom is small but adequate for single occupancy.
Accessibility is clearly stated in the listing and I would agree that this apartment is not suitable for people with mobility issues or for small children due to the steps up to the house and apartment.
Uwe was an excellent host - very easy to contact and quickly responding. He met us approximately 30 seconds after we messaged to say we had arrived!
I recommend this apartment for it's location and history and would love to book a return visit next year for the Festival.
