This a real gem of an apartment right on Grassmarket with fabulous views up to the Castle. It has everything you need for a few days and is absolutely spotless throughout. The shower is good, the bed is comfortable, the kitchen is pretty well equipped. We were really impressed with how quiet the place was at night too. There are three flights of stairs to get up to the apartment but this wasn't an issue for us. It felt very secure too as there is a locked entrance to the building.
