This place is everything described and more. So much more. The view of the Castle was just magnificent! The street the apartment is on has a ton of different restaurants to choose from, and two of the nights we got takeaways so we could eat at the kitchen table and just enjoy the view. The apartment is decorated wonderfully and it felt like a home. The kitchen, while small, has been outfitted with everything you will need for your stay. The "extra" touches were such a bonus (coffee, tea, a packet of yummy shortbread cookies, oatmeal and other things I'm not remembering to list). This apartment is an AMAZING value. If we ever come back to Edinburgh, we would never stay anywhere else. I just cant say enough nice things about the apartment, or Aileen, who was amazingly responsive.
