Quite simply the place you are looking for!

The apartment: Newly refurbished and of a very high standard. The place has two complete bathrooms and two bedrooms (one has a huge double bed, the other has two single beds). In addition, there is a couch that pulls out to a (comfortable) double bed. We were 6 guys staying there and found ourselves constantly commenting on how great this place is.

The location: Perfect! The Royal Mile is outside the kitchen window, atop which is Edinburgh Castle. Whatever you want to do, chances are there is a place to do precisely this within 5 minutes of walking.

The host: I really liked how Paul met us at the apartment when we arrived, gave us a tour of the place, as well as informing us about the surroundings. He had also compiled quite an extensive list of restaurants, pubs and activities in the area which we found helpful. I also liked how he got in contact with me and gave me his phone numbers and ample directions. He stressed that if we had any questions, we should contact him directly. He's a very professional and nice host.

If I am going back to Edinburgh in a group of 4-6 people, I will definitely be staying here again (and so should you)!
