We loved the location! It really was such a great spot to stay, so close to the train station, cute street, plenty of food options nearby, and just a very quick walk to the Royal Mile. It was so easy to go and meet our tour group and see the castle from this location. I couldn’t have asked for a better spot to explore Edinburgh for our first time.
The apartment was very clean and spacious for the three of us. We were able to make use of the laundry machine and I especially enjoyed the shower - great water pressure and hot water readily available. The apartment is on the third floor, no elevator so be prepared for a climb to the room. The hallway to the apartment was a little dark and rundown looking, but it felt safe and we never ran into anyone else in the building. Being three floors up we rarely heard the street noises so it was easy to sleep. The bed was comfortable and the apartment stayed warm and cozy.
Our host Arvin was the best! He was very quick with responses and very helpful answering questions and was there to meet and help with luggages as well. I would happily recommend this place.
