Everyone knows property rentals in Edinburgh are heavily inflated during the festivals. It was nice to find this apartment as it's a hidden little gem right near to Grassmarket and the castle, within easy walking distance of the Royal Mile and Cowgate and the surrounding areas. The rental price was not cheap but compared to other similar properties at the same time of year (or any hotel in town!) it was more than acceptable.
In addition to the brilliant location the apartment boasts a good sized double-bedroom and single-bedroom with a nice little living space and kitchen/diner. We hardly used these areas as we were out all day but they are well equipped and would suit people who want little use of a kitchen or people who want to cook and feed themselves when in Edinburgh.

The apartment was well maintained and very clean. Water pressure is a little low in the shower and for the hot water in the bathroom sink (which seemed a little odd as it was fine in the kitchen sink) but we were warned about this upon arrival.

Bob, our host, was waiting for us when we arrived, gave us the low down of the place and then was easy to contact during our stay, right the way through to departure.

I find myself going to the festivals in Edinburgh at least once every two years and next time I am planning a trip I will be looking to see if this place is available before anywhere else.
