Myself, my partner and our four children stayed for four nights, and had an exceptional time. The location - 10 minute walk from Prince's Street, 15 from the Royal Mile, and 25 minute coach ride from the airport - is absolutely perfect in every way. It's within minutes of the hustle and bustle of the city centre and yet the crescent is a gorgeous and pleasant oasis, with few signs of modernity, and a joy to retreat to after a busy day's sightseeing. The apartment itself is exactly as described, and, not unlike Edinburgh itself, a gem of quiet elegance, with many original features, and very tastefully presented. I couldn't recommend this apartment more highly. Communication with James was the best I've experienced through Airbnb - prompt, efficient, friendly and polite - and, on the one occasion when something needed attending to (a small drainage issue) the problem was fixed within an hour. All-in-all my best Airbnb experience yet.
