This apartment is amazing. Karen and Steve have very good taste and thewhole place is very stylish. The layout provides a lot of privacy between the bedrooms, since the other bedroom is in a "different floor" and there are thick doors between the rooms. Therefore this is very good for two couples or a family with kids of different ages sleeping during different hours. Location is lovely with nice restaurants nearby and easy stroll to the old town. We came with an own car. It was easy to find a parking space and use RingGo to pay for the parking, but it was rather expensive. Train would be a better alternative to explore Edinburgh anyway since you really do not need a car unless you want to go out of the city or plan to drive around Scotland as we did.
