This is a fantastic apartment. Very modern and clean. It was in relatively close proximity to the things we wanted to see in our short stay. It was 5 minutes by taxi from the Waverly train station and a 10 minute walk to Grassmarket. It is in a city area however I did not find it noisy as the bedrooms are at the back of the apartment. It is a long 3flights of stairs to walk up with luggage so you need to be able to manage stairs. Loved the apartment and the view of the castle was great! I’d stay again in a heartbeat.
