The view is spectacular and the proximity to Grassmarket make this a very convenient location for shopping and evening pubbing. However, the stairs are no joke. You feel like you’re climbing forever and then go two more stories after that 😂. The flat is tasteful. The bathroom is updated and clean. The beds were not the best, the floors slant (or I got into the whisky) and the couch needs recovering. However it was clean and comfortable enough for crashing at night,, and the host was easy to contact and their information site was clear and precise. We didn’t really hang out there at all, but our family of 5 was comfortable enough.
