The location is fantastic, so easily accessible by both car and rail, and the flat is extremely clean, well maintained and kitted out with useful practical items. Most major sights (especially the Old Town, castles, Parliament and Arthur's Seat) are really easy to walk to and there's an added bonus that some of the hop on, hop off bus tours stop right outside the side street where the apartment is located. The only people who may struggle a little with the location (due to a flight of stairs within the apartment building - or two if coming from the very useful and secure underground parking - and the slopes of the cobbled street outside) are wheelchair users or families with babies who can't yet walk, but our occasional buggy-using toddler enjoyed the stairs and it wasn't hard to navigate the stairs with an empty buggy. We definitely hope to stay here again if it's available next time we're in Edinburgh.
