This flat is superbly located: transport and all the main sights of Edinburgh are just a short walk away. We stayed in Flat 3, which is on the ground floor. It was freshly decorated and absolutely spotless.
A big issue for me is noise: I'm a light sleeper. But even though the flat's on the ground floor, the main bedroom has nothing above it, and my friends in the other rooms also had no trouble with noise coming from outside or any other part of the building. The building's stone walls are great at keeping the rooms quiet.
There was hardly anything lacking for a great stay – the kitchen has everything you may need. The sofa bed (which we used for an extra guest) was perfectly comfortable. Linen and towels were fresh and clean, as you'd expect.
Communication was excellent, and we were able to let ourselves in using the key from the keysafe. We really appreciated the 11 a.m. checkout time, which gave us enough time to get ourselves organised.
(One tip for drivers: you might find parking tricky, as the flat is in the centre of town – research the garages available before you arrive. The city has now started charging to park in the surrounding streets even on Sundays.)
Thanks to Francois and the team for a fabulous stay. We'd love to stay again next time we're in Edinburgh!
