The good things about the apartment are the wonderful views of the castle, the convenient location, compact kitchen and comfortable beds. However the living room furniture is limited to a small settee and one chair both of which are uncomfortable, stained and not clean. The dining table is a folding table with four uncomfortable folding chairs. There are no lamps in the living room and the two tables are wobbly. The bathtub/shower has high side walls and is extremely slick with no mat or safety bars. The apartment over looks the lively Grassmarket plaza and surrounding bars and restaurants. This keeps the apartment very noisy most of the time including until after 2 am.
