This is the spot if you want to get up close and personal with the city! It was great having a huge choice of restaurants, pubs, Shopping and coffee shops so close. 5 minutes walk to a great park and Edinburgh Castle just a few minutes beyond. The apartment is in a very old building but it has had a modern renovation. Kind of tight inside but comfortably fit my family of five. The street downstairs was pretty lively on the Thursday night we stayed but my wife said I slept through the noise, as I usually don’t have a problem sleeping through anything. She said it didn’t go much past midnight. But be aware, you will here the street and pubs down stairs. All together a great apartment in a great location!
