I stayed at the snug for a long weekend for a weekend City break. The location is perfect - easy walking distance (around 10 mins) to the castle and the royal mile.
The space is fairly small but fine for two people.
There were two main drawbacks with the stay.. the first is the mattress - it’s so squeaky that I woke up every time I turned over in the night. It definitely needs replacing as I’ve seen said in other reviews.
Also, it’s next door to an amazing cocktail bar - Dragonfly - which is good fun but plays music until 1am on a Friday and Saturday night which you can hear loudly in the apartment. If you’re going to be out and about until this time or don’t mind staying up late then it won’t bother you, but if you’re hoping for an early night then you will struggle.
Overall it’s a great place to stay if you want to spend a weekend in Edinburgh and want to explore the nightlife too.
Thanks for a great time!
