This place was amazing. My husband and I stayed here with our two children, ages 5 and 10. We all loved being able to look out of the windows and see the castle. My five-year-old even admits to getting out of bed in the middle of the night to see the castle lit up. All of the other reviews are accurate; the apartment was clean, well equipped, in a great location, Taiba was a great hostess, some street noise at night (mostly drunken laughter and singing from pedestrians walking by; nothing substantial). We had a very pleasant stay and would highly recommend staying here if you are Edinburgh.
