Exceptional location right below the Edinburgh Castle and a couple hundred feet to Grassmarket. Lots of restaurants and bars within a 10 minute walk.
The walk to the castle is straight uphill, but pretty much everything in Edinburgh requires some uphill and downhill walking. You can see the castle from the courtyard of the apartment complex. The apartments are easy to access and secure.
The apartment is small (it's a studio!) but very efficient and it has everything you need. Perfect for a family with small children or two friends that don't want to share a bed.
Dmitriy was a great communicator and great host.
