We were a group of five guys and stayed in Edinburgh only a few days. We all believe Stoil's apartment is in the perfect location: in the middle of an historic, less traffic congested location, surrounded by small local shops, and just 5 minutes by foot to the main centre where all the big shops are. The castle is also very closed. There is a huge worldmap in the living room where all the guests can pinpoint where they come from. Check in and check out are independent and communication with Stoil has always been efficient.
