This apartment is huge...a magical mini-castle, some rooms with portions of the old stone walls and ceiling exposed. Beautifully designed and comfortably furnished. The owner, Lorraine, is delightful, and absolutely the most thoughtful hostess we have ever had in all of our Airbnb stays. It was as if we were her long-time friends coming to visit. Immaculate! Everything was PERFECT, and she even had a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers on the table to add to our welcome. We stayed in August during the Fringe Festival and the Military Tattoo when thousands of visitors from all over the world are in Edinburgh, and this home is conveniently located just below the Royal Mile and the Edinburgh Castle, and a very short walk to the Grassmarket. It's a time when the streets are packed with visitors day and night, but we never felt the congestion below us, the apartment is quiet. Important to note, we had no trouble sleeping, the bedrooms are high off the street and quiet. Convenience...it doesn't get any better. The interior staircase leads up to a door which puts you a few steps away from the pubs and restaurants and a shortcut to the Royal Mile. The lower front door leads out to wonderful shops, excellent restaurants and pubs up and down the street. You just don't want to miss staying in Lorraine's Trust House Apartment!
