I had read very mixed reviews so was unsure what to expect. The entrance to the property and common parts are a bit off putting but once inside, the property is spacious and clean. The bed is very comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped, and the apartment is very quiet. The decor is a bit tired and dated in places but it more than suited our places. It is a fifteen minute walk to the bottom of the Royal Mile and walking is the best way to get around, particularly during the Fringe.
