I booked Alison's apartment for the whole of August - I had a show at the Edinburgh Fringe. The apartment was perfect. So close to the Royal Mile (just up a set of steps). It was comfy, practical and flexible. My family including 3 tall teenagers stayed for 7 days of that and fitted in absolutely fine. Everything in the apartment worked fine. There was even an indoor place for my bicycle in the lobby area. Whenever I needed to use my car I could park it outside (meter charges apply) - no problem. By the end of my stay I felt just like a local - very cool to be a city centre dweller. I fell in love with this place.
