Incredible location in Edinburgh. Seamless check-in. Right in the heart of Grassmarket (a vibrant area with lots of cafes, bars and restaurants) and just a short few minutes walk to the Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle and much more. Despite the proximity to nightlife, we didn't perceive any street noise. The living room window is, however, prone to slipping open slightly, creating noise and the potential for draughts and banging doors. This is just the unfortunate reality of the building being a protected structure and thus is understandable given the circumstances. Amenities are fantastic - lots of nice and helpful touches in the apartment. Some things to bear in mind: The apartment is up multiple flights of stairs with no elevator, which might cause accessibility issues for some. The heating system is primarily electric/storage heaters which you may need to acquaint yourself with if you are not familiar with them. All in all, an excellent Airbnb which we would be delighted to stay in again. Thanks Maureen!
