The accommodation is spacious and very clean. Ideal for families with nice touches such as a cupboard with games and DVDs in it to keep the kids and adults entertained! Its about 25 minute walk into the the main centre of Edinburgh.... castle etc. The immediate area is quiet residential with local shop nearby for and provisions etc. The apartment is top floor so may not be suitable if you have difficulty walking up stairs.. was no problem for us. Overall the accommodation was excellent, well maintained, clean and the beds were so so comfortable. I would have no hesitation in recommending this place to stay and if ever in Edinburgh again will certainly be booking again.
