The apartment is very centrally located and perfect for exploring all the many festival venues. It is also pretty, historic, well appointed and designed. The soft furnishings are especially lovely. There's everything you need for your holiday stay and Paul leaves thoughtful supplies and lots of good recommendations for restaurants and cafes. The flat is accessed by steep but fun stairs so take care. Our only problem was with sleeping arrangements as the 5th person slept on the sofa bed which is in the kitchen/living room, making the kitchen inaccessible early in the morning. It would however be perfect for a family or 2 couples. As a bonus you can see the tattoo band leaving the castle at 10pm from the living room window. We had a fabulous stay and will return when next in Edinburgh. Thanks Paul for your hospitality and for responding so quickly to all our requests.
