This apartment is AMAZING! It is beautiful, stylish, contemporary, clean & peaceful. It ranks among the top of all 7 apartments / B&Bs that we stayed in during our 2 & a 1/2 week vacation to three countries. The location is perfect. It is close enough to walk to many attractions, yet snuggled away in a quiet location.
The Grassmarket location was wonderful! The “square” in front of the apartment has a beautiful view of the Edinburgh Castle. There are many restaurants & shops very nearby.
Jonathan was an EXCELLENT host. He was out of town upon our arrival, but gave perfectly detailed instructions for check-in & check-out! He went over & above by allowing us to store luggage in the apt. before & after check-in & check-out hours. We had flown in from visiting another country & needed a place to keep our suitcases until we could get in. We had one concern with the apartment (won’t go into detail because it was handled very well & was a non-issue), & contacted Jonathan via email, who was still out of town. He IMMEDIATELY called us & took care of the situation.
The bedrooms are very spacious & the beds comfortable! The skylights are an added bonus upstairs! The round staircase to the upstairs bedroom is quaint & very cool. But it would not be suitable for anyone who is ailing. We had my 79 year old mother with us, so she simply stayed in the downstairs bedroom.
The cost per night is a little higher than some, but very affordable when splitting the cost among several in a party. For us it was WELL WORTH the money spent for such a luxurious apartment.
The bathroom was spacious & contemporary with a nice added touch of mood lighting (which I used).
Overall, I highly recommend this apartment! I would stay again in a heartbeat.
