Let me just say! I would stay here again in a heartbeat! Three of us stayed here and it was a treat to have our own bedrooms. The castle views in two of the bedrooms are fantastic, and the third bedroom has its own charming appeal with the brick buildings outside.
This flat is extremely stylish but simple, and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Having a washer for our clothes was a great perk. The bathroom was wonderful, with the best luxurious shower head and great water pressure.
It didn’t affect us personally (and may already be stated on the listing page), but I would note that the apartment is situated on a small street with some stairs, and then there is a narrow set of stairs leading to the apartment. Myself, my mother, and my older grandfather were able to navigate it just fine (with some huffing and puffing haha) but something to be aware of.
Also, we stayed from a Friday through Monday night, and could hear some jolly people tromping up and down the stairs outside until later at night, perhaps 1 am. We are relatively light sleepers but with earplugs, this was no big deal for us.
The location was fabulous! Great views down the Royal Mile (and obviously the castle), and easy access to the Mound, providing a short steep jaunt into New Town.
James was a very attentive host, leaving the heater on for our arrival and giving me extra info on the key location for check in when my internet couldn’t load the pictures. Thanks James for a great stay.
