The location of the apartment is great! You can easily walk to restaurants, bars, the Royal Mile, etc. There is lots of natural light in the apartment. We were there during the Fringe so there was a bit of street noise at night but not too bad. The beds are extremely comfortable! We specifically chose this place because it had a washing machine. Unfortunately, the dryer function on the machine did not work for us so the clothes did not dry. Although we did not use it the kitchen has all you need to prepare your own meals. You do have to climb three flights of stairs to get to the apartment. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay.
