We had a great stay at Michael’s apartment for Hogmanay. We checked in with ease— Michael was unavailable to meet us, so his friend Oliver met us instead. The apartment was clean, tidy and had everything we needed. There were four of us, so there was plenty of space.
The view over the royal mile was amazing, especially for the torchlight procession. It made for a great spot to catch fireworks as well. It’s well situated among everything that you want to do, and I loved having such restaurant variety so close.
Some reviews note noise as an issue, but we found that closing the living room and kitchen doors avoided any late night problems. Even on new year’s eve, there was silence.
While I use Airbnb frequently, this was the first time for my companions. Staying here was such a wonderful experience that now they are already talking about where they can go next with Airbnb, as well as when we can return to Michael’s. I highly recommend staying here to anyone looking for the perfect place in Edinburgh.
