The apartment is in an excellent location, right on the royal mile and only a 5-10 minute walk to the train station and New Town. However, we felt that it wasn't as nice as depicted in the photos and so was over priced. The main issues being that the bathroom needs an update and it is in desperate need of a new carpet in the hall, bedroom and lounge. The kitchen is nice. We stayed for a weekend only and the kitchen facilities were absolutely fine for that - you'd need a better equipped kitchen and a more comfortable sofa for longer stays. Check in was fine, obtaining a key from a safe box. It's very much a temporary let rather than being a 'home from home' airbnb / cottage stay as we're used to. We'd have appreciated some basic welcoming touches like a pint of milk in the fridge and some coffee etc, although there were some tea bags and other food bits left over from previous guests.
