Can't say enough good things about this property. It looked absolutely new with upgrades. Super clean and well equipped. We stayed in a large studio suite with Castle View. You are a short few minutes walk from the Royal Mile and Victoria Street or Greyfriar Bobby's in the opposite direction. Less stairs and uphill on this side of town as well. We had a fantastic anniversary stay. Can't recommend enough!

clean, convenient, roomy, and responsive! The view was inspiring, and the location was perfect for walking to all the sights. My friends have already asked me for the itinerary to replicate this trip!! It's hard to find accommodations for a single mom with two teen/young adult sons. This gave us the right space for our needs in a great area.
