A great apartment right in the centre of Edinburgh

We were very comfortable here for a couple of nights and it was super convenient for the city centre and also within walking distance of Murrayfield where we were going to a concert. Everything was very clean and all the communication before and during our stay was really prompt and helpful.

Small, clean flat within walking distance to everything

Building: first impression not the best as greeted by large bins and were also not initially sure about the safety as the flat is located in a council type block of flats (there are also some dodgy strip clubs a bit further up the street). However, the flat itself is very bright and clean, and the shower has good pressure and is hot! There is shampoos, hand wash, instant coffee and sugar which is all great. There is no dishwasher (although washer/dryer) and would only use the kitchen for very basic cooking but there are so many good restaurants within a short walking distance so that is not a problem. We felt a little cramped staying with two children and a dog but for a couple this is prefect. Furthermore, the host is really good.

Fantastic apartment in a fantastic location

We travelled to Edinburgh to see Harry Styles and decided on a two night trip The apartment was fantastic beautifully presented. Clean and perfect for our needs Great location. Close to bars and restaurants and a short walk for the sightseeing and the tram to Murrayfield Gareth, as a host was beyond helpful, kept in touch throughout our journey and the bottle of Prosecco was a welcome treat when we arrived after a longer than anticipated journey Definitely, book to stay here again
