The location was perfect! The apartment was lovely and clean. The photos to access the front door could have been a bit more detailed (maybe an arrow to point you in the right direction). The only negative- the shower drain was clogged and we had to keep shutting the water off after thirty seconds to prevent flooding the bathroom floor.

Worst bed we’ve ever slept in. Would not stay here
Worst bed we’ve ever slept in. It was like a bag of creaky, rusty springs. The property owners should replace it before they expect one more guest to sleep on it. There is no washer/dryer although it’s listed in the description. There is not much room for your things, no place to hang wet towels, no mirror close to an outlet for hair drying. These minor things could be overlooked if you had an acceptable bed to sleep in. The location is perfect and that is its saving grace. But I would not stay here again.
Awesome location but a bit difficult for our Uber to find. Central location for most tours. Quiet location for being directly off the Royal Mile.

Posizione perfetta, assistenza eccellente. Appartamento accogliente
Unica nota, nella descrizione indica macchinetta per il caffè e microonde ma non ci sono, che un bollitore per l acqua. Sono stati carini a farti trovare the e caffè con qualche biscotto per la colazione è stata una gradita sorpresa!
Luce lampada soggiorno non funzionante, così come il telecomando della TV e le luci sopra la cucina.
