Location was great. Convenient to sites and restaurants.
Nice apartment in close proximity to old town, the Royal Mile, several good restaurants. Apartment was clean and functional. The stairs up to the first apartment did not have a handrail which was somewhat problematic for one of our group and also a safety issue. The washer worked, but the dryer didn't actually dry the clothes. There was a bit of a hiccup in communicating. We had been told that we would receive the entry codes the day before arriving and we still didn't have them when we arrived at the apartment at 4pm. It took a couple phone calls to sort it out. People staying in the downstairs apartment arrived at the same time we did and had their codes. We had a good time, but didn't spend much time in the apartment. All in all and greatly because of the stairs we will stay elsewhere on our next visit.

Great property, amazing location
Fantastic place, located an easy walking distance to the castle and lots of great venues. Loved the entryway staircase, decor, and beautiful master bedroom. Only minor critique: washer/dryer combo didn’t actually dry anything, and kitchen was pretty small, so for long-term stays might have been an issue. But for our brief visit when we were eating out all the time anyway, it was perfect. Would definitely book again.

Great location
Accommodations were fine. It is a third floor apartment with two extremely long flights of steps. Not good when lugging large suitcases (or just climbing in general). Not recommended for elderly or disabled guests
