This is a good property in relative close proximity to the Royal Mile. It's conveniently located on a major bus route, and a 15-minute bus ride takes you into Old Town. It has two bedrooms a small room with a daybed, and it suited our family of five well. The kitchen had all the amenities we needed (e.g., dishwasher and washer/dryer combo) and the family room offered some space to relax. Like much of central Edinburgh, the buildings are older and don't have the same space and amenities that those visiting from Canada or the United States would be used to. For example, a single, small bathroom was a bit of a challenge for a family of five. This size of accommodation is a reality of living in this part of the world, however, so I don't offer it here as a criticism. It's just something to be aware of.

Excellent Apartment
We were delighted when we made a last minute booking for this Apartment for 10 nights. We weren’t disappointed. The Host was really accommodating for our specific needs; he always came back promptly and was very reassuring. We arrived at the Apartment and found it exactly as described. It was very clean and spacious (beautiful high Victorian ceilings a real bonus!). As written in another review the stairwell isn’t particularly pleasant but this should in no way detract from a lovely, convenient situation for walks and sightseeing via the buses. We loved our stay and would highly recommend this property for anyone wanting to experience local Edinburgh. Thank you.

Step inside
Graeme is a great host and is very quick to respond to any queries you may have before or during your stay. Gave us really good information in the welcome details. Whilst the apartment itself is great the front entrance and communal stair well are not that welcoming unfortunately, but once inside it is spacious, light and clean.

Lovely Family Minibreak
I stayed here with family for last minute get away as our holiday abroad as cancelled due to Covid. It was the perfect self catering apartment that suited our needs as a family. It was lovely and spacious, easy to find, 15 minute drive to the zoo which was our reason for visiting Edinburgh. Overall a lovely stay.

Lovely flat in a nice area
We really enjoyed our stay here, it's a lovely flat, we liked the area (little out of town, but a nice walk in, and near the Botanic gardens and some nice shops). Good communication from the owner, and he even sent me something I'd left behind!

Fantastisk kommunikation
Efter flere udskydelser pga corona ankom vi endelig til Edinburgh. Inden da havde vi løbende haft kontakt til vores vært, som har været utrolig hjælpsom. Vi havde hele tiden følelsen af at være i de bedste hænder. Vi ankom til en lejlighed, der svarede til beskrivelsen og havde nogle fantastiske dage. Det var et dejligt gensyn med smukke Edinburgh, og lejligheden ligger ikke længere væk end man kan gå ind til byen. Vi valgte bussen, der hurtigt bragte os ind til centrum, og så gik vi hjem! Det er ikke helt så hårdt!
