Great apartment very close to Grass Market.
A quiet apartment but very close to Castle, Grass Market and many of Edinburgh top sites. Shower is a little small but Definitely recommend.

Perfect location; check-in is a hassle
This was a LOVELY property and perfectly located. Just a short walk from many tasty restaurants (try Petit Paris on Grassmarket), the castle, Victoria Street, Royal Mile, etc. Be aware there will be stairs to climb from the street up to the castle and Royal Mile, but this would happen anywhere in the hilly city. Communication with the host--specifically regarding questions and issues with payment--was a bit spotty. The biggest negative was the distance between the property and the "keynest store" where we had to pick up the keys (about a mile walk, one way). Also, since our flight arrived early in the day, we had to store our luggage elsewhere, and the closest spot required us to take our luggage down steep flights. We found out that we MIGHT have been able to store luggage at the keynest store, but they couldn't have guaranteed it ahead of time, so finding another place was a must for us. Overall, it was a great spot.

Amazing location
The flat was in a perfect location - steps away from Grassmarket and the view of Edinburgh Castle from the living room couch was amazing. The owner was great about communicating and checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. Excellent storage and amenities. The bed was the most comfortable we have ever slept on. 100% would rebook.

Great Location near GrassMarket
The flat is just as pictured in the listing. We were comfortable and had plenty of space for 3 adults. One thing that would be helpful is if there were some instructions on the washer. We were unfamiliar with the settings and it took some Google searches to figure it out. Perhaps add to the check in information that is available in the flat(which was quite helpful). Otherwise, I would recommend the flat.

Week on Scotland
Had a wonderful time in Scotland. Rented a car for 9 days and toured the island Edinburgh is a difficult place to have a car. Very difficult to find a spot and if you do parking is very expensive. We had to play musical cars because this Vrbo for not have parking. The second bedroom with the trundle bed is quit tight on space, it would sleep 3 better than 4. The key set up was always a challenge to use. You jiggled one key and used a second to get in.. These were all issues we dealt with but had a very nice time. This is in a great location .
