The location of the property is near the all the important sites in Edinburgh. The space was well sized and clean. There was in unit laundry that was well received. The building is quite old and the units are up a few floors (no elevators) so if someone has mobility issues, this would not be ideal. Staff were extremely responsive and helpful.

The view and the location alone made this the perfect place to stay! With that said, we were on the third floor which meant we had to lug our suitcases up nearly 70 stairs. Fortunately, we were up to the task, and knew that was the case going in. Because the location was so amazing, we popped right out to a pub after that journey. Some angel of a man (whom I am pretty sure was wearing a property jacket and works for the company that owns the space) happened to show up as we were checking out and he carried our heaviest bags all the way downstairs. I would absolutely stay here again! Albeit, with a lighter suitcase ;)

The location is perfect. 5-10 min walk to the castle and royal mile. Tram and bus station just down and shops (for all purpose) just there. Its a 3rd floor apartment with no lift. But it was perfect. We could see on the west the castle and on the east the Scot monument from the windows (and all northside building of royal mile). Very spacious & clean apartment with all facilities (we are a family with 2 kids and we had cooked dinner everyday). Two bathrooms was bonus. Really there is nothing to complain. The only thing I would suggest is to put a door blocker to prevent the auto door closure (doors are heavy and kids cant push the door open).
