Pretty quiet area that is close to train station and several bus stops. Reasonable walking distance to several points of interest, restaurants, and shopping. Good communication with host. Would have preferred to have more control of the temperature. Clothes were still damp after seven hours of air drying.

This is a beautiful flat in a great location. Close to central Edinburgh shopping areas and more importantly for us the EICC. The host was really friendly and accomodating. The apartment is well equipped and even a selection of provisions were waiting for us. We felt really at home. We would happily stay here again. We highly recommend it.

The apartment was very nice and cozy. My two daughters and I loved the location. Near everything, even a couple of pubs and restaurants on our street. The amenities, milk bread and butter were especially nice and I must add the lovely fresh flowers on the table. One thing though the apartment is on the top floor and there are 4 sets of stairs to climb with luggage. Just be careful. We made it fine and I’m a very fit 79 year old women. Would definitely stay here again. And our host was available for any concerns we had.

Love the location of this property. We went to Teuchters across the street for beer, Cullen skink, and sticky toffee pudding and to Fox & Co Catering next door for delicious coffee and a full Scottish breakfast. Walkable to Dean Village and along the Water of Leith walkway to Stockbridge, as well as to the castle and the Royal Mile. There are also several bus stops nearby. Not far from a Tesco Express to stock up the small fridge, but we were provided with milk, butter, bread, and apples when we arrived. There were a few espresso pods as well, so we were able to have a quick coffee and bite to eat in the morning. The bedrooms are large and my son didn't complain about sleeping on the pull out sofa (maybe because he actually got his own room for once!) so it must not have been too uncomfortable. The shower is nice, but the bathroom does seem to have some moisture issues. Some of the stairs in the entryway have been worn down over time and require careful navigation. Overall, we really enjoyed staying here!

We were blown away by this rental. The space was exceptionally clean and equipped with everything we needed for our time in Scotland. It was centrally located and easy to get around the town. We loved the overall layout of the home. It was so nice for our family to be able to spread out after long days. I appreciated the welcoming gifts of bread, apples and chocolate. And, as silly as it may sound, it was nice to be able to keep up with laundry while on vacation. We purchased some towels locally, but if you do use a face towel to clean your skin at night, plan to bring some with you. Thank you for opening your lively snug up to us!

Great apartment for 4 adults!

Very nice stay overall with plenty of room for our group of four adults. It does sit overtop of a bar/restaurant and across the street from a (very good) pub. In early May, the noise wasn't too bad but there were some late night noises to go along with some early morning traffic noise. As it gets toward summer and busy season, we could see that being more noisy. It is hard to sleep too late though since the sun rises so early. It is an easy walk to get to the center of things but can be quite a walk to get to an area like Holyrood and Arthur's Seat. Sometimes we walked, once we took a cab to save time. Kitchen has everything you need although we didn't cook much besides toast as we were out and about pretty early each day.Maciej (host) was great! Extremely nice and polite and very communicative. He proivded a welcome basket too. We had a smoke alarm chirp one morning. I let him know I took it down and he came to replace the battery mid morning. You will need to keep in mind that there is a single bathroom with tub/shower which can sometimes get tricky on timing in the mornings. Water pressure was great though. One of the things we all noticed was how great the water was not just here but all over Scotland. We're used to hard water but this water is nothing like that and it just tastes better. Seems weird to comment on but we all noticed it. It was very warm so recommend having varued options for bedding (thin options vs. a single winter-grade blanket.) Great stay overall

Ideal apartment for a family stay

This apartment was ideal for our family, having all we needed and is located close to the centre of Edinburgh. The host was proactive with communication and was very helpful in making arrangements ahead of our arrival. The check-in arrangements worked well and were straightforward. The apartment is attractive inside and made for a very comfortable stay for our family.

A large apartment ideally situated close to Princes Street and the castle. Great communication from the owner. Probably not best suited for anyone with mobility issues. Some minor maintenance issues but these did not affect our stay and the owner is to resolve.

Great location and great host

We absolutely loved staying in this beautiful flat on our recent stay in Edinburgh. The location was perfect, a short walk to old town to take in all the events going on during Fringe but tucked just far enough out that we were able to get a sound sleep. LOCATION: The street it is located on has the cutest shops and restaurants including a fantastic little wine bar below, a bustling café we grabbed breakfast at and a little wine shop and deli for some evening snacks and drinks. If we were staying longer we would have also popped into the florist. There was a Sainsbury’s local right around the corner for basics. There is a tram stop a very quick 2 minute walk from the front door. FLAT: The flat itself is gorgeous and filled with natural light, it is beautifully and comfortably decorated, we loved the large-scale artwork, it felt like we were staying in a boutique hotel. It was also very clean and fresh. The shower was clean with excellent pressure, and the nice deep bathtub would have made a great spot to relax, if there had been time. The beds were very comfortable, especially after a long day of exploring the city. Having a washing machine and a dishwasher were appreciated features, the last thing I want to do on a vacation is wash dishes and the washing machine was an excellent feature for us on a multi-city tour. There were also tons of interesting titles to read and games to play if you’re looking to spend more time in the flat during your visit to Edinburgh.

Cozy Edinburgh City Apartment

Our apartment was bright and airy. We were greated with fresh cut flowers, bread, milk and butter-nice treat. Our beds were clean and comfortable. Our stay was for four nights. Our apartment was very close to all of the downtown Edinburgh attractions. A two minute walk to the tram.
