Great location with a few things to know
Great location for sure. Clean and spacious accommodations. Couple of things to note that others have stated: you have to pickup the key from a hotel 3 blocks away. the spiral stairs up to the apartments are no joke. Suitcases were a challenge for us. The bar noise isn’t that bad, but the street noise was very noticeable. There was also a lot of cigarette smoke from other apartments, bar, street that lofted up the stairs/windows. Overall we enjoyed our stay since we were only there for brief periods of times.

Central location & great apartment
Overall a beautiful apartment. Very spacious and clean. The location is very centrally situated in the Old Town area. The only negative feedback is the entrance to the building which was filthy with rubbish and mail. Not a great first impression and the internet connection was poor.

Absolutely FABULOUS rental in perfect location
We absolutely loved staying in this rental. Easy walk to everything we wanted to do. The apt was spacious, clean and we loved the location. Beds were very comfortable. Other reviews talk about noise, however we didn't notice - it was truly awesome location with new bathrooms and kitchen. Highly recommend! Two things worth noting: 1) the washer / dryer will take 4.5 hours (YES) per very small load. Even then your wash will not dry completely. Be sure to google how to use as the instructions are not clear. The #1 setting is what to use. 2) the door knob came off in the twin bedroom and our daughter was locked in with no way out if we were not there to open. Note: we were in Edinburgh 4th of July week which was super busy, so be sure to make restaurant and castle reservations in advance.

Awesome Place
Our stay at 6 High Street was very nice. The beautiful apartment was just as pictured and handily close to local attractions. Would love to stay again.

Beautiful,very noisy,
Property is beautiful and clean. The master bedroom is unbelievably noisy and bright. It’s like daytime all the time. We were 4 adults and we only had one key that works the downstairs door. It’s was a pain in the ass because one person in our group had classes everyday and came home for lunch. That meant we had to be there with the key to let her in. We on more then one occasion requested a second key. We were told. That they had to authorize it with the owner, so needless to say we were there a week and no second key.
