It’s accurately described as being on the Royal Mile. It’s a lively street almost all night and picks up early in the morning. We were prepared for the noise. My girls loved people watching from the window. The stairs are tight and steep. We only had carry on size bags. I image that any larger would have been difficult. The washer/dryer combo did the trick. The outlet in the closet/washer room didn’t work but there was an extension cord ready to go for the hallway outlet. We loved the central location and would stay again. The available tea, body wash, and shampoo was a nice touch.

Place was wonderful for anyone looking to explore Edinburgh. The living room was nice for a game or two with our group after long days of sightseeing. Kitchen was well stocked and the beds were very comfortable but the location right on the Royal Mile can't be beat. Would stay again!

If you want to stay somewhere great then this apartment is it. Smack bang in the middle of everything on the mile. Immaculate and spotlessly clean. The beds were comfy, kitchen decked out and a washing machine which was a bonus for us. Spacious rooms too which we found really good for our baggage etc. Cat is really easy to deal with also.

Fantastic location

This apartment was in the most central location in Edinburgh that you could hope for....right overlooking the Royal Mile. We stayed the weekend for our daughter's wedding and we only had to walk across the street to the City Chambers - absolutely perfect. The beds were comfortable and the showers good, plenty of space for all of us and very private.

Fantastic flat

Wonderful, extremely clean flat in perfect location. Beds were very comfortable. Stairs are challenging for carrying luggage but once luggage is up, is a total nonissue. At times was a bit loud at night being on the Royal Mile but was absolutely worth the location and price. Would definitely stay here again.

Awesome time in Edinburgh!

We had a great time in Edinburgh! The flat was absolutely lovely and conveniently located in the heart of the Royal Mile. So much to see and do...castles, museums, Christmas Market, shopping, tours, and dining....all around us! We will be back! Thank you for your sweet hospitality.

Terrific location, very nice and large apartment. As long as you don’t mind stairs, it is an ideal spot in the center of Edinburgh. Host was very responsive and communicative.

We loved our stay here and it was perfect for us as 3 adults. It was very central and easy to walk almost anywhere from this location and we loved sitting in the flat overlooking all the activity on the Royal Mile below. The host was very responsive to questions. As others have said, there is a 2 story spiral staircase but once your luggage is in the flat, it was easy. However, we wouldn't recommend it to anyone where stairs are a challenge.

Great Location, but take earplugs!

We spent 3 days here in October. It is a great apartment in an amazing location, with everything within easy walking distance. The only thing to be aware of is that as the property is right on the Royal Mile there is some street noise from early morning to late at night, so if you are a light sleeper make sure you pack earplugs.

Overall nice place/location

Stairs were wicked but fortunately we knew in advance so we were prepared. There was a little blip in communication but it all worked out. The flat itself was very cozy and comfortable in a wonderful location. We really enjoyed the city and the people and want to return someday.
