Great location across the street from St. Giles church. Walking distance to all major attractions in Old Town Edinburgh. Apartment was spacious for our family of five. The host was very helpful and very communicative. I highly recommend staying at these apartments.

Disappointing and ruined our stay in Edinburgh.
Not a modern apartment in any sense of the word, decor looks dated from circa 2005 as well as the technology and was told it had been student accommodation recently. Had to chase check-in info and then wait for keys to be cut as landlord was still getting the place ready, Apartment was old, tired and worn, lightbulbs were missing, light fixing in bathroom just hanging out by wires, floor tiles loose and cracked, no hand soap in any of the dispensers, no tea/coffee or washing up liquid, not even any toilet paper, bathroom sink was blocked, no internet as advertised, a 5G dongle was promised to be delivered the first night and only delivered a day later after being chased. Heating stopped working on the first morning as boiler lost pressure and landlord had to come over again as apartment was freezing. Heating or hot water wasn't right during our stay. Window blinds missing string to close them. Standard terrestrial TV that had to be retuned for 15 mins every time it was turned on. No extra blankets just one thin duvet in a cold apartment. Apartment maintenance has just been neglected and it felt cheap and as little as possible has been spent on it. Location and view from window was great but little else. Would not stay there again.

Muy céntrico y agradable
Es muchos más sencillo de lo que se indica no hay que avisarles por teléfono antes, con un SMS es suficiente y ellos un día antes contactan con el cliente también por SMS y antes de llegar te envían las instrucciones había 2 secadores de pelo no es bajo petición y nos encontramos con café y té, está situado a 5 minutos del castillo y en pleno centro de la ciudad

Could be great!
Lovely kitchen/lounge area but furniture very tired. Sitting furniture very impractical and uncomfortable. Shower quality not commensurate with “penthouse”. Could be a fabulous apartment with better quality furnishings.

Estuvimos en el festival de Edinburgh y fue excelente estadía. El apartamento te hace sentir cómodo, amplio y tiene todas las comodidades. Al salir del apartamento te encuentras en la calle peatonal y cerrada por el festival, accedes a cualquier parte desde este punto. Sin duda volvería a hospedarme.

Not a hotel. But fine in other respects.
Not sure why this is considered a hotel. It was nice, but it is not a hotel, more like an airbnb or something. No check-in desk, no daily cleaning service, no luggage storage. The close (alley) was dirty and the main door to the apartment building is across from a trash container that had broken glass all around it. But the apartment itself was clean, spacious, has a great location. I also think it is a bit overpriced. If it were on another website that is not for hotels, the price would probably have been less.

Absolutely 5*. location, apartment, service 5*
Absolutely superb. Starting with the location, it is slap bang in the middle of the Royal Mile. Unbelievable. But whats great is its in a close so you have the peace and quiet when you are in your luxurious apartment - a huge open plan kitchen and lounge with wonderful views of the city.
The apartment has two rooms, one with a double bed and en suite bathroom and another bedroom with a double bed and a single bed. This room also has a walk in wardrobe. Additionally there is another bathroom so there are 2 bathrooms in total in the apartment. So clean too. Towels etc are provided as is cutlery in the kitchen. Microwave, dishwasher, fridge, freezer, electric cooker, you name it its all there.
A large flat screen TV in the lounge with comfy sofas and a DVD and blu ray player, sky TV and most importantly of all a Playstation 3 which was crucial for our reunion of university friends.
In the build up and while we were there, Sean was fantastic in giving us information and communicating with us. Honestly I was so surprised with how great this apartment. It was a joy coming back to it every day. And the location could not get better. Walk down the steps and you come to where the bus from the airport will drop you. Buy the £7.50 return from the Airlink bus stand at the airport and catch the 100 bus each way. Easy as pie.
I will be back, great stay.

4 grabbar nöjda med en 4 dgr vistelse.
Läget är alldeles utmärkt om man vill upptäcka staden, besöka pubar o restauranger mm.
Tar man buss Airlink 100 från flygplatsen är det bara ca 3 min gångväg. När du stängt grinden till gården är det bara 10 m så är du mitt på huvudgatan The Royal Mile. Lägenheten bra tekniskt utrustad med stor tv, en fin stereo, surround ljud, högtalarsystem för Iphone. Värmen går enkelt att justera. I köksväg finns allt, sängarna hyfsat bra. Värden Sean är mycket snabb och lätt att få kontakt med, bra tips på restauranger som vi följde några av, och dem var bra.

Erinomainen sijainti keskellä kaupunkia. Lähellä monia ravintoloita, kahviloita ja kauppoja. Huoneisto sijaitsee vanhassa rakennuksessa, kapeita portaita piti kiivetä toiseen kerrokseen. Sisäänkirjautumistiedot saatiin tekstiviestillä saapumispäivänä.

Amazing location
Could not imagine a better location for seeing all the popular attractions, minutes by foot from Castle, Holyrood Palace, St Giles Cathedral, Museums and Galleries, restaurants and bars by the dozen within 5 minutes walk.....super fun and exciting vibe right out the front door. The location is a little intimidating when you first arrive and climb the stairs towards the apartment, you may initially think that you made a mistake renting this place, but once you step inside and then discover how great a location you are in you will be sure to have a great time.....would 100% recommend......I regularly stay in ultra high end 5 star hotels throughout the world, in not saying this is the same as a Four Seasons or Ritz etc. but it's a really great place to stay in Edinburgh, keep in mind this is a very old building in a very old city....rooms are small compared to newer building in other parts of the world, but everything in this place is perfect for what you need in Edinburgh....

Great location on the Royal Mile
Great location on the high street. Small wc/shower- but ok, very large livingroom/kitchen and great large sofa. 2 bedrooms with double beds. Only drawback, was no call was provided regarding pickup- however, their office i just around the corner, and friendly staff provided keys, and info shorty after :)
