Wonderful home away from home.

Appreciated books, local maps, extra adapters, sweet treats, teas, comfortable living room, cleanliness, security, decor. Did not anticipate there was no lift to bring our 3 large luggage bags up the 3 flights of 21 stairs each. Lack of accessibility should be more clearly stated.

Perfect in every way!

This property was way beyond our expectations! It was walking distance to so much that Edinburg has to offer, but in a quiet location. Martin has thought of everything to make the stay special and the decor of the flat is spot on. Beautifully worn wood floors, comfortable and useful space with real furniture, not rental property stuff. Bravo!

Edinburgh flat

Martin's place was perfect for me and my two adult children. My son and I flew over from the States to visit my daughter who is studying at St. Andrew's University. The flat was perfect - cute, clean, comfy, and was located within walking distance of everything we needed. We would definitely stay there again!

Nice property in good location

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It is located near excellent restaurants (Vittoria), shops, etc. the bathroom has been updated since photos so that was a nice surprise. We appreciated the laundry drying line inside - that worked great! We also enjoyed the selection of movies, we found some old favorites! Property owner was responsive and accommodating. Overall we very much enjoyed this space (4th floor walk up) and would recommend.

Great stay

We had a great stay. Wonderful bathroom with plenty of hot water. Well stocked, updated kitchen. Kitchen has been renovated since listing photos. Comfortable living room. Beds are only double, rather than Queen, which was a bit small for the over six foot males. One bedroom doesn’t have exterior window. Apartment is on third floor, so lots of stairs and no lift. Great view though because of that. We had a great time.

Great Location

This apartment had a lovely view of monument hill & was conveniently located so walking to Holyrood Palace & Edinburgh Castle was doable. The layout was nice & the kitchen well equipped for cooking meals. The owner was in contact with us from the beginning &readily available if we had any questions. It is really a great place, just be aware there are 3 full flights of stairs to haul luggage up and down, but we only had to do that on arrival & departure. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place.

Absolutely Lovely

My sons and I stayed in this very cozy, charming flat for several days. It is warm and inviting with beautiful views of Calton Hill. Fantastic neighborhood near many shops and restaurants. Many have commented on the stairs but I found them very manageable. My sons were intrigued by the clothes dryer which lowered from the ceiling. The kitchen was well equipped allowing us to cook with ease. The beds were very comfortable and the room darkening curtains were a bonus. I highly recommend this flat.

Delightful Apartment in Convenient Location

We loved this apartment! It was very clean and well appointed with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Even though it's not in the center of the most touristy part of Edinburgh, we could easily walk in 20 minutes to the castle and Royal Mile. We made Calton Hill our first stop which gave us a great introduction to the city - only a short (and steep) walk from the apartment. And the view of Calton Hill at night from the apartment was breathtaking. Walking up three flights of stairs was daunting with our suitcases but well worth it for the view - and the delightful accommodations. We wiould definitely book again!
