It couldn’t be more perfect. One thing to note is that the first floor in the UK is at the top of a flight of stairs. We didn’t expect that but it’s standard here. ##### Tara Z. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Gabrielle Apr 3, 2023 Liked: Communication The position of the apartment was terrific, being close to the train station and the Royal mile. The communication was very good and clear in relation to the keyed entry. The bathroom was clean and the water hot. We walked everywhere and the area was very safe. Disappointing was the old dusty carpet and grotty stairwell. I was surprised to have to strip the bed of linen and find old duvet and mattress cover. For the price a hotel stay would have been a similar price, with better linen, towels etc. ##### Gabrielle Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tom C. May 16, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Apartment is nice. Building is not nice. I would not stay here again. We had a trash heap of old bicycles with rotted tires and other crap just outside of our door. And from the smell it seems cats would occasionally make their way in thru a broken window of a door to an outside landing and pee somewhere in the hallway. The apartment itself is not bad and seemed well kept. Good hot water. Nice kitchen. Bathroom fan needs some work. ##### Tom C. Stayed 8 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather M. Aug 2, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Super Convenient! We found this property to be very convenient to all of the things that we were looking to do while in Scotland. We were just steps from the Royal Mile and about halfway between Holyrood and Edinburgh Castle. We were able to walk to and from the airport tram with our luggage and catch the train at Waverley Station two of the mornings. We also could walk to the Rabbies office for our day tour to the highlands. One of the reasons tha twe had gone to Edinburgh was to check out the University, and we were able to walk from campus to our flat very easily as well. Everything was clean and easy to use! I would recommend this place to someone else who wants a good starting point for their day. ##### Heather M. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Mike G.

Daughter slept on the sofa bed in the front room. Mattress was thin, according to my daughter. Apartment was clean, however aged. Floor in the hallway was very uneven. Was very nice to have separate rooms for sleeping, and the kitchen was separate from the front room, so both of us could sleep in without disturbing the other in the morning.

Apr 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A Nice Flat in an Ideal Location This flat is in an ideal location for travelers looking to explore areas on and around the Royal Mile. An easy walk to and from Waverley, with luggage. About a half block walk and you are on the Royal Mile. The flat has all of the comforts one needs while traveling. One flight of stairs and you are at the door. Easy in and out. The bedroom is away from the street so if there is a light sleeper, road noise is inaudible, and there isn’t much noise anyway. It suited our needs completely. ##### Martin O. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2023
