The location of this property is amazing! The back drop of the castle was fantastic. There was surprisingly a lot of space in the studio apartment. Extremely comfortable and an aspect of the garden to look out of over meal times. There was some issues with the maintenance of the property that the owner was quick to get back to us on. The tv was not a smart up to date tv so we were unable to watch our shows. Note; Bring your own fire stick!

The property was in a fantastic location to explore the city. The apartment was large with ample room for our family if 4. Good shower with complimentary toiletries. The kitchen area also had everything to get us started (a few more glasses would have helped). We were very pleased with the accommodation and having somewhere to store our bags before and after was also very welcomed. The accommodation exceeded our expectations.

We had a lovely stay overall—the apartment is in an unbeatable location next to Edinburgh Castle, beautifully designed, modern, and very well maintained. The only downside was that some basic essentials (like extra toilet paper, coffee capsules, and washing-up liquid) were not provided, which meant we had to shop for them. Aside from that small inconvenience, it’s a fantastic place and we really enjoyed our time there.

This is a fantastic choice for anyone wishing to explore Edinburgh. Location cannot be beaten with plenty of shops and food options around and the wonderful castle as a centerpiece. All the nice touches that make a stay enjoyable from coffee to shortbread, washer and dryer, and everything else you could need. Great customer service as well as we received a call back within 2 minutes of submitting a question about our booking. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend it highly.
