Perfect!

Exceeded our expectations. We were worried as we booked a windowless room at basement level. It was large, bright and spotlessly clean so didn’t feel at all claustrophobic. It was also very quiet so never disturbed at night. The apartment was very well equipped and all you need for a self-catering trip.

Great place to stay

This is a great place to stay in the heart of Edinburgh. Staff were helpful and friendly. Apartment was spotless. Only a few niggles…… one of the toilet seats needed tightening, there is no microwave and no drawer storage at all which if sorted, would have made the stay perfect.
