Great location
This property is perfect for anyone who enjoys the hustle and bustle of city life. There are lots of bars and restaurants nearby (but be ready for nightlife noise) and it’s easy to walk to all the attractions in Edinburgh! The owner is lovely, easy to communicate with, and good at responding quickly. My friends and I had a wonderful time. Be ready to walk up several flights of steps with your luggage, but it’s worth it for the location and cleanliness of the property! Would stay there again!

Really Nice Flat Good Downtown Location
We had six adults and three children ages 5 to 10. Good sized flat so it worked for us. Location in New Town at the base of Calton Hill so lots of stuff close by. The one consideration is the pub across the way that is open very late (2 or 3 AM) with loud patrons outside. Muffled if you keep the windows closed. We’d stay again if we had a need for that many people.
