Perfect location for exploring Edinburgh
This is a lovely apartment on and overlooking the Royal Mile, but the bedrooms are at the back so not disturbed by noise. There is a good sized lounge area and a breakfast bar seating area. The location could not be better. It is worth noting, however, that the access is via several spiral stairs.

Great location but wish we had known about the steep stairs to the unit. Challenging getting suitcases up those stairs. Would be helpful to have some instructions about the radiators, buzzer, etc. Comfortable beds and seating in living room

In the heart of old town. Great location. The apartment was very cozy and super cute. Stairs were no joke though! Be prepared to climb with all your luggage.

Excellent Location.
The location is perfect but the spiral stairs are brutal with suitcases. Not mentioned in the listing but we saw reviews that mentioned it. We are in our 60's and 70's and it was very difficult hauling our bags. Because of this, I wouldn't suggest this place for older people. But the location is perfect and we were able to see a parade for the King out of our window. That was exciting.

Great stay on the Royal Mile
What a brilliant location! We loved our short stay here. Warm, comfortable and immersed in the atmosphere of the Royal Mile. The bedrooms were quiet and peaceful and the beds were very comfortable. The only downside are the stairs to get up into the apartment. If you are fit, they would not be a problem but the stairs are steep and narrow and it's 3 flights up.

Location was awesome...right on the royal mile Maybe this was in the description but we did not see it...flat is on the 4th floor so had to walk up 4 flights of revolving staircase with heavy luggage...that was a surprise. Flat was clean, beds comfortable, bathroom was fine...only downfall...place smelled like smoke so we had to keep windows open the entire time...could not connect to internet either...

Amazing Location
This apartment was perfect for us. It's very walkable to just about everything we wanted to see and cozy when we wanted to rest on a cold, rainy evening. Pros: Clean, spacious, very central location, easy to stop in between sights/shopping/eating, good heating, good price. Cons: Narrow circular staircase without the best handrail, small shower if you're very tall or broad-shouldered, can be noisy (but that's the price of being in a central location). We would stay in this place again if we came back!

Really easy check in and short walk from Waverley train station. Lovely view looking down on the royal mile and great spacious apartment with range of utilities. Heads up there's a few flights of stairs to get to the apartment.

Adorable and perfectly located flat
The flat was a perfect size for our family of 4. We loved the location right above the Royal Mile. The windows opened easily which was nice for viewing and hearing the activities below- including sounds of bagpipes. The bedrooms were nice and quiet though because they're located on the backside. It was clean and had modern facilities. The climb up is the only difficult part but it helped burn off the calories from all the good eats nearby! Overall very nice and would highly recommend!!

Fabulous Edinburgh Apartment
Just back from a two day trip to Edinburgh to see Hamilton at the Festival Theatre, run Holyrood Parkrun and visit the Scottish parliament, and what a fantastic weekend we had! The apartment is in a perfect location for everything and is also super bright and spacious and very well equipped. It was very clean and tidy, had lovely towels, plenty of storage for our clothes and a really decent kitchen for a short stay. Accessing the flat was easy. The stairs, although spiraling up 3 floors, were also much more easily negotiated than other similar Edinburgh apartments we have previously stayed in. Bedrooms are to the back so away from the street noise and a good night's sleep was enjoyed after each busy day. Would book again next time we visit the Capital.

Very nice flat with great location
Flat was fairly clean. I'm a clean freak so not 100% to my standards, but pretty good. The flat is fourth floor with a spiral staircase and I wasn't sure about this. I'm a 53 year old fat lady with a bad knee, and I made it just fine. I had to rest on the way up, but made it without too much trouble. Carrying luggage, it's a lot. The flat is comfortable with most of the conveniences of home. Lots of helpful travel books and brochure. Location couldn't be better being about half way of the Royal Mile.

We enjoyed our stay here. It was right in the center of everything , very walkable to everything. It was comfortable and clean. The host was very responsive. It is on the 4th floor and the steps are small and spiral but it wasn’t a big deal to us, it was fine. We loved it. I highly recommend staying here if your in Edinburgh.

This was a very comfortable place to stay, right on the Royal Mile. The bed was nice and firm, living room couches were nice, bathroom equipped with amenities. The host was quick to respond to a minor problem that was fixed in minutes. There is quite a bit of stairs getting up to the flat, but doable even with luggage. Was nice to look out the windows and see what's happening on the street below. I'd stay here again if and when I'm back in Edinburgh

Nice, but would not book it again due to stairs
Great unit in excellent location. It would have been fine if we were just weekend travelers with small luggage or backpack. We'd been traveling for 15+ days with medium size suitcases and backpacks which made it extremely difficult to climb 4 flights of a spiraling staircase. But for that, its a great place to stay.

Location on the MILE
This property was perfect for those who want to stay as central to EVERYTHING in Edinburgh. Easy to explore the city when your flat is a stone's throw away from all the excitement! Surprisingly quiet for being so close to the action. Very well kept and comfortable. The location of the entry is a little tricky, but we had some nice people help point us in the right direction. Only word of warning is getting up to the flat - spiral stairs up about 4 floors. Its a little tricky if you have heavy bags.... however its WORTH IT. Had an amazing time - would highly recommend.

Killer Spot at the heart of Edinburgh
I stayed with my wife and two of our friends at the flat, and was really happy with our choice. Less than a 10 minute walk from most of our planned activities, the train station, and the castle set on a gorgeous part of the royal mile. The flat was clean, the property manager was helpful, and it has great views out both sides!

Pre Christmas Break
The apartment was lovely and warm, very nicely furnished and cosy and had everything we needed to ensure a pleasant and comfortable stay. Central to everything the position is perfect on the atmospheric Royal Mile, we loved watching from the window seat in the apartment. We went to the castle light show, the vaults tour, the Christmas markets and the Monkey Barrel Comedy Club. Yes the stairs up to the apartment are steep but didn’t pose a problem for us. The location is brilliant. Our host Andy was very helpful and quick to respond. Check in really easy. Would definately stay again.

Clean and comfortable
We enjoyed our stay very much. Apartment was spotlessly clean, comfortable with all facilities you would need. Stairs up to the apartment are fairly steep solid spiral which make your heart pump. This would not put us off returning. Location is brilliant, right in the middle of things. Bedrooms are at the back of the property so sleep is not distrubed. Would definitely reccommend.
