Amazing host with a great location stay

Pros: Amazing location, very clean and had lots of toiletries and kitchen staples provided

Cons: Bathroom was quite small but done the job

Adams 10/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Pros: Very central to everything. Lovely view of castle. Great apartment.

Cons: Staircase was a concrete spiral stairs with no hand rail. I've mobility issues so it wasn't ideal but was such a great apartment I'd still say there again x

Gabrielle 10/10

Cosy apartment & great base for sightseeing

Pros: The sofa bed was a decent size and the space was more than adequate for 3 people. The kitchenette was great, equipped with a kettle, microwave, toaster and oven. The location is superb and the view of the castle never gets boring.

Cons: There are a few spiral steps up to the apartment and there isn’t a handrail so perhaps that would be useful, but there aren’t many steps and none of our party struggled with them.

Great little flat in the heart of Edinburgh with a lovely view of the castle.

Pros: Nice little flat, clean and thoughtfully furnished with a lovely view of the Castle and the Grassmarket below.

Cons: An instruction booklet on how things in the flat worked and especially the heating would have been useful.

Very good stay

Pros: The location and view were amazing. There was breakfast food and tea coffee in the apartment, very nice. Quiet despite central location, no noise from cafes downstairs. Everything was comfortable for 2 people staying in separate beds - private.

Cons: The windows are a bit draughty though the heating worked well. The heater was a bit noisy being near the bedroom. It was a cold few days in Edinburgh. The stairs up to apartment were steep and uneven, especially with a suitcase, but it's not owner's fault.

Pleasant stay. Would have loved to have stayed longer but had to move on.

Pros: Perfect location under the Edinburgh Castle. Lovely local shops to look in. Apartment was comfortable and had everything we needed.

Cons: Overall the apartment was lovely and had everything we needed. The only downside was that the bathroom was a little small. But it was lovely and clean and we would stay there again.
