Perfect location. We were steps from the Royal Mile, the castle, and endless restaurants, yet the first-floor flat was wonderfully quiet at night. Slept like a dream! Clean, cosy, and well equipped, with a host who was warm and quick to respond. Easy check-in and great local tips. Highly recommend!

Excellent location close to royal mile, apartment was clean, well maintained and nice amenities. The issue is the noise - the close backs on to a hotel and bar and staff use the entrance for their breaks all through the night. On friday and Saturday nights I slept with ear plugs but was still woken hourly by the noise. During the week, it was a little quieter but I was still woken 3 or 4 times. The windows are so thin it sounds like people even speaking are in the apartment.
Had a great stay. Place was clean and quirky but that was fun. One issue with supplies (no toilet paper). We had to go find our own. The shower is interesting but works fine. The location was great except for late night loud conversations in the alley. maybe workers getting done with their shift. A little smelly in the alley with the trash as well. Other than that we loved it.
This was a great place for our family of 4 to stay for an Edinburgh trip. It is perfectly located in the heart of the royal mile close to pubs, shops, and historical sites and is an easy walk from Waverly train station. Plenty of space for everyone and nice modern fixtures and appliances. Would definitely recommend.
This is a perfectly located spot right off the royal mile. It was clean, comfortable and modern. It was busy overnight with a pub nearby and some loud neighbors, but otherwise a perfect stay.
