Absolutely Fantastic!

Our stay in Edinburgh was amazing, largely due to this fantastic place. The location was perfect for exploring the whole city, the access was easy, and the interior was incredibly charming. Tons of space to spread out and really feel at home. Laundry facilities was a huge bonus as well. We will definitely consider staying here again if we make it back to Edinburgh.
