Excellent location, also easy to get to. A little noisy but thays because it's right next to bars etc. Which isnt an issue if you're going to be at them!

The noise from the pub below went on most of the night. It was very loud at times out in the street. The stairs were a killer for us. So many and very steep and narrow. If you have trouble with stairs, this is not for you. The flat was clean and nice. But hard to get to for me.
The property is in a convenient location. It was easy to walk to all of our destinations in Edinburgh. We did like the fact that the whole family could be together in the apt.
It was extremely noisy.
Partying going on until 3-4 am. Cops and ambulances all through the night.
The building was non smoking but several times I could smell cigarette smoke coming through our door which then caused me to have a mirgrane.

God service og rengøringen var fin.
Lejligheden ligge utrolig centralt.
Meget slidt, og støj fra gaden.
Etlags glads i vinduer og tapet der er ved at falde ned.
Mutte i vinduer.
Sofaer og senge var meget slidte.

Stay close to city center
Nice flat very close to city center so it was very noisy all night. The flat is 2 stories up a very narrow stairwell, we did not bring our bags up because of the difficulty of the stairs and where we had to park. There is a paid garage at the radisson a block over (£30 a night), with the sloped streets, it is quite a hike. Bed was not very comfortable but very clean and a lot of space.

Apartamento muy comodo y excelente ubicación
Nos encanto el apartamento, era muy comodo, amplio, estaba muy bien ubicado, cerca de todo, eso fue lo que mas nos gusto, eramos 3, en la habitación no se sentia ni un ruido, en la sala en el sofa cama si se escuchaba pero igual podiamos dormir muy bien, nos toco el apartamentos numero 6 por lo cual nos toco subir muchas escaleras pero gracias a su ubicación este no fue un gran problema para nosotras, las llaves fueron muy faciles de reclamar inclusive el apartamento nos lo dieron antes de tiempo lo cual fue genial, nos guardaron las maleras durante el dia despues del check out asi que se portaron de maravilla, volveriamos a este lugar.
This could be a lovely place I love the old Town and old buildings this is why I booked this one in particular.
I had a few issues with this place 1 being the windows if you like to go to bed and sleep then until this problem is sorted this is not the place! We were awake till 5am with the outside noise coming through the the windows you literally felt as though you were outdoors it was that bad !
Another issue was after I booked this studio I had a email from the place saying there would be a £200 deposit needed on check in- this amount was not stated on the booking form as I would not have booked up here, anyway on arrival the man never asked for this money which we were glad about, they also state there is a daily reception 2-4 which there is not , we actually had a message to meet a person at a pizza shop round the back to receive the key to our studio we did this basically in the street which I found odd, in general this place was ok it was clean and the ladies that look after this place were very friendly and helpful, I would return if these minor issues were looked into as it is in a great place and location.
the location is good but there were several problems. First of all, there was no lift to go to the room and the steps were very narrow. The second, the shower was very weak and it was hard to control the best warm temperature. the third problem was the window glasses were not double, so the rooms were so cold. In addition, there were not enough heaters to keep warm this room. when I was using the heaters, they stopped suddenly. Finally, it was very noisy outside because there was a pub in the downstair.

Was actually bought for my dads birthday as a relaxing weekend.
First Problem, the windows are not sealed allowing a significant draft to come in, therefore the full apartment was absolutely freezing all night.
Second Problem, windows again the didn’t block out any noise of the nightlife below and my party of people were all kept awake until at least 5am.
Lastly, heating system was inadequate twice my dad had to phone someone to come and fix the heater, of which just didn’t work, not exactly helpful considering it’s the end of October.
Really nice apartments but only stay here if in the warmer months of the year and if you don’t mind noise from the street below.
All in all my party wouldn’t return again.

Bien situé, MAIS...
Appartement TRÈS bien situé (Royal Mile & Bridge St.), mais c’est aussi le coin le plus bruyant de la ville à la fermeture des pubs. Il faudrait la climatisation pour pouvoir garder les fenêtres fermées.
D’ailleurs il manque aussi plusieurs objets de base pour que cet appartement atteigne le minimum de confort...
Bien situé, mais il s’agit du coin de rue le plus bruyant de la ville.
Pas de sécheuse, ni débarbouillettes, ni lampe de chevet... de plus, la table et les (trois) chaises de cuisine sont comparables à celles que j’avais lorsque je faisais du camping à l’âge de 17 ans...
Really enjoyed visiting Edinburgh.The accommodation was all that we required. The only problem was the narrow winding staircase all the way up to the third floor.
Place is just needing to be swept and cleaned a bit more. Sheets clean but bugs galore in the apartment and it’s up 6 flights! Arrangements to get in are super complicated and even following them I was locked out for 4 hours. Great for the price for 4 people compared to most so great location just complicated
Location was the best ..... in centre city......next rest and attraction..................

This place has four floors with two units per floor. One of these is occupied by the manager...I'm not sure how many - if any at all - are occupied by long-term tenants. My unit was on the top floor, which is 73 steps up. And no lift! So be prepared to carry your luggage up a long, winding staircase with some uneven steps. Despite it being on the top floor, the unit was extremely noisy, almost if it was designed to get all the noise from the busy streets and the bar below. The bedroom had two very small beds. The previously mentioned sticky surfaces are likely due to the cleanser they use (floors were not sticky, just counter tops). There is NO signage that identifies this is the Niddry Apartments. The main door looks like it belongs to the ground-level bar and is simply designated with the numeral '5'. Check-in time is limited to two hours. I didn't use the kitchen so can't comment on this. The big feature of this property is that it is right in the middle of Edinburgh's very active nightlife. It is best suited to those who want this location, need a kitchen and can live with the noise, small beds, staircase, and narrow check-in time frame. Otherwise, I strongly suggest a hotel. My stay was in mid-September, so I can't remark on the adequacy of the heating system.
