We had a lovely stay at Lucy's apartment. Everything was spotless and as pictured in the listing. Very close to bus stop made it convenient to get around Edinburgh with no bother. Definitely would stay again...even with the 3 flights of stairs to get to the apartment! Thanks Lucy.

A bit of a bad first impression with the dank stairwell. Apartment was ok but the furniture and bedding were a bit grungy and worn looking. Strong smell of smoke in the kitchen & bath. Would not stay again unfortunately

This apartment is in a fantastic location for exploring the centre of Edinburgh by foot. It’s clean and bright and has a good vibe about it. Communication with the host Lucy was really easy too. The only minor issue we had was with unloading and loading our luggage from the car as we found parking quite tricky near the apartment- but all worked out ok in the end. We had a fantastic couple of days here and would definitely recommend.

Great location. Lovely, comfortable apartment with big windows. We appreciated the washing machine and coffee pods milk steamer oat milk. We would have liked a bigger pot, wooden spoon, and colander. We couldn’t get the tv to work but didn’t inquire because it wasn’t important. Negatives: The curtains did a poor job of blocking morning light, and the fans brought in a stale cigarette smoke smell from the apartment below. Owner said she is aware.

This property was perfect for our short trip to Edinburgh, not too far to walk into the centre and a supermarket across the road. The apartment was clean, warm and extremely comfortable. Lucy was an excellent host, communication was excellent. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend.

The location information was inadequate and UBER got lost trying to find it. We didn't have the apt number or instructions. It would have been very helpful to know that it was apt 5 and that it required climbing three flights of winding stairs with heavy luggage. Once we got in, things were OK.

Cute and situated in a great location; close enough to the city center (10-15 minute walk through the park) but far enough so you feel like a true Scot! We loved it.

Lucy is a wonderful host, very communicative and all info super clear. Top floor, so be prepared for that, but a beautiful building, lovely view of the hills over the rooftops and a very comfortable and clean flat. Suited us perfectly. Lovely area too. Lots of local independent cafes. Great bus connections. Would 100% be my first choice if in Edinburgh again.

It was nice and clean but for anyone with limited mobility it should be noted that there’s 3 serious flights of stairs to climb before you get to the door. So if you have heavy luggage or elderly people keep that in mind Communication was fantastic and the flat has everything you’ll need

Perfect Concert Accommodation

Great sized flat, well furnished and perfect for a Murrayfield concert. There's free parking a short walk away and plenty of places to eat and drink close by. Both double bedrooms have comfy beds with plenty of storage. My parents, partner and myself all sleep very well.

Great Apartment

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lucy and James apartment. It is clean, comfortable and well equiped with everything we needed. The walk to the Royal Mile and Castle is an easy 20 minute stroll with plenty of cafes and bars along the way. Communication was excellent and check in and out went very smoothly. We would definitely return and highly recommend this lovely apartment.

The apartment was very nice but there was one overwhelming issue and that was the person in the apartment below is a chain smoker and the smoke seeps up into the bathroom so that it was awful in there if you ever turned off the fan. Even if its always on it was still pretty bad. It seeped up into the kitchen a bit as well but it wasn't that bad there. It's a shame because they have really spent some time and money on the apartment but these old apartments always have cracks and gaps so they're not air tight. I don't think the owners can address this issue. So if smoke bothers you or if you have asthma you might wantbto try somewhere else.

Edinburgh trip

The apartment is terrific and worked perfectly for us. It is a third floor walk up apartment, which was a little challenging for the older members of our party. But all in all, a really wonderful apartment conveniently located on several bus lines with easy access to downtown and all of Edinburgh. We had a great time and are happy to recommend this apartment.
