Amazing to stay right on the royal mile!!!! Comfortable cozy apartment in the heart of the attractions! The steps are tough, but my 76yo mom could handle them, it was worth it.

The location if this property was incredible!! It i perfect for a couple traveling together or a single. You are in a great place for everything! If you are not agile or like climbing stairs you might want to book something else! A spiral staircase and four floors can be a challenge, but the view is awesome.

Beautiful flat in a wonderful location-right on the Royal Mile and close to the castle. The flat was beautiful and had all the amenities we could want. Paul was quick to respond to questions. Check -in directions were very clear and made it easy to find the location. Would definitely stay again Thanks for a lovely stay.

You can't find a better location in Edinburgh...I dare you. Yes, there are 4 flights of stairs to climb up but it's worth it for the location. The apartment is comfortable for 4 people. Paul was a great host - everything was super easy even after traveling all day. Would stay here again!

Excellent location right on the Royal Mile just a short walk from all the major sights, especially the castle. We were there during the Fringe Festival and Military Tattoo and we had the most incredible view out our windows of the bands and pipers marching out each night. The apartment was clean, large, and modern with ample room for four women. The one thing to be aware of is that the only access to this fourth floor property is a stone spiral staircase so carrying suitcases up and down is an adventure.

The apartment was recently renovated and in excellent condition. It was clean and well kept. The location is the best. Right in the center of town. Street entertainers perform right in front and can watch from the windows. Probably the only drawback is that it is on the fourth floor with no elevator.

Excellent apartment, right on the Royal Mile

This is the perfect spot if you want to be in the action of the Royal Mile. Great pubs just downstairs. Beautiful view. Lovely late at night when the streets empty out a bit.

Great apartment in perfect location though those 4 flights of winding stairs after the marathon are tough!

Spacious apartment with updated bathrooms and a washing machine and nice kitchen. The view and location are amazing, especially if you are visiting for Fringe Festival, as we were. You will hear street noise at night if the windows are kept open. The beds are hard and not very comfortable. The pull-out couch bed is very, very uncomfortable. The apartment is a climb of 70 narrow spiral stairs to the 4th floor. No joke with luggage. It is very close to the castle and an easy 12 minute walk to Waverly Station.

Wonderful accommodations in a perfect location! Our family of four wanted to be in the heart of it all and could not have asked for a better spot. The apartment is spacious with every modern convenience and the owner was very responsive and helpful. The winding, medieval staircase is daunting, but the views of the Royal Mile are worth the workout!

What a place and location!!

We really enjoyed our stay and great communication from our host. The apartment was in the best location and was super nice. We were even able to look out the window to see King Charles. We were also just steps from the castle to see a concert. Really enjoyed our stay. Bravo for a great flat.

Edinburgh stay

A great location and a very nice apartment. We had a very nice stay. Wouldn’t recommend it for anyone with mobility issues as the stone stairs are quite steep and four flights. Would recommend it

Perfect location to explore Edinburgh

This apartment it self was absolutely perfect for us to be able to walk everywhere we hoped to go in 3 days. The only problem was navigating the stairs with suitcases. Paul was very accommodating and his Vrbo was immaculate, extremely comfortable and the view was amazing.
