Clean, comfortable and great location

This stay was a part of a much longer trip, and was the priciest of all our stays but worth it! While we were right next to three nightclubs it was never really noisy and the neighborhood felt safe. The apartment was clean and spacious! The staff were all very friendly and we even got a welcome basket for our stay! We would absolutely chose to stay here again when we come back to Edinburgh! We loved that it was close to shopping and eateries

Perfect accommodation for a family. So pleased to arrive and find it stocked with breakfast items. Very thoughtful. Close tourist attractions, but be warned there are three gentlemen’s clubs on the same corner. However, it was not loud at night. We slept with windows open without issue
