"Ideal place to stay size wise with the family with a teenage son it meant he had his own space. Comfy beds kitchen with dishwasher and washing machine. Staff were really friendly. The only down side I would say is that the 3 strip clubs at the end of the road. They were not an issue just a bit awkward with kids. 5 min walk to the grass market and the rest of the city is very accessible "

Native Edinburgh

4.0 star property
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (1024)
"Excellent location of property for price. Apartments have all amenitjes you could possibly want to self cater. There is a small shop on site for snacks and drinks. A greater choice of hard drinks would be nice. Customer service could probably be improved but wasn't bad. No soap in the bathroom. No apology from receptionist, and was more interested in getting housekeeping to resolve this the following morning rather than just getting this for us at the time. Receptionist seemed disinterested on...

"Very helpful staff over the duration of our stay. We arrived late at night &the emailed door codes worked with no problem, our apartments were warm with the lamps left on inside and milk in the fridge which was a lovely gesture. Apartments were spotless clean; however one of the two apartments we booked could do with being painted as the hall and living area were grubby. Otherwise, very well equipped. Lots of supermarkets within a 5minute walk and there is a cosy pub on the same street for...

Grassmarket Apartment with Castle View

3.5 star property
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (13)
"It can’t be said enough that there are lots of stairs involved in reaching the flat, both to the main door and then to the flat. I happened to be booked on the top floor so that was 4 flights to carry my luggage. That said, it’s kind of unavoidable in many parts of Edinburgh if you’re not staying in a big hotel. Otherwise, the view of the castle and the rest of the Old Town is hard to beat. The kitchen is well equipped with newer appliances and the bathroom is very clean with newer commode,...

"The place is great: clean, modern, spacious, nicely equipped (even with a small safe - like in a hotel!). Very easy to get to with a tram stop nearby. There is a storage room if you get there too early or need to leave hours before your next destination. However, there are couple things to know: - Unit 5 is on the second (European or third by US standards) floor without elevator (the stairs are very wide though) - There is not any coffee maker (like Nespresso or whatever with capsules) - There...
