Everything was just perfect. Very grateful for Duncan’s communication throughout our stay and booking. Thanks!

Wonderful location right on the Royal Mile and close to train station/buses. Multiple great restaurants nearby, with several right across the street. Clean, comfortable flat with space for our family to spread out. Beds were lovely and flat was well-outfitted. Duncan was also a great communicator and responded immediately to our questions and also offered some excellent suggestions for our stay. We will definitely stay here again next time we are in Edinburgh.

Apartment was exactly as advertised from the listing. Very clean, well-heated, and super convenient to the Royal Mile sites and the train station. Appreciated the umbrellas as Scottish weather is certainly unpredictable. Place felt safe and price was reasonable. Duncan was great at communicating (why we picked this listing as others mentioned him) and check-in and out was easy. Would stay here again if I needed two bedrooms.

We stayed for a week. We could pop down to cafes or the grocer on the corner. Dinner across the street at White Horse Oyster Bar was a favorite. Ten minutes to the trail for Arthur’s Seat. There was some street noise on Friday and Saturday nights, but not terrible.
The apartment is well stocked and comfortable. Good WiFi. We would definitely stay here again.

Duncan’s flat is extremely cozy and in an amazing location. Just a few minute walk from the train station, the royal mile and new town with access to amazing restaurants and pubs. The flat itself comes with everything you might need for a trip!

Duncan communicated all the info that we would need, which made our stay delightful. He responded quickly to questions that we had. No details were overlooked in this cozy Royal Mile flat.
Added bonus: so close to the train station and wonderful restaurants and pubs close to the flat!
Thank you, Duncan, for a wonderful stay!

We were there for the Fringe and this was our best location yet. Duncan was an excellent communicator and the place was really comfortable, light and bright. As expected, there was some noise Friday and Saturday nights but that’s what Edinburgh and the festival are all about. Loved it.
5.0
I have been communicating with Duncan about this trip for 9 months. Wanted to take my daughter and granddaughter to celebrate her high school graduation with something special and memorable. Duncan did NOT disappoint! Wish there was an option of more than 5 stars as he deserves them. Flat could not be more conveniently located. Do not hesitate to stay here!

This flat is a great place to stay in Edinburgh, right in the Royal Mile - mid way between the Castle and Holyrood. Despite the austere exterior and entry, the flat is cozy and comfortable with a well appointed kitchen and laundry. The main sitting room is great for hanging out and has a place for dining. Duncan (the host) is on top of everything, providing clear instructions and quick answers to any questions.

7-night stay, absolute delight. Location, Location, Location !!! Every appointment of the flat was first-class. 1/4 mile from tour route bus, 10 or more dining within 1/8 mile. YES, we'd return!

We enjoyed our stay. Location is very close to major attractions and restaurants. We would stay again.
5.0
The location was very convenient to all of the major attractions. The apartment was very comfortable with nice size living room and bedrooms. The bathroom was rather tight with little space to place toiletries and could use some upgrading. If you're driving yourself the arrival may be somewhat stressful. There's no "legal" place to park for unloading and loading except right on the curb of the busy street and the closest parking garage is a couple of blocks away so try to plan ahead for that. The building entry could use some upgrading and cleaning, but get past that and the apartment is comfortable and quiet.

Excellent property owner
Duncan couldn't have been nicer as a property owner and the location was great. Really close to everything and we could just walk to most places. We had a great time visiting Scotland and Duncan was very helpful whenever I asked him questions. He was prompt and courteous. It was a great experience for me and the rest of my family. Duncan made it easy to be relaxed and have a great experience.

Excellent 10 days.
The location was perfect for our trip. We had several family and friends staying close by and they could meet us at our flat as we were very central. It was quiet but could sit and people watch from our couch. Would love to stay here again.

Perfect match
My sister and I traveled to Scotland from the US. Duncan’s communication leading up to it was on point. Accessing the property was easy. Duncan was quick to reply with questions. And the location was perfect! 100% recommend this property.

Nice location on the Canongate end of the Royal Mile -- walkable to lots of sights and transportation choices. The property has two bedrooms, a lounge/eating area, compact but well-stocked kitchen, and a bathroom away from the bedrooms (makes it quieter for those sleeping). This area is a very popular tourist location -- lots of street activity (people out and about) late into the night - so the front bedroom can be a bit noisy; one gets used to it after a bit. Don't suppose that it would bother an "urbanite!" We appreciated that its location was only a 10-15 minute walk to the castle, restaurants, shops, old town, etc.

Birthday treat
The apartment has a great location, near to Waverley station & most major attractions. Plenty of restaurants within a short distance. All of the amenities within the apartment more than met our expectations. The only exception being the washing machine which we were unable to use as the handle/door lock was broken. We would also have liked a window blind in the bathroom . Thanks for a lovely stay.
