Location: For doing things in the city center, the place is perfectly situated. Within walking distance are enough stores, shops, restaurants, etc. that you can do the normal stuff. The Botanic Garden is a bit of a walk but doable and worth it. All the tourist stuff is within an Uber drive that's cheap-ish. Property: the apartment is on the 2nd and 3rd floor (1st and 2nd if you're British) and the winding stairs is tricky to get luggage up. The place was built long ago but has the modern upgrades. The ceiling in the living area is quite the art piece. The kitchen is a bit cramped but is workable. Bedrooms are quite nice. Bath on the 2nd floor is very cramped but the one on the 3rd floor is fine. Overall, some aspects feel cramped but the old world feel of the place makes up for it. Lots of natural light. It has a homey feel to it: you know hundreds of people have lived their lives here and had a great time doing it. If you want to be centrally located in an old world home, I doubt you could do better. The owner communicated very well and was accommodating. She agreed to let us stow our bags in the apartment early on our arrival day (8 am) because our flights were coming in in the morning. Turns out the cleaning crew got done early and we were able to gain full access when we arrived around 10:30 am.

On arrival Rona made us welcome. Property was stunning inside and out and spotlessly clean. Great location for the centre of Edinburgh and exploring this amazing city!

We were a family of 5 adults and three children. The house was beautiful providing everything we needed. Our host Rona was very helpful and friendly. We quickly learnt how to get to the centre of Edinburgh either by walking or taking one of several buses. Useful shops very nearby. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to go back one day.

The townhome is situated within walking distance of many great restaurants and pubs. Although we could walk, we chose to take the bust to Old Town. The route runs very near the home. The home itself was spotless and very comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay and if we visit Edinburgh again, we'll definitely stay there!

Property was above expectations with beautiful more room than expected and close to pubs and shopping. Would definitely book this place again.

We loved this beautiful, historic and surprisingly comfortable property so very much. It made our magical stay in Edinburgh even better. The house itself was full of charm that just doesn’t come through in the pictures. I feared a historic house like this might not be as comfy, but those fears were also unfounded - the beds were plush and we slept better than anywhere else in Europe. Would definitely stay here again.

Absoloutely stunning apartment, superbly located just a 15min walk from the city centre. really well equiped kitchen, great bathrooms and lounge with a real working fire! Pity Hogmany celebrations were cancelled, but still a brilliant stay and looking forward to returning in the near future!
