“Well-placed, fully stocked, and comfortable. The hosts were quick to respond and even left small Christmas gifts. Arrival was easy with clear instructions and a simple key collection. Despite being near the centre, it was quiet and spotless, with tea, coffee, milk, and biscuits provided.”

“Staying here felt like being treated like royalty. Everything I needed was on hand, and the free milk and biscuits were a lovely touch.”

9.6Verified guest

“The location is hard to beat – about 15 to 20 minutes from the Royal Mile. The flat has everything you need for a short stay, and the external key box made check-in a breeze. There are several parking options around, and the owner was easy to reach by text. The decor is lovely and the flat is very comfortable – you can tell the hosts are thoughtful, leaving festive treats and extras. Spotlessly clean throughout, and quiet at night even in the city centre.”

“Great value for money – the well-appointed one-bedroom flat in the centre exceeded what I expected. The spot was perfect, with easy access to the Royal Mile and sights. The hosts were kind and attentive, even providing small Christmas gifts, biscuits, and milk.”
