These apartments are great value for money. We stayed here for two nights as part of a hen do trip and couldn't have been more comfortable. They're not too far from anywhere, we walked for most of the time, although got a taxi in the evening as Edinburgh is not the place to walk around in in heels! It was... More

Was a clean and warm place, A lot of space we had a 2 bedroom apartment two double beds. A bit further out but not an issue to walk as its a nice city to walk about in. Friendly staff at key collection. Quiet and some nice restaurants in the area.

Key collection at a different venue but clear directions to apartment provided by helpful staff in the office who also offered to look after luggage on day of departure if needed. Stayed in apartment 8 (1 double, 1 single bed) near top of building so lots of stairs to climb. Wasn't a problem for us as we had little luggage,... More

Royal mile is just 15 minutes walk from apartment. We rented the 2 bedroom apartment. There was a dishwasher and washing maschine. Apartment was clean and big !!! The Staff was friendly and helpfull. Only drawback is that there is no lift in building so dragging heavy suitcases up stairs is a pain but at least it was only for... More

Great central location but even taking into account it was Fringe time when we went, i have too agree with others who have stayed here, it is very noisy most nights with two very lively late night pubs right next door. Otherwise happy with... More

My wife and I stayed here whilst doing the Edinburgh marathon. The apartment was excellent throughout and is modern and clean. We asked for a travel cot to be provided which wasn't an issue and the staff were more than helpful to any requests. Royal mile is just a short walk away so it is ideally situated for sights. There... More

I am not sure these apartments warrant the 4 star rating they claim to hold. While there was nothing particularly wrong with the apartment, but there was nothing exceptional. The rooms were clean and the location was central. However, the amenities were pretty basic. The mattresses were not very comfortable (we rented a 2 room apartment and the single room's... More

The secondary double glassing was cheap and badly fitted the street was very noisy the location... More

We stayed here on a Laterooms deal and at £79 for 2 beds, I would book again. Down Sides: Not as large as the website suggests, staff at the key collection office wouldn't allow me use loo (desparate after 2 hr drive), entrance scruffy, 2nd bedroom was really a single with a double bed squashed in and lounge noisy with...
