Lovely stay with the best view in Edinburgh!
Pros: Beautiful in a great location. Bed so comfortable. Cons: The only issue was the bathroom had a very damp smell when you used the shower that didn’t ventilate out.

Beautiful well designed apartment in excellent location and highly recommend
Pros: Everything was fantastic. Highly recommend. Have been coming up to the Festival for 20 years and best apartment we have rented. Great location, quiet, scenic (close to start of Arthur’s Seat walk) and easy walk into old town and festival. Very comfortable and beautifully designed apartment. Everything thought about and carefully designed and detailed. Very much hope to return. Cons: All great
