Edinburgh Vacation

This property worked fine for our Scotland holiday. Location was good for us. Close to everything in Edinburgh. Within walking distance of attractions.Plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance. 15 minutes to the train station and bus depot. Only downside was that the rental is in a valley so every day started with an uphill walk. Probably not for anyone with mobility issuues.

Clean, comfortable and well located.

The apartment was very clean, comfortable, and well appointed. The location made it easy to get to all the attractions, from the castle to the palace. It is a block from the Royal Mile. We wished there had been a clothes dryer. Also more than one towel each for a six night stay. The one major drawback was the noise from all the bars on Cowgate, the street that fronts Tron Square. It is extremely loud in the front bedroom and not noticable in the back bedroom. The bars don't close until 3 AM. Don't book here for Friday or Saturday nights unless you're planning to be out partying yourself. Weeknights were fine.

Cosy flat in ideal location

A well appointed flat in an ideal location - 2 minute walk from Royal Mile, 5 minutes from Edinburgh Castle and 10 minutes from Princes Street and the station. There is a wide choice of cafes and restaurants within a 10 minute walk. We came for the Fringe and the flat was 5 -10 minutes walk from venues at Surgeon's Hall, Pleasance, Assembly and the Gilded Balloon so in a perfect location for us. The flat was clean, well decorated and had a modern kitchen and bathroom.

This was a charming property with the perfect amount of space for 3 adults. I only had a few issues. There is no air conditioning, which would have been fine if there had been a fan provided but there wasn't. You can not drive into the square so you have to carry luggage from the street up stairs into the square, then the 3 flights up to the apartment. The bed was hard and uncomfortable, this could easily be fixed with a cushy mattress topper.

Everything was good, comfy beds, could use blackout blinds and paper towel and kleenex, but overall a good experience. Anyone with trouble climbing alot stairs may need to try something lower to ground floor. 👍

A quaint place to call home in a prime location.

A family of 4 traveled to Edinburgh from Hawai’i island to support our island high school’s theatrical performances at the Fringe Festival 2023. This flat was located in the perfect location with access to many venues. Unfortunately, one family member suffered a knee injury en route to our destination making the 3 flights of stairs a bit challenging. We powered through it and the flat provided everything we needed. The only recommendation would be the benefits of a washer/dryer system for laundry. It took days to dry in the flat, and a 6 night stay required quick wash and dry options. Over-all it was a memorable experience with comfortable accomodations.

It was nice to have a bigger place to stay as a family of 4. The separate rooms that had actual beds rather than a fold out couch for the kids was great. It was spacious enough that we could get away from each other after spending a 5 day bus tour crammed into smaller rooms. The place was bright and clean. Great instructions were left for us. There was a new security gate installed the day we were there, so we didn't have the code for it, but a quick call solved that. They were very responsive and good at communicating. I would recommend this place to stay at while in Edinburgh.

Perfect Home Away from Home in Edinburgh

This was the perfect property to serve as base for our family of 4. We spent 3 nights at 419 and loved it. Nice large living area and kitchen. Very clean. 2 bedrooms. Windows that opened to let in breeze. Towels, sheets, a fully stocked kitchen, etc. Plus very close to shops, coffee, Royal Mile, pubs and other places to explore. Would absolutely stay here again when we return to town.

Mixed

Pros and cons - Pros: - the lovely, helpful Davide, sorted out our issue in a pragmatic, can do manner - thank you, it meant a lot. - bright apartment, central location, spacious bedrooms, plenty of wardrobe space, well equipped kitchen. - good communication prior to our stay. - the apartment was in a well lit area. Cons - - some areas of the apartment are definitely in need of updating or renewing. - the check in policy is not customer focused. - the poor service we received when we rang the helpline. The woman who answered our call was rude, unprofessional, unhelpful, belligerent and accused me of trying to blackmail her. The woman (she did not give her name when she answered the phone, nor any professional salutation to open the call, no evidence of professional telephone behaviour at all) should not be in a customer facing role.

Two bedroom apartment in the heart of Old Edinburgh

We really loved our stay in this apartment. The instructions on how to find the unit were bang on, which was really helpful since we arrived late in the day. The unit was clean and tidy, and had everything we needed, the book provided on how to work 'stuff' was helpful. The location was great - it was so easy to walk up the 'Close' at either end of the square to get to the Royal Mile. Walking along Cowgate was great too, and provided easy access to the Grassmarket and the Museum. The unit was spacious, so it was really nice to have some room to move around so freely. We were thankful to be able to make our own breakfasts, and we had take-away for dinner one night too, great to relax after walking the cobblestones all day. Thanks for sharing your unit, we really enjoyed having this as our home base for exploring Edinburgh!

Location was great. It started with a little confusion since we start with 1st floor, not ground so took a bit to find our apartment. The apartment looks like the photos. We were expecting a dryer versus a clothesline but it all worked out fine.

A great little base to explore the city

Once we'd got our bearings, the flat was easy to find and access. The slope down from the high street is VERY steep, which was no issue for us but might be for others. You really are just a few minutes from the High St, which meant no more than 10 minutes from the Castle/Victoria Street, maybe 20 minutes from Princes St and trams/buses to the airport/zoo. The flat itself was basically equipped; the kitchen had enough crockery etc for 3 of us for a few days. There are other basics there too such as soap, washing up liquid and dishwasher tabs. Oven gloves would be useful, but that might not bother other guests if they eat out every night. The area that the flat was in was quiet at this time of year, but I imagine in the summer - with windows open - could be different as there's a live music venue just down the road. Bedding and towels provided were clean and comfortable. One thing I will say is that all of the bedroom furniture has seen better days; for this specific reason, I didn't bother unpacking so as not to do battle with the drawers!. Also the bed in the double room could be bigger but that's just a preference, as we kept rolling right into each other in the night! Overall, the location was so ideal for us and we would be happy to return in the future.

Great location

The flat was great - good location and functionally perfect. Just a short walk (uphill or up stairs) and you are in all the right places for old town. Clean and good amenities. Only watch out is that it wasn’t that quiet as we were there in summer heat wave and it was very warm so with windows open it was loud when people left the bars on cowgate at 4 am.

Nice stay

Very centrally located in Old Town near St. Giles church. 10 minute walk to Waverly station. Apartment was clean and comfortable with views from the windows. TV was small. It's on the 3rd floor and there is no lift, so that might be a consideration if you have limited mobility. We made use of the clothes washer which was very convenient. Appreciated the fact that the location was quiet and not noisy. I would stay here again.

Great Property and Location

My daughter and I spent a week here in the process of moving her from US to Scotland to attend veterinary school. The entire arrival/stay/departure process was clearly explained in advance and the flat is lovely, with all amenities we needed. The location is great; everything was within walking distance. My daughter had recent ankle surgery and the big bathtub helped her to relax and do her PT exercises after long days discovering her new home. I was especially impressed with the responsiveness of the property managers both in advance of our arrival and when we couldn’t locate the COVID test kits delivered before our arrival. I’d stay here again. Highly recommend!
