10/10 Exceptional

This property was exactly as described. It is an easy walk to the Royal Mile and other attractions.
Timothy, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The place was very good. Very clean. Worth the money. For sure we will again get a room when we return in Edinburgh.
Rafael, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wrong address

The address in Hotels.com was incorrect. Since this a flat/room, there is no sign on the building indicating this was the correct place. Fortunately the phone number for the owner was correct and we got to where we needed to be. Other than that hiccup, the landlord was sweet, the room clean, location within walking distance of most of the sites.
Paul, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was great, very comfortable and had everything one would need. I’ll definitely consider staying there again should the possibility arise.
