Hervorragende Unterkunft im 4. Stock! Sehr sauber, zentral gelegen und ein herrschaftliches Flair wie im Schloss. Der Self-Check-in war dank der detaillierten Anleitung kinderleicht. Perfekter Ausgangspunkt, um die Sehenswürdigkeiten und die nette Atmosphäre der Stadt zu genießen. Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt bei bestem Wetter. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Der Weg in die Unterkunft führt über eine anstrengende Treppe. Mit viel Gepäck oder einem Kinderwagen ist dies kaum zu bewältigen. Auch für Senioren oder Personen mit Knieproblemen ist der Zugang ungeeignet und sehr beschwerlich.

Location was very good and staff (via email) was very nice and helpful. Clean and nice room.

The staircase to room was quite intresting but there is nothing that can be done for it. Nothing to complaint for the room itself.

Fabulous location on the Royal Mile. Quirky and historical property. Very clean. Bed comfortable and we slept very well. We managed to climb the long spiral stone staircase to access the property but someone with mobility problems would not manage as there was no handrail ( authentic to the time it was built !)

Nothing.

I highly recommend this place. It's warm, clean, and cozy. It's right in the center, with all the sights within a 5-minute walk. The apartments are excellent, and the hosts are fantastic. Thank you.

"Bed was comfortable, you can cook your own meal and excellent location. Just pay attention with the spiral STAIRS!!!!"

Excellent location!

As advertised, for those with disabilities or difficulty mobility the 4th floor isn’t ideal. I didn’t pay attention when I booked, and my mom had to climb the stairs which was really difficult as her age and pain in the knees.

Struttura molto centrale (proprio sul Royal Mile), con tutto il necessario. Camera molto spaziosa.

In generale non molto curato e mobili un po’ datati. Sarebbe utile una ventola nel bagno, che non è finestrato.
