    The free WiFi was a blessing, considering the lack of entertainment in the apartment. And oh, the washing machine saved me from bringing home a suitcase full of dirty clothes. How thrilling.

    Who needs city views when you can have noisy bars and creaky doors to enjoy? Just the perfect ambiance for a relaxing stay.

    Quiet atmosphere, stunning location adjacent to Royal Mile, and restaurants. Particularly good bathroom with a walk-in shower. Location in the heart of the city...

    Bad free Wi-Fi.

    The apartment is beautifully furnished with a cozy seating area, making it perfect for relaxation and unwinding after a day of exploring. As a vegetarian/vegan, the kitchen with a dishwasher and microwave was a lifesaver for preparing our plant-based meals.

    Personally, I found the tile/marble floor a bit cold underfoot. However, I understand that some people may enjoy the elegant and stylish touch it adds to the apartment.

    Great views of the castle from here. And this place is just so convenient, with tons of restaurants, bars, and attractions nearby like Royal Mile and the Grassmarket. 😉

    Castle Apartment 1 provided a cozy and warm environment, perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the city in the rain. the well-equipped kitchen allowed us to cook our own meals, and the comfortable bedroom provided a great night's sleep. the sofa bed, although comfortable for one person, might be a bit of a squeeze for two. But the highlight was the fantastic view of the castle from the main living/dining room. the location was ideal, with everything within walking distance. the host also left coffee, tea, and breakfast items, a lovely touch. I would highly recommend this property to friends and family.

    Great location, within walking distance to everything. Cosy and warm apartment, perfect for cold winter days. - Well-equipped kitchen for cooking meals.

    The sofa bed was uncomfortable and squeaky. Inconsistent water temperature in the shower.

    The central location was mind-blowing, with everything in walking distance. The kitchen was super well-equipped, allowing us to cook. The apartment was cosy and warm after a day out in the rain. The shower was jaw-droppingly good, and the bedroom was super comfortable. The sofa bed was comfortable for one, but may have been a squeeze for two. The view of the castle was amazing, and the staff kept us up to date with instructions. an absolutely fantastic stay with all the necessities like free wifi, electric kettle, cookware, and a flat-screen TV. No pets were allowed, and there was no smoking on site. I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family!

    Managed to experience the thrill of a dial-up connection with the "free WiFi" and discovered a new spin cycle with the washing machine. The city views were great, especially when I squinted really hard.

    Oh, how I missed the joy of lukewarm, unreliable showers and a dusty shampoo prison. Couldn't be happier that I had to bring my own towel.
