    We had a perfect 10/10 stay in Edinburgh very close to Old Town, and the Royal Mile, National Museum and Festival Theatre. Its very central location was convenient to Royal Mile.

    We had a fantastic stay at the Turtle Apartment. the location was excellent, just a short 5-minute walk to the main shops, famous attractions like Edinburgh Castle, and interesting sites like Camera Obscura & Mary King's Close. We found plenty of great places to eat nearby. The apartment itself was clean and well-maintained, and we appreciated that the manager, Michelle, was always available and easy to contact. Cons: Nothing at all! 😊.

    The apartment's location was fantastic, with easy access to the Royal Mile, Old Town, and New Town. It was surrounded by plenty of restaurants, bars, and shops. the apartment was clean and had modern decor.

    The steep and slippery steps leading to the apartment could be difficult to navigate, especially with heavy luggage, and could be a challenge for individuals with mobility issues.

    The apartment had 3 cozy bedrooms, perfect for a group of friends or families. The fully equipped kitchen was a lifesaver, especially with the dishwasher and washing machine. I loved having a flat-screen TV to relax in front of after a long day of exploring.

    Personally, I found the washing machine a bit noisy, but others might not mind it.

    Great location, just a short walk to the main attractions and plenty of good places to eat nearby. the apartment was clean and well-appointed, with three spacious bedrooms and two separate bathrooms. the building manager was friendly and always available to contact. Plus, being able to leave our luggage before check-in and after check-out was a bonus.

    The steps down to the apartment were quite steep and could be difficult for guests with mobility issues or heavy luggage. the lack of natural light in the public area made it feel a bit dark.

    The apartment was fitted with a fully equipped kitchen that provided all the necessary appliances. I felt like a master chef in that kitchen, whipping up meals with ease and efficiency. It was like having Gordon Ramsay's kitchen at my disposal.

    Shower leaked occasionally.

    The value for money was great as the apartment was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable for 4 people. The location was excellent, with easy access to major city attractions and plenty of dining options. The staff, especially the manager Michelle, were always available and accommodating.

    One thing that could make the morning meal better would be to have more variety in the breakfast options.

    Towels were generously provided, perfect for pretending I'm a glamorous movie star while drying off.

    Well, it's such a shame that they didn't include a red carpet for me to strut down upon arrival. How disappointing!
