    I had an incredible stay at Old Town 163 in Edinburgh. the location couldn't have been better - just a stone's throw away from the castle and close to all the tourist activities. the accommodation was clean and comfortable, and I particularly loved the well-equipped kitchen. the view from the apartment across the city to the hills was breathtaking. Mary, our host, was amazing. She provided clear instructions, offered helpful advice, and even left us tea, coffee, sugar.

    I highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again. Cons: Nothing could have been better!

    The apartment was absolutely lovely! It had a cozy and homely feel, with stylish decor and comfortable furniture. I instantly felt relaxed and at ease as soon as I walked in. I really enjoyed having a fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and microwave. It made cooking and preparing meals so convenient and hassle-free. The flat-screen TV with cable channels was a nice touch. It was great to have some entertainment options after a long day of exploring the city. Having two bedrooms was perfect for my stay. It provided plenty of space for me and my friends, allowing us to have our own privacy and relaxation. The washing machine in the apartment was a lifesaver. It saved me from having to pack a ton of clothes and made doing laundry a breeze.

    Personally, I found the stovetop a little bit outdated. However, I understand that others might still find it perfectly functional and not mind it at all.

    The location of the accommodation was fantastic, being very close to the castle and within easy reach of tourist activities. the view across the city to the hills was also a highlight. The accommodation itself was clean, comfortable, and had a well-equipped kitchen, which was perfect for our self-catering needs.

    We felt very welcome, with no complaints at all.

    The location was mind-blowing, close to everything and with a jaw-dropping view of the city. The accommodation was super clean, stylish, and comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped and we enjoyed the self-catering option. The host was incredibly helpful and even provided little treats for us. This was the best place we've ever stayed in and we highly recommend it.

    My stay at Old Town 163 was absolutely amazing. The location was perfect, right next to the castle and in the heart of the old town. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and had all the necessary amenities. The kitchen was well-equipped, which was great for our self-catering needs. The view from the apartment across the city to the hills was breathtaking.

    The only minor inconvenience was the lack of a mirror with good lighting. As a group of girls, we had to use tiny mirrors in the living room windows for doing our makeup.

    City Views: The apartment was perfect, offering stunning city views that made me feel like I was on top of the world. It was like having my own personal bird's eye view of the bustling Old Town below. It was truly breathtaking.

    Noisy Streets: Some nights, the narrow alleys of the Old Town district could get a bit noisy, but it was nothing my earplugs couldn't handle.

    The apartment had everything I needed for a comfortable stay, including a fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and microwave. The flat-screen TV with cable channels was a great source of entertainment during my downtime. Having 2 bedrooms in the apartment provided ample space for me and my companions. I really appreciated having a washing machine in the apartment, making it convenient to do laundry during my stay. The stovetop in the kitchen was a nice bonus, allowing me to cook meals easily.

    Personally, I found the shower in one of the bathrooms to be a bit small, but that's just my personal opinion.

    Had an amazing Christmas stay in the heart of the city! the location was perfect, right next to the castle and in the middle of all the tourist attractions. the accommodation was clean and cozy, with comfortable beds that made us feel right at home. the kitchen had everything we needed for a self-catering stay and the view from the apartment was breathtaking, overlooking the city and the hills. Plus, the friendly host provided all the essential amenities to make our stay even better.

    Only one minor issue for us was the lack of a well-lit mirror. As a group of girls, it would have been great to have a mirror with good lighting for doing our makeup.

    The location of the accommodation is perfect, with easy access to various attractions and amenities. It's just a short walk from the train station and close to Edinburgh Castle, providing convenience for sightseeing and dining options. the flat offers comfortable beds, clean rooms, and well, stocked facilities, making it feel like a home away from home. the early check, in option and helpful communication from the host were also greatly appreciated.

    The lack of a well, lit mirror in the flat could be inconvenient for those who need good lighting for makeup application.
