We got great value for our money with an excellent apartment in a central location. The beds were super comfy and the apartment had everything we needed, from a TV to a fully equipped kitchen. The staff, especially Dayna, were extremely helpful and accommodating throughout our stay.
Hotel breakfast could use improvement, maybe offering a wider variety of options.

The apartment at West Bow, Old Town was spotlessly clean and perfectly situated in the heart of the historic district. We appreciated the host's flexibility in allowing us to store our luggage after check-out time due to our late flight. the location was superb, with an abundance of restaurants and bars just steps away. Dayna, the host, was extremely helpful throughout our stay, providing clear instructions for check-in and offering assistance with any queries. We highly recommend this property for an enjoyable stay in this amazing location. Cons: Almost perfect! 👌.

The 2-bedroom apartment at The West Bow, Old Town in Edinburgh was simply amazing! It had all the comfort and convenience I needed for a pleasant stay. The living room with a flat-screen TV was cozy, and the fully equipped kitchen had everything I needed to prepare my own meals. The apartment's layout was perfect for hanging out with friends or family.
Honestly, the only thing I didn't love about the apartment was the stovetop. It wasn't my personal favorite, but I can see how others might still find it perfectly functional.

Located in the heart of the historic Old Town, surrounded by excellent cafes and restaurants. the apartments are well equipped, clean and comfortable. the heated towel rail is a nice touch and there is a convenient automatic light. Dayna, the host, is extremely helpful and accommodating.
The spiral staircase to the first floor can be challenging for some guests with heavy luggage.

The location was mind-blowing, with all attractions on our doorstep. The apartment was super spacious and fully equipped with everything we needed, including wi-fi, an electric kettle, and cookware. It was a jaw-dropping level of cleanliness, and the flat-screen TV added to the overall comfort. Moreover, the host was incredibly accommodating, allowing us to leave our bags after check-out. No pets allowed, and no smoking on-site. Totally recommended!

The location of the hotel was great, with plenty of attractions and restaurants within walking distance. We were able to explore the city easily and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of the area. the apartment was also warm and clean, with comfortable beds and a well-equipped kitchen.
There were some negatives to our stay. the shower was quite frustrating to use as it constantly changed temperature and the pressure was not very good.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The location was right in the middle of the city, with lots of great cafes and restaurants nearby. It was so convenient for sightseeing. The apartment was well equipped, comfortable, and very clean. They even provided hand wash and paper kitchen roll, which was a nice touch. The huge heated towel rail was perfect for all our towels.
Can honestly say there wasn't anything not to like.
