Charming and full of character
The apartment was stunning. Charming, cozy, and very clean. Excellent location, a few steps from the Royal Mile and main attractions in Old town. Lovely stay.

6/10 Good

First impressions are key and ours was terrible. We walked in the lobby area to find bags of dirty laundry and boxes of produce in the way. We could not even get by with our luggage. This area became more congested with more dirty laundry each day it was disgusting. It is unfortunate as the apartment was quite nice and clean.

Lovely place to stay
Really lovely space & location. Even though the festival was in mid flow, the road is relatively quiet and we were not disturbed. No microwave & mezzanine bed a little warm in summer, but otherwise perfect!

Awesome location. Close to dozens of good restaurants and bars. Enjoyed the size of the room because everyone had their own space to relax and unwind. The area felt very secure and easy walking distance from most inner city attractions. I will use Linton again on our next Edinburgh vacation

Wonderful location! Beautiful, clean and relaxing!
We selected this place because it looked different/interesting compared to trying to get "just another hotel". It was more like a rented apartment, with all of those amenities (washer/dryer, kitchenette, etc), which was amazing! I don't think the unit we got was what was in the photos, but it makes sense as it's a building of ~10 units that you are assigned from. Getting into the unit couldn't have been easier - it was secure but completely self-serve. It was also amazing that there is secure storage for luggage if you arrive or stay later than check in/out times.

Such a good find. You stay right off the royal mile and you have so much space. The property communicated up to the minute of our check in with the access information. So easy. Clean and we would definitely recommend this to everyone.

10/10 Exceptional

Wow…couldn’t have been nicer. We stayed in apt 8 on the top floor & it looked just like it did in the pictures. Located steps from the Royal mile at about the mid point between Holyrod and Edinburgh castle. About a 10-12 minute walk from Waverly train station. Apartment had all of the amenities you could need including washer/dryer combo. Loved freedom of keyless entry. Be aware that there are many steps at this facility but you will find that steps are everywhere in Old town of Edinburgh. Bedroom is in loft up narrow staircase but there are handrails. We opted to leave suitcases in living area rather trying to bring upstairs. There are many places to eat in the area as well as Mini grocery & Pharmacy near by. Be sure to eat at least once at Maskar Gormet Mash. It’s about an 8 minute walk but so worth it!

Charming apartment oozing with character and style
We had a long weekend here in December and the apartment was beautiful, full of character, clean & comfy. Close enough to be a minutes walk from the center, but far enough away to not have any noise from the main drag. Would definitely stay again.

A perfect location, steps from the Mile and 5 min walk to the train station (clean, safe area). Loved the ability to wash some clothes, but had to pick up detergent at the store. Also, the sound insulation between floors is lacking.
