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 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.
