If you want to be in the center of all the action on The Royal Mile (High Street) in Edinburgh, then this flat is for you. The front windows of the living room look down right on The Royal Mile. They all open and let in a beautiful breeze. You literally sit on top of dozens of restaurants, pubs, and shops. ( just downstairs and three shops over to the right is The Royal MacGregor, great for full Scottish Breakfast and delicious dinners at reasonable prices). If you walk out your door and turn left, you walk past the St. Giles Cathedral (beautiful), the best walking Ghost Tours in town which leave from there, the Real Mary King's Close, the Whiskey Experience, and finally, the crown jewel, Edinburgh Castle. If you step out of the flat and walk right, there's a Starbuck's on the corner, countless shops, and then, at the end of The Royal Mile, Holyrood Palace, which is gorgeous, with the ruins of a stunning Abbey well worth exploring, and beautiful gardens you can walk through. You can see and hear various street performers throughout the day right from your window.

The flat is very nice. It's in a very old building with a winding staircase like a turret leading up to the flat. It has old world charm. Michael has redone the rooms to a high standard. The beds are very comfortable. The master is a good size and is en-suite with plenty of storage. The master bath is small, with a shower. The bed is very comfortable and large. The other two bedrooms are very small, but functional and comfortable. They share a very nice, modern bathroom with shower/tub combo. All rooms have windows that open. The kitchen is well equipped.

The two smaller bedrooms are way in the back, away from the street noise. The master is closer to the front, but there is a door you can close that eliminates most of the noise from the street. Again, if you want to be in the thick of the action, this is a very good choice for you. Michael's communications were timely and his representative met us there at the pre-arranged time with keys and great information. Thanks.
