Great location just off of the Royal mile. Close to St. Giles church and Edinburgh castle and walkable to university of Edinburgh and the train station. We rode the hop on-hop off bus as there was a stop nearby and found it was an easy way to see the town and get around when we didn’t feel like walking.
The flat was clean and Anne’s support team was responsive. We liked the flat a lot.
Two things to keep in mind:
1. Last Call - Because this is close to restaurants and pubs, it can get a little noisy at closing time. Not a big deal to most folks. But, just prepared for it!
2. Walkability - while the location is great, Edinburgh is a fairly hilly city. This location is no exception. To get up to the royal mile from the flat, you need to walk up a fairly steep incline for about 50 yards. This may be a struggle for older folks.
Overall, we enjoyed the flat and found it to be a great value for a family of four relative to nearby hotels.
