Clare's place is in a great location, about a ten minute walk from the Royal Mile and about a 3-4 minute walk to the Elephant House Cafe. There's plenty of cafes nearby, and a pharmacy and post office are conveniently across the street. The apartment is well stocked, stylishly decorated, and very comfortable. The many umbrellas available were a nice touch and a welcome surprise. Only con really is that the apartment is on the third floor (second floor in UK) and there's no elevator, so if steps are difficult for someone it may not be the best option. Overall awesome place, I'd love to stay here again when I return to Edinburgh.
