Great views. Perfect location. Gracious host. The apartment is perfect for a couple. When we arrived our host walked us to the apartment and showed us how things worked. We were walked to the best local pub and told a bit of history about the historic building where we were staying. We found a well appointed kitchenette with a fresh bag of coffee and chocolates provided by the host. We made coffee, toast and even bacon and eggs most mornings. The neighborhood is at the heart of it all. The Castle, Royal Mile, Grasslands, National Gallery, Arthur Seat, Camera Obscura, St. Giles Cathedral, Holyrood Palace and so much more all nearby. It’s a great spot for those who like to not worry about taxis and cars. Edinburgh is really just at your doorstep. We even walked to Leith as it was only a few kilometers to the coast. We will be back.
