This home is in an excellent location. It is located 2 blocks from the Royal Mile. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. You can also get an Uber or taxi very quickly if you don't want to walk up the steep hill to the castle like I did. lol. We also easily walked to and from the train station. It took about 10 minutes. The apartment is on the ground floor and you only have to walk up one small flight of stairs to get into the apartment. Check in instructions were clear and well documented with pictures. The host provided excellent communication and some really thoughtful extra touches. It was clean and comfortable. The beds are little bit more on the firm side than I like, but the linens and pillows provided were very comfortable.
