Overall the flat works for a city break and a brilliant location to walk to all the main Edinburgh attractions, but would recommend for adults or families with older children.
We were 3 adults and two children, 5 & 1 and it was not the right space for us. The shower room is tiny, the size of a small downstairs loo, so navigating that with the kids was stressful for us. There is thought gone into some great space saving and the decor is lovely.
If you are driving we used Thistle Carpark.
