The apartment has all that you need and the location is wonderful. It is on the Royal Mile, but not in the middle of the most tourist-packed area. There are small inviting museums just a few doors down, and little surprises to be found as you wander around and look through the archways into closes and wynds. There is a lovely pastry shop next door and a take-out restaurant with delicious fish and chips downstairs. The rest of Edinburgh is just a walk away.
