I would highly recommend Melanie's place for a visit to Edinburgh if you want to be in the middle of all the action! It was a perfect location on the Royal Mile down the street from the Edinburgh Castle and close proximity to all the restaurants and bars you can imagine. Surprisingly the noise was not an issue at all, which was really nice.
Melanie is an awesome host as well. The place was very clean and had all the accommodations we needed. She even had recommendations for things to see and do during our stay.
We will be recommending her place to all friends traveling to the Edinburgh area.
