While this flat is very conveniently located to both Edinburgh Waverly and the Royal Mile, it was not the most ideal situation. Due to its proximity to the Royal Mile, it was very noisy at night. The host did take steps to prevent this by adding double windows, but the noise level was still high in the flat. Add to this mold in the bathroom and extremely uncomfortable beds, and our stay was not what we expected. There were no instructions on where things were/how things worked in the flat. Also, only one roll of toilet paper (that we could find) in the entire place, with four women. It really is unfortunate, because you can't beat the location, but the amenities were just not up to snuff. I hesitate to say this, because it's Edinburgh which is basically one big staircase, but the flat was also up three flights of stairs, so beware if you have trouble with stairs.
