You WANT to stay here! The location couldn't be more perfect (on the Royal Mile but super easy to walk to and not too much uphill from Waverley Train Station). DL is quickly responsive and a very nice host to interact with. The room is a great size for one person and very charming, only up on the second floor and the views are right out onto the Royal Mile. All in all, I felt like i hit the jackpot finding this place. You will too.
PS, if you are there in the winter and you are asked if you want the hot water bottle, say YES!
