Sue's place is a large room at the front of her home, situated in a wonderful crescent. Within easy walking distance of not just Haymarket with its station, coffee places and pubs, or West End with its fancy restaurants, but even to the Royal Mile and Old Town. The tram is a few minutes walk away and for (currently £1.70) it will take you all the way to York Place for shopping, or St Andrew's Square for a short walk to Waverley station or the Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle.
We liked Sue's place, with its double bed for me and single bed for my daughter and plenty of space. It was clean and tidy and we very much appreciated the fridge and the offer of real milk for my tea in the morning - I can't stand the normal UHT stuff hotels give you. Sue allows you to leave your luggage after the 10am check out, which was great for us today as it meant we could catch a tram to St Andrew's Square to see the Royal Mile, before grabbing some lunch, strolling back to collect the luggage and hope on the airport bound tram (£6) from Haymarket.
