Great location for sightseeing! About a block away from Holyrood Palace and near the lower end of the Royal Mile. Super convenient. Host was responsive to my questions about the flat both before and after arrival. Flat has everything you need!! An added bonus was the washer/dryer!! As far as the decor, it is a bit dated, could use a refresh. Also the shower was a hassle. It only worked on the “econ” setting which had lousy water pressure. As an American, not sure if that is typical here, but we didn’t experience that in our other Scottish airbnb. Check in was simple with a lockbox and the flat was very quiet, which was nice. The only other negative was the entryway which is dark and gloomy, even mid day. Was hard to see the keyhole. Couldn’t find a light switch but it must be automatic because it was on later at night. Flat is very secure, the entry to the building locks as well as the flat door, which has a deadbolt. If you want convenience and a solid flat with all the necessities this is a good option, but if you want something more “upscale”this might not work for you. However for the price, this flat has all the basics and more and I would recommend it. Ps don’t count on early luggage drop off (before check in) We had to pay 30 pounds to store luggage at the rail station….this was the only airbnb that did not allow for this on our trip.
