This was a GREAT location for our family to spend a couple of days exploring Edinburgh! Parking was close and easy to find, and the flat provided a good amount of space for us to relax during our stay. The neighborhood is a nice urban neighborhood and I felt completely comfortable with my kids walking though the neighborhood after dark. It was a VERY close walk to the Royal Mile and other tourist attractions in the City Centre, about 10-15 minutes depending on the route you took. Everything we needed to fix meals was available in the kitchen and easy to use.
