Clean, comfortable, convenient, and quiet. It’s an easy 10-minute walk to the royal palace and parliament at the bottom of the Royal Mile. It’s also close to the beautiful Holyrood park.
I had expected to chat with my flatmates, but they pretty much remained in their rooms behind closed doors. No one used the “common/living room,” which has a large but non-functioning TV. The room was used only for drying clothes; the same things hung on a drying rack during my entire 2-1/2 week stay.
So, if you want to be left alone, this is the place for you. If you’re looking for a wee bit of companionship or some guidance regarding food stores and local pubs, look elsewhere. Cheers .
