This a good, clean, high-value apartment at the bottom of the Royal Mile in Edinburgh. It was IKEA stylish and efficient and had most of what we needed for three days including free laundry. It is a fourth floor walk-up. With the windows closed, it would have probably been quiet. We hit some hot summer days, however, so we had a lot of street noise. On balance, we would recommend this a small, but cost effective, place to stay in a very central location. The Royal Mile is touristy with too much tartan tat, but this apartment offered lovely views of Carlton Hill, Arthur's Seat, and the ocean. We had no interaction with the owner, just messages with a management company. That worked fine.
