It was a HUGE treat to stay in such a historical location if you are a history nerd like me, and the painted beams were the jewel of the apartment.
It's hidden away so you avoid most of the noise of the Royal Mile, except the sound of some bagpipes and the occasional tour group that wanders into the courtyard under your window (I personally enjoyed listening to both).
The apartment is incredibly. Fiona has put a lot of care into making the apartment comfortable, and her communication was fantastic...I felt like I was well taken care of and could reach her for anything.
You can't beat the location as it's only an 8 minute walk from Waverly, right on the Royal Mile, close to pubs, museums, shopping, historical landmarks... seriously, you could practically crawl to the castle.
I really hope I can return to this flat someday!
