Allan's apartment was perfect for our party of four. It's right on the Royal Mile in the historic, cobblestoned Old Town which is a must see for first time tourists. It's walkable from most places of import - New Town, Arthur's Seat, Edinburgh Castle and the starting points for all the tours we did. If you're arriving by train, it's a few minutes walk from Waverly station. Apartment interiors are as advertised - spacious, comfortable, clean and well appointed. Loved the bay window. Allan's very friendly, was prompt with replies and gave very detailed instructions for getting to the apartment, which was very helpful. Highly recommended. If you've time for a wander, we discovered and fell in love with Mary's Milk Bar near Grassmarket - a great little place with gelato, ice cream and the most memorable hot chocolate.
