Carols apartment was really nice and accessible. We took a cab from the waverly station to her place due to our luggage, but if you aren't carrying many bags, it's a walkable distance! The place was nicely done up and very clean! Also, if u walk all the way up the same street you'll get to Edinburgh castle. Very close to other sights too! :) the only thing was that it is located right next to a small fish and chips establishment, so u might get a waft of fish and chips from your room every now and then!! Other than that, we truly enjoyed our stay!
