Gills flat was beautiful. It was spacious, well decorated and very clean, and it is a block from the Scottish National History Museum and right next to the royal mile. there is a pub next door and also an Indian resturant that is fantastic (also next door) its in the middle of everything but also private and tucked away. Gill is an amazing host. She really goes the extra mile with all of the small touches she does to make you feel at home. If there was EVER a place i recommend someone to stay in Edinburgh, it is here.
