Uwe met us at the door before the scheduled check in time and helped us carry our bags along the lavender lined walkway up to the apartment. The apartment is in a good location at the top of Calton Hill Road. It has beautiful views from all windows and good access to the Royal Mile and New Town.

One should know that there is a flight of stairs to the front door from the road and two flights inside to the apartment.

There is no parking on Calton Hill Road but there is free parking nearby on Waterloo Place between 6:30 p.m. and 8:30 a.m. Parking anywhere in Edinburgh between 8:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. is challenging and expensive.
