Ivys apartment was very clean and well appointed with everything you could need and more. From shower gel and shampoo supplies in the bathroom to shortbread, porridge and cereal supplied in the kitchen - Ivy went above and beyond! The apartment is up a lot of steps if you go the most direct way, but you can walk around via the road and enter the Lane from the Royal Mile Rd, so you only walk down a few steps. The location is very close to the Royal Mile Rd, but you do t get any noise from the restaurants and passers-by there. However you are likely to get some noisy groups using the lane way in the wee small hours.. So close to so many fabulous restaurants and attractions - and also walking distance to a Local Sainsbury’s. We were very happy with our accommodation and would be very happy to stay here again. The location, facilities and fabulous shower water pressure were much appreciated.
