Kelly's flat is located close to everything you want to see and easy to get a cab or take the city bus to get to other spots. Her stylish and comfortable place was so enjoyable and relaxing after a long day of exploring. There are grocery markets and take out restaurants near by for convenience as well. We could get everywhere by foot or the bus line was near by. I do suggest familiarizing yourself with the Lothian bus lines if you do not have a car. You can take a train from Waverly Station near by to do trips outside Edinburgh as well. Bring walking/hiking shoes because you will walk miles per day and on old cobblestone streets many times. Arthur's Seat was much ore than we expected or planned for. Wonderful time and so much to do and see!
