Great location. Probably the best part of staying here is how close you are to Victoria Street, Cowsgate, and The Royal Mile. We walked to both Hollyrood and Edinburgh Castle among many other places. The hill the flat is off is steep, be prepared to walk either down a steep hill or up one depending on which way you come from. Very doable, I had two kids in a jogging stroller. House was clean, stayed warm, comfortable to relax in with two couches. Tv service is spotty.
Would happily stay again.
