A great location in the old town of Edinburgh. No need for a car and the Royal Mile, Castle, Holyrood House and other historical sites are an easy, enjoyable walk. Caroline was very helpful and this rather unique apartment was very suitable. Having a second bathroom was a bonus. During our stay, the Festival was in full swing, and this included plenty of people outside the apartment, even into the early hours. Their noise was not an issue; however, it would help to have more visual privacy, and the addition of blinds, or similar, in the living area would improve matters. Previous reviews noted the noisy floorboards, and we too can confirm this ... perhaps part of the special character of the building?
