Allan's place was a dream to stay in. The location is simply unbeatable as it is directly on the Royal Mile. All of the photos were 100% accurate and the flat was actually larger than I expected.
Unfortunately, I did not have the pleasure of meeting Allan as he was out of town but he was very quick to respond to every question I had leading up to the stay and during. He even provided a few local snacks as a welcome - which was a nice surprise!
I was there during the week so there wasn't too much outside noise that I could hear until the last night (Friday). You can hear some people milling about outside but it didn't disturb us.
The beds were very comfortable too. The pillows were plush and the comforter was much warmer than I expected. If I have the pleasure of visiting Edinburgh again, I will definitely stay at Allan's place.
