Location, location, location!!
THIS is where you want to stay if you are planning on touring Old Town and a bit of New Town, Edinburgh.
Located directly off the royal mile with Waverly Station/Prince St just a short 10 minute walk in one direction and Edinburgh Castle a 10 minute walk in the other direction, it could not be centrally located...and, as a bonus, it is on a pedestrian section of royal mile...so, no heavy traffic.
In addition, the host was extremely responsive and accommodating to ALL of our questions, requests and needs.
NOTE: As mentioned in the description...you will have to climb two flights of very narrow stairs (there is NO lift)...so be prepared for that..but, most definitely, would not deter us from staying here again.
