You can't find a location that is more central to all the best sites tourists want to see most in Edinburgh. The flat is just as pictured and the scene on to the Royal Mile from the bay window is memorable in itself. It is right above a very cozy pub (highly recommend) but you don't get any noise from there, though some light street noise at night from the busy streets below may be noted. It is more than made up for by the very comfortable beds in both bedrooms. I slept great each our 3 nights there. Allan is a joy to work with and very helpful. This place added immeasurably to our family's Edinburgh experience!
