Katie's place is bright, spacious and clean and very well appointed with a warming fireplace and large bathroom with a tub/shower combo; we vacationed in December. Her flat is ideally located on the Royal Mile in the heart of Old Town within walking distance of the Castle, historic sites, numerous cafes and bars, shopping, Victoria Street, New Town, and the Christmas markets/eateries. Her flat is 2 stories and situated on the 3rd floor. It is very secure. You need to be able to carry your luggage up a spiral staircase as there is no lift. Windows open for fresh air. Best to play some type of white noise over night because tourists and service vehicles run all night in this busy area. Easy to walk from King's Cross to her flat. No car necessary. We enjoyed her flat and our stay; would visit again.
