The apartment is welcoming and comfortable, and just as described. The location is just fantastic, being literally steps away from the castle entrance, and the Royal Mile, and very close to Grassmarket, with great choices of places to eat. We had breakfast at Deacon Brodie’s cafe a short walk down the Royal Mile, good choices of food and reasonable prices, and also at a patisserie near Grassmarket, both worth a visit. We found loads to explore on foot, and found our way by bus ( 11, 22, ) to Ocean Terminal in Leith where we spent a wonderful few hours aboard the Royal Yacht Britannia.
We appreciated Olive’s prompt communications, the thoughtful gestures of flowers and biscuits, and her care in allowing us to drop off our luggage before the official check in time. We’d love to stay at Olive’s place again.
