If this is your first visit to Edinburgh and you are mobile, this is a fabulous place to stay. Be warned that the access is via 36 narrow stone spiral steps. once you get inside, the flat is charming, comfortable, clean and quiet. there is a pub below, but the noise was subdued and it didn't bother me at all. Nights felt almost *too* quiet. The location just cannot be beat. hope down the stairs and you are right in the middle of the Royal Mile and all it has to offer.
The kitchen is very well stocked, and nicely fitted for preparing meals. The rain shower was a welcome luxury after a long day trekking the hills of Edinburgh. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and wish I could have stayed longer. HIGHLY recommended.
