Yvonne was very communicative, and even sent us a coupon for a local cafe. Her place is very close to Holyrood Palace and the start of the Royal Mile. My 70yr old mother found it easy to walk to. It's a great location. Everything you need is nearby within walking g distance. If you want to take cab from Waverly Station, it's about 7-8 pounds. Thanks so much Yvonne! We only wish we could have stayed longer!
