Caroline's apartment was the perfect rental to see all the sights of old town. Its location is excellent, just two short blocks from the middle of the Royal Mile, so that the castle, palace, new town, and Holyrood are all an easy walk. On arrival, we walked uphill from Waverly station but you may consider a cab if you have excessive luggage. Plenty of pubs/restaurants in the area, so there is a bit of outside noise in the late evenings (it didn't bother us).

The living area was clean and spacious and the bedrooms were comfortable. We didn't cook at all but the kitchen looked to have all essentials. One other thing to note is that due to the construction of the apartment, noise carries very easily between the two bedrooms and the living area (not a problem unless some of your party like to stay up late and make noise). But for our purposes the apartment was perfect.
