The flat is nice, although the host wasn't there she had arranged for someone to meet & greet us, the only problem we had was when we arrived the boiler had failed so we had no hot water or heating & although they tried hard to resolve it we had to spend the 1st night in a cold flat, the plumber arrived the 2nd morning with the part needed & fixed the boiler so the rest of our stay was warm & comfortable. The flat is in a prime location close to the Castle & Royal Mile with lovely views over Edinburgh & beyond, but be wary with lots of stairs up to the flat it's not for the faint hearted.
