Great location, compact

Great communication from Derek. Heed the warning regarding steps! The living space very small, but if you’re out all day not an issue.

Right On Royal Mile

Super well located, clean, well equipped, at the mid-point on royal mile. Three rooms/ toilet and shower, kitchen and sitting room, and bedroom. On a “close”, which Americans might call a narrow street or alleyway. Flat was 3-4 floors up stairs but worth it for location.

Great location on the Royal Mile

Be prepared to hike up about 80 stairs to the flat. Thankfully the steps are both wide and deep, and with an excellent railing.The bedroom is huge, with plenty of room to lay out your bags. Our host Derek was very proactive and helpful. The kitchen is only stocked with minimal flatware and dishes, so don’t expect to do much meal preparation. The washer is great, and the drying rack is a beauty. Our clothes dried overnight.

The flat was in a good location, though noisy at night sometimes. Owner easy to communicate with.

The TV and WiFi didn’t work very well.
