Great historic neighborhood; wonderful views of the city! Large apartment. En suite bathroom needs a scrub down in shower. Napkins /paper towels would have been nice. Also, we stayed for 5 nights. More than 1.5 rolls of toilet paper would be nice. Restaurants within walking distance as is the royal mile. Great trip. There is no lift so make sure you are able to walk up the 4 floors necessary to reach the apartment.

Overall great stay, great apartment/flat! Larger than what I anticipated from the pictures. Only drawback was the steps, four flights after walking around Edinburgh every day took its toll.
