    It had great character, the stone and wood beams. And it was just off the Royal Mile by a few feet, so it was quiet, but very convenient.

    The location was fantastic - we couldn't have chosen a better spot! The room was immaculately clean, and the hosts went out of their way to make sure we understood the check in instructions. I would highly recommend this property and would stay...
