    Within walking distance of Royal Mile and other sights we wanted to visit. Host was very gracious and gave us suggestions for parking. We booked this at the last minute due to a schedule change with another property.

    A last minute cancellation at another accommodation required me to book a new stay quickly. Braveheart came to the rescue. The property manager quickly rectified an issue with internet reception which was much appreciated.
