Spacious Old Town Flat Near Castle and Royal Mile

"The apartment was in a great location and easily walkable to The Royal Mile and other attractions. It was also very spacious! Most places we've stayed in Europe are very small, so I was impressed at the size of the apartment. Two full bedrooms, a large kitchen, and a nicely sized living room. Plus, communication with Jeff was seamless, and he was always available if we had questions. We'd definitely stay again!"
