Charming Old Town Apt Just 10 Steps from the Royal Mile

Tucked away in the heart of Edinburgh’s historic Old Town, this cozy one-bedroom apartment offers unbeatable access to the city’s most iconic sights. Located just 10 steps from the legendary Royal Mile and only a 3-minute walk from Waverley Station, it’s the perfect base for exploring everything Edinburgh has to offer—whether you're here for history, culture, or a weekend getaway.

The flat, quietly situated on the lower ground level, is comfortable and well-equipped—ideal for solo travelers or couples. I'm continuously making thoughtful improvements to enhance the space, and updated photos will reflect those soon.

Come stay and experience the charm of Edinburgh from a truly central and inviting spot.

The location is fantastic--steps from the Royal Mile and 3 Cafes within 50 yards. BUT the apartment is a weird and dark converted basement. To get to it you walk down concrete steps and past oily bikes and a discarded radiator and a wooden pallet leaning against the wall. Not pretty. It's a bedroom with a kitchen and bathroom attached. Little light. No view at all. The integration between vrbo and Travelocity is USELESS and you may or may not be able to actually get the instructions to get into the apartment. Hopelessly inconvenient tech by Travelocity. The door code was given on a Dropbox document accessed from a temporary vrbo account accessed by a dodgy Travelocity booking link. Definitely not good.
