Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile
The staff is friendly & the location was great! It was so central and you can’t literally walk everywhere but if you are tired taking an uber/taxi is pretty cheap. The only thing I would recommend is that they update a few amenities like adding shampoo/ conditioner. Other than that I loved my stay ...
