Argyl - Abbey Gate Studios near Holyrood

Home away from home.

It needed a decent size clothes airer instead of the very small one they had.

Modern.

The entrance with the codes was a bit of a nuisance. But I understand it is also a safe option.

I was messaged by the host before our trip with the access codes.

There is a washer slash dryer in the unit which would have been great to use. They had two complimentary soaps for the dish washer but none for the clothes and I couldn’t find single use soaps at the store.

Proximity to The Royal Mile and Holyrood Palace. We liked having the kitchen and laundry.

The room we were given was the storefront unit which we entered directly from the street. Unfortunately it was on a very noisy corner with pedestrian and vehicle traffic going by at all hours of the day and night making it difficult to sleep. On two nights of our 4 night stay we had people from the bar next door outside on our doorstep smoking and talking. The double bed was shoved against a wall and was not comfortable for two people.
