"We had a wonderful stay! The location is absolutely the best in Edinburgh—right in the heart of everything and incredibly convenient for exploring the city. The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was fantastic and very responsive throughout our stay. He even graciously allowed us to check in early, which was greatly appreciated. We also accidentally left our AirPods behind, and he went above and beyond by mailing them back to us. We highly recommend this...
