We had a fantastic experience at Richard's place in Edinburgh. He was a fun and informative host. His apartment is new, and modern, yet on a quiet street. Richard was there to greet us when we arrived, helped us to the designated parking space, and even helped carry our luggage in! He took time to familiarize us with everything about the place and then inquired what items we would like for breakfasts and purchased them. It was centrally located to where we needed to be and one afternoon we walked from the Edinburgh Castle, down the Royal Mile, past the Parliament building, Arthurs seat and Holyrood to his apartment without breaking a sweat. The bed is large and very comfy. The bathroom was spacious, modern, and worked perfectly. Richard recommended great eateries and places to see and visit. We had full use of the shared spaces including the kitchen and living room and even cooked a few breakfasts while there. We so enjoyed the accommodations that after a brief stay in the highlands, we rebooked one more stay with Richard and cancelled our previous reservation at a Marriott Hotel. With such a great host, apartment and location, we had a wonderful stay and highly recommend Richard's apartment and would stay here again in a heartbeat.
