Mark is a very courteous host, gracious and pleasant to talk to. Although we came to Edinburgh in January, he made sure we stayed warm: in addition to the radiator there's an absolutely wonderful fireplace in the room and Mark always made sure we had enough coal to make a fire. The location of his place could hardly be better and getting to it from the airport following his directions was easy. We very soon felt at home and at ease at his place. Mark was also flexible with the check-out time, for which I am grateful.
