Stay with Alan! From start to end the experience was perfect. Alan is warm and kind, makes you feel at home and goes above and beyond to make sure that you have a great time in Edinburgh at his home and seeing the sites. The accommodation itself is charming, a relaxing apartment on the side of the river. You feel like you're staying in a country bnb. It has everything you could possibly need - comfortable bedding, warm shower, coffee machine, so many chocolates and gummy bears and of course speedy internet. Alan's apartment would be my first choice of accommodation if I returned to Edinburgh and I would tell any friend visiting Edinburgh to stay with Alan. Thanks Alan!
