James was a very kind and generous host and did everything he could to help us out. He graciously set up the extra bed, per our request, and allowed us to use the washing machine. Everything we needed was ready and available for us, and the pictures show exactly what the flat looks like. The flat was a very easy bus ride from the city centre...the fare is £1.70 per ride (you can pay on the bus with change). We took the #11 bus, which seemed to come frequently at night and in the morning, and the stop was only a couple of blocks away from the flat. Overall, we had a great stay in Edinburgh and would recommend James' flat.
