Kelly's flat is an absolute gem, and as a host, she personally is a treasure. Staying at her flat was my first experience with AirBNB, and I didn't realise how spoilt that made me until after I left! I've never felt so at home away from home; the flat itself is sparkling clean, incredibly cosy, with thoughtful, considered touches and an exceptionally clever use of space, with a dreamy bed, a lovely, comfy sofa to read from, and a kitchen table overlooking the private gardens across the way. Her flat is right in the centre of things, but the flat itself is a quiet little oasis, perfect for me to have gotten some much needed rest and relaxation and work done whilst in the city.
Beyond that, Kelly was there herself to greet me and to offer helpful tips about how to get around the city and what to explore, see, and do here. She was so generous with her time that, upon seeing I was exhausted and famished when I arrived, even ran out to get some takeaway for me as I'd just come off a transatlantic flight, helped me with my luggage (there is one short flight of steps up to the apartment), and graciously allowed me to check out at 3PM so I wouldn't be wandering the city aimlessly for hours with my bags. I can't possibly say enough wonderful things about her; my only disappointment was that I wish I knew I'd have fallen in love with Edinburgh from the start so I could have stayed at Kell's Place even longer. Infinite thanks for a wonderful, extraordinary experience.
