Martin is a fabulous host. Check in is in the afternoon, but my flight got in earlier. Martin kindly offered me a place to store my luggage while I went for a walk and lunch, then meet me at the flat with my suitcase! The flat itself is beautiful and in a great location. The Waverley train station is at the end of the street, no more than a 3 minute walk. I whole heartedly recommend this place and will definitely check if it is free next time I visit Edinburgh!
