What an amazing find! Igor’s place is absolutely stunning, and really great if you want something out of the ordinary. It’s very central, but still incredibly peaceful – when you enter it feels like a haven with tatami floors, plants and artwork everywhere and great books to peruse.
My room had a beautiful view of a church and garden opposite, and was super clean and tidy. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you would need to cook – including ingredients for a sumptuous breakfast (and nice toppings like coconut shavings, dried fruits, etc). The various shampoos/conditioners/shower gels are all ethical brands, which was a nice touch.
I’m sad I didn’t get to meet Igor, but his friend welcomed me and made me feel at home straight away. I also liaised with Igor over the app during my stay, and he was always very quick to respond.
Will definitely be staying here again when I next go to Edinburgh.
