I found my stay at Javed's very rewarding. This is ideal for the person who wants to be in the city but closer to nature and larger grocery stores (such as Aldi) and away from all the tourists and noise. The transportation in Edinburgh is very efficient and there is a bus directly from the airport to Javed's neighborhood. There is a small park and castle a short walk away, perfect for jogging. Arthur's seat, which is a large hill with a great view of the city, is just a hike away. Javed and his family are also very kind and informative. The room that I was in is small, but suitable for my needs. The wifi can be on and off sometimes, but I'd say it's 85% reliable. Overall, I would definitely come back.
