We had a great time at Gary's place im Leith in Edingburgh. Gary really makes you feel super welcome but in a relaxed and non-intrusive way.
Your room itself includes a small wardrobe and two bedside tables. You can use the kitchen and living room just as you need it and get some space in the fridge for your stuff. The bathroom is quite big and everything works very well.
Gary gives you helpful information on what to do depending on the length of your stay.
The bus connection to the town (either main station or main attraction area) is quite good. If you use the bus regularly you can just touch any card/Google Pay in the bus and the day after it charges you the amount for the cheapest possible fare of the day before (capped at £4,40 a day or £20 a week). That is called TapTapCap and you don't need to buy any ticket for that.
In total we can only fully recommend to stay at Gary's place for your stay in Edinburgh.
