Brett contacted us ahead of time and even phoned me when I could not respond up in the highlands. He wanted to see to all our needs! Very responsible.
As for Eddie his mom, she made you feel like her kids from the start. At first she will address you as "Sir" & "Madam" until you tell her to stop, but she is really down to earth and loves her boy Brett.
The place is very close to a co-op that is around the corner and down the street from Haymarket station. The place is immaclately clean. The room has a small ensuite.
We opted for the Thai breakfast since we are trying to eat more vegetables. She served fresh cut up fruit with juice, tea, coffee, toast with butter & jams & yogurt.
For the mains she served asian stlye omelete with spinich and served with three sauces. In addition, a chicken stir fry along with fresh cooked rice. It was like eating at a restaurant. You will leave the table full and satisfied!
She has an iron, hair dryer, plug adapters, extra pillows in closet etc(pillows/sheets/towels smell clean and bed very comfortable). A closet to hang clothes is provided with full lenth mirrors.
The bus stop into town is right by the co-op and drops you at Pricess St or by Royal Mile. Or you can walk to the start of it in 15 minutes.
Many tasty restaurants(First Coast, etc) are nearby. The main street with the restaurants may appear a bit old but it is very safe. Many students from the schools stay around there. Of course families and others too.
You will not regret the stay!
