Derek is a most attentive host. As soon as we booked, he sent information about how to get to the place and where to park for free 1 block away; weekends are free anyway.

When we got there, he was waiting for us explaining everything about the house, but also giving great tips about pubs, restaurants and Edinburgh in general.

The apartment is very nice, great location, great view of part of the city, even the castle if you lean out of the window. About 20 minutes walk from the center, with a nice walk along the canal.
