Everything was perfect from start to finish:
- Location - mere steps to Royal Mile and easily walkable from Waverly Station or the Airport Tram stop at Princes Street
- Views from hall and room windows over the city rooftops
- Cleanliness 10/10
- The bedding was also 10/10 (super comfortable)
- Excellent detailed communication from the host (let's you know before you even have to ask!) about check in, but also about things to look out for in your travels based on current happenings (eg, friendly warning about air travel woes with luggage going astray this summer)
- Friendly chats over breakfast with honest suggestions
- Even with a central location, noise wasn't an issue (and this during Fringe)
- Little details - converter plugs, USBs, small snacks, up to date brochures on local happenings, bathroom supplies, and our favorite ... the window boxes with fresh flowers
- Host was responsive and available, but your privacy in his large apartment was ensured
I could go on and on. Patrick's place makes and excellent base for your Edinburgh stays. We only hope our room at his place will be available on our next visit.
