As far as hosts go, it doesn't get much better than Martin. From the moment we booked, communication was excellent and made the stay run smoothly. Martin met us at the apartment and was full of helpful information and tips about the area. Martin also offered us to leave our luggage in his apartments storage area while we explored the next day. The apartment is gorgeous! The location is perfect, it's right smack bang in the middle of all major attractions. Would highly recommend staying at Martin's place and we definitely will when we visit Edinburgh again.
