Pier was an amazing host - very communicative and provided us with great tips for restaurants and bars. The apartment is lovely, spacious and clean. It's in a wonderful area just northeast of the center of town, about a 20 minute walk or 15 minute bus ride. There are loads of little cafes, restaurants, bakeries, bars and small grocery stores. We enjoyed being in this part of town we might not otherwise have explored. I will definitely stay here again when I return to Edinburgh! You couldn't ask for better hospitality.
