I give Amanda's place and her hospitality, the highest of endorsements. Her place is centrally located, is cheerful, as is she herself. Her room was comfortable and had a nice view, and she made good breakfasts. She is also very knowledgeable and helpful - gave me great recommendations of things to do and see, and though it was my first time in Edinburgh, I felt at home, with her, and the city. My stay in Edinburgh was truly enjoyable, in large part because of her help!
