I was at Alan's place with my parents and it was the best place ever throughout all the airbnb or even hotels. Everything we needed were prepared with organized printout as well as kind explanation. Beautiful and super-clean, very spacious with sophisticated touches with paintings and lightings. The location as well as the neighbour are perfect. 10 minutes by direct buses to get to the city center and 5 minutes walk to the train station for a day trip to nearby towns. My parents were sad to leave. Strongly recommend to anybody visiting Edinburgh! :)
