Chris's place was in a great location - walkable to everything we wanted to do in Edinburgh. Chris was a welcoming host - he worked with us to work around our canceled flight (and day late arrival), offered suggestions for our stay, and even provided us with basics for the flat upon our arrival (milk, bread, chocolate, etc.).
The flat was stunning. The furniture, decor and details of the place (i.e., crown molding) were right in our wheelhouse and made us feel like we were staying in a grand Scottish residence. The amenities (like bathroom, hot water, etc.), though, were all perfectly up-to-date - so it was the perfect combination of the two.
When we next come to Edinburgh, we will absolutely see if Chris's place is available!
