Galina's place was just as she described in her posting. She was great with communication leading up to my trip and gave very clear directions to find her place. The house and room were very clean, the beds were comfortable, and we had our own bathroom on the same floor as the room fully stocked with shampoos, soaps, and toothpaste. Galina also offered me the use of her mashing machine, which was much appreciated after two weeks of travel. Her place is a little outside of Edinburgh, but is easily accessible by bus, and there is a nice smaller town with lots of services just a walk away. She was a very friendly host, has a cute small dog, and even gave us directions on which bus to take to get into the city.
