Wayne’s place is cosy and has a good, central location. It’s near University of Edinburgh, so you’ll see students around the area. Affordable eats as well nearby. Also, from train station to the house, it’s pretty much step-free (good news for heavy luggage). The only few steps are in the house as the room is on second floor. Room does not exactly face Arthur’s Seat.
Wayne was quick and helpful in response by text when I asked to borrow towel and cup.
The only downside is the creaking floors (I feel bad going to the bathroom late at night because of the noise). If you’re a light sleeper, bring ear plugs and also eye shade as the curtain is not thick enough to shut lights completely.
Despite all of this, I find Wayne’s place to be value for money (especially for the location) and would stay there again.
