Staying at Mike's place has been a great experience.
Everything worked out very well. Also, a very big Thank you to Mike who took on our luggage, which got lost on our way to Edinburgh. The airline company didn't ring us as planned (I felt very guilty). Mike also let us check-in earlier than planned. Mike made us feel comfortable and safe. He gave us advices on public transport, grocery stores etc. .
My brother and I have been astonished how organized the kitchen was; very excellent detailed planning.
With is house a bit outside of the city centre, accommodating at Mike's place, definitely gave us a better perspective on the city of Edinburgh.
