As a host, Helen was warm and welcoming, even allowing me to check in early after I arrived in Edinburgh ahead of schedule. Her home is absolutely lovey, and she did everything possible to make me fee welcome. She even slipped a few little Easter eggs in with my breakfast on Easter Sunday. I could not have asked for a better stay. Her flat is artsy and beautiful, and the room was comfortable and well stocked in amenities, including a kettle and a wide variety of refreshments.
