We absolutely loved our stay at Duncan & Daniela's place. Our group included my wife and I, plus my parents. Duncan graciously welcomed my parents upon arrival and made them feel so very welcome. We followed in later that night and it was clear to us that they received a proper warm welcome. What a great way to kick off the weekend. The flat was very clean and well stocked. They provide several of those 'non essential' items that we didn't need or expect, but certainly helped to make this stay incredible. Everything from fresh flowers upon arrival to a tray of jelly beans made us feel that our hosts really cared that we enjoyed our stay.

They provided a great welcome pack that included a lot of recommendations. We took their advice on several of those and are thankful we did. They obviously know the area and their input helped to make our stay all the better.

As far as location is concerned, we felt it was very central to everything we wanted to do. A short walk away and you are smack dab in the middle of the Royal mile. By the end of the weekend, we had conquered the royal mile from the top at Edinburgh castle to the bottom at Hollyrood Palace (and every pub in between!).

The only 'issue' we had was when the WiFi stopped working. I gave Duncan a quick text and he responded immediately. He followed up and confirmed it was the service provider who had the issues and apparently the whole area was having the same problem. No fault of our hosts at all and the issue was resolved just a couple hours later. It was really nice to have our host jump into action like that.

Despite their being 4 of us, we all felt like we had plenty of room. One night after a long day of walking, we spent the evening using their Netflix to have a nice comfy movie night.

Overall, I would highly suggest staying here. We will certainly book this place again when returning to Edinburgh.
