Ather and his place are awesome! I had had an unexpectedly bad experience with the Airbnb I was already booked into for the night and needed to find alternative accommodation in a hurry. I found Ather's place and contacted him very late in the evening. He was a star and picked me up (as he was out and about himself). His place is just as it is in the photos - very clean and comfortable - I had a great night's sleep. I didn't really get to see the local area because I was literally leaving Edinburgh the next day but it was quiet and seemed safe and isn't too far from Dean Village (which is just stunning!). I would definitely recommend you stay with Ather, you won't be disappointed.
