My friend and I had a lovely visit to Edinburgh for the long weekend, and I attribute much of that to our stay at Neil's flat. In addition to the wonderful hospitality, cleanliness, and comfort attributed to Neil's place, perhaps the best feature was the walk into the city centre. Though a 10-15-minute walk may seem a bit long for some, for us--two college-aged women--the walk was safe, scenic and well-lit, considering it bordered both The Meadows and the University of Edinburgh. We actually concluded that we would've preferred a stay at Neal's to something closer to the city centre, as it allowed greater access to residential areas and nice paths for jogging and running--one of which led us right to Holyrood Park and Arthur's Seat. As our first Airbnb experience, Neil provided a great home away from home with amenities and reliable communication--will definitely consider his flat again on our next trip to Edinburgh!
