Neil is a friendly, helpful and uncomplicated host, and Neil's flat is the perfect location from which to explore Edinburgh. There are some nice pubs, restaurants, a supermarket and a bike rental outlet nearby (and a coffee shop where schottish workers eat their schottish breakfast - if your interested in tasting a *real* one ;-) ... ). The Grass Market, Old Town and Edinburgh Castle are reachable within about 10-15min by foot. The flat is really beatiful and clean. Also from me: 5 solid stars.
