Phil went above and beyond for us as a host, and we couldn't be happier with our stay. He greeted us upon arrival to give us a feel for the flat, and made sure to give us tons of local recommendations. The flat was perfect for us and made us feel at home in Edinburgh. There were lots of restaurants and pubs within a 10 minute walk, and there was a bus stop just outside the door for several regular routes that took less than 20 minutes to get to the city center. Phil was also very communicative before and during our stay, which was honestly invaluable. Phil's flat has got to be the best place to stay in Edinburgh!
