David is an amazing host. We enjoyed every bit of our stay at his place. We had a lovely time talking with him and he gave us many tips for visiting Edinburgh.
The flat is in a beautiful campus near the Fettes college and there's a bus stop on either side of the entrance that can take you directly to the centre (about 10-15 mins journey).
The beds were big and comfy. We would wake up every morning to a good breakfast (consisting of different buns / breads, spreads, hummus, cheese and a few cold cuts) and brewed coffee or teas.
David plays the guitar really well. See if you can persuade him to play a few lines of his own composition for you.
I would highly recommend David's place and will definitely go back here when I visit Edinburgh again.
Tip: Those visiting Edingburgh for the first time and travelling by bus, you need to pay exact change to the driver for your ticket, notes and/or coins, and will not get back any change. Buy the £4.00 day pass instead. It costs £1.70 for a single trip.
