I stayed in Iain's place for one month. I've moved to Edinburgh for a job and staying in his place was a wonderful opening to the life ahead of me in this city. Iain was more than helpful to find my way in this new place. He kindly helped me to find the best way to sort things out; from tips on cultural events and expanding my new social life, to finding a place to rent, and all other practicalities that one needs to sort out upon arrival in a new place. He even came along with me to a viewing to help me make my mind! He just made everything easier and I felt at home in his place.
Additionally, from an architect's point of view, his place is great, well-planned, bright and nicely decorated with plants, unique pieces of furniture etc. AND the bed is extremely comfortable :-)
And last but not least, I made a mistake about the check out date, but he kindly offered me an additional free night at the end. Only a friend would do that!
If you come here to live longer in Edinburgh, Iain's place is the right place to start with; it makes you fall even more in love with this city. And if you come here for a short visit, you would definitely come back to his place after staying with him once.
