I have stayed at Derek and Rebecca's place during my last visit to Edinburgh. They were very quick in responding regarding my request for reservation. Derek met me upon check in - He was very friendly, and gave me lots of useful information about this wonderful city. The place itself was excellent - spotless when I checked in, nicely decorated, with a really comfortable king size bed, a nice TV, fully equipped cozy kitchen, nice bathroom, and the best of all - an amazing peaceful, green garden with a gas BBQ. All of this right in the city center! Edinburgh is a wonderful city with very friendly people - Derek and Rebecca's place made my stay even better. Do not hesitate to book their place when you are in town - it is just perfect.
