We stayed at John's place for two weeks in May-June. We very much enjoyed having a space to call home for a few weeks while we visited Edinburgh. John has a very detailed manual that answered all of our questions and was extremely helpful. We even used it to find places to eat, a nearby grocery store and a post office. The flat is clean, spacious and lovely to look at. I enjoyed the artwork on the walls very much. John was easy to communicate with, and both he and his neighbor were quite attentive during our stay. We loved staying in the Bruntsfield area of Edinburgh, in a fairly quiet neighborhood with easy access to transportation. We also walked quite a bit as it took us only 25 minutes to get to the Museum, Royal Mile, and castle. I highly recommend John's flat if you are looking for a great place to stay in Edinburgh.
