Allan was an excellent host, and personally welcomed us into his apartment. He gave us a quick lay of the land, some good suggestions on where to eat/drink, and finally, a lovely gift basket that had some delicious shortbread!
The apartment was super close to the Waverly train station and both Old Town and New Town were easily walkable. It was also spotless and Allan was kind enough to give us fresh towels and linens.
Would definitely stay again on my next visit to Edinburgh!
