I chose to stay at Manigeh's place because of the excellent ratings and central location. The room was cozy and had everything I needed. There was natural light coming into the room which I wasn't expecting with it being a basement, which was a pleasant surprise. Complimentary tea and coffee were a nice touch. Manigeh is a warm, helpful and accommodating host. She let me leave my luggage at her place the day after my stay while I attended a meeting nearby. Would thoroughly recommend staying here and would stay again when visiting Edinburgh.
