Javed's house is a perfect place to stay in Edinburgh. I went in August when the Fringe festival was happening. It was easy to get to the Royal Mile by bus and the whole old town! The house is in a residential area close to a Shopping Centre - 5 min walking or less. I stayed in a small single room and yet, very comfortable, looking exactly how you see in the pictures, suitable for all needs of one traveller. I must say that Javed is very welcoming we had a long chat on my arrival having a tea. His wife is also very kind and both of them were there for a small talk. If you go to Edinburgh, that's definitely my recommendation!
