Craig: He was around during my stay and was very accommodating and helpful. I had a very late check in but he was open to my arrival time. He gave me a kind welcome and quick tour of the space. I mostly kept to myself and Craig respected my privacy but would always say good morning or have a little chat if we crossed paths. Overall, pleasant guy who gives you your space but is happy to help if you need him.
Location: The building itself is on a street that is a bit off putting at first glance but don't be alarmed. It is very quiet and I got a good night's sleep. I also felt okay walking back home at around 23:00. It is further North but so well located that Edinburgh City Center and other towns are anywhere between 20min-45min(Arthur's Seat!)walk away. Buses are very close by and there are many shops, grocery stores, and restaurants a few blocks away if you don't feel like going far.
Room: The apartment itself is very tiny but suitable for Craig and any one of his airbnb guests. The room is tiny but it has a comfortable bed, a rack with hangers, storage drawers, a lamp, and a heater that works very well. There is a large window but the blackout windows did their job well. Also as a female traveler I appreciated having a bedroom door that locks from the inside.
Overall: My stay was very pleasant and easy going. It was my first air bnb ever and I am open to future ones now. Craig also allowed to use his kitchen and store any food items in the fridge. Did I mention I was offered a warm cup of tea after arriving late and tired? Good location, easy transport, good communication.
NOW GO ENJOY EDINBURGH :)
