The best thing about Malcolm's place is definitely the location! My boyfriend and I found it incredibly convenient to get around Edinburgh, and the view of the castle was great. The apartment was also quite clean and tidy, though some of the furniture and cabinets are a bit shabby, could be fixed up a bit. The only real problem though was the towels, we discovered that they appear to be hung to dry in a closet after being washed. The same closet where the towels and linens are stored is also home to a dusty vacuum cleaner and the water heater. The vacuum cleaner full of dust and dirt is stored next to the towels and sheets and the towels are hung to dry right in that same closet as well! As a result the towels had a strange musty smell and really didn't feel fresh and clean. They also seemed quite old and stiff. I would definitely suggest not storing clean linens in the same closed, musty space as the water heter and vacuum cleaner.
