The apartment is perfectly located in Newtown, nearby the trendy Stockbridge and a 10 minute walk from Oldtown. It is located in a classical Newtown building, and Selby and his family have respected a similar and authentic style within their apartment, giving it a warm and welcome feeling.
The room is located in a separate hall, which gave us enough privacy and comfort. Selby allowed us to use the kitchen for dinner and prepared breakfast in the morning. He is a very warm and welcoming person, that provided us with the right information and tips for what to do in Edinburgh (we went to one of his favorite pubs in Stockbridge, which was a great experience). He is a good host, who knows how to welcome his guests while at the same time leaving them enough space to feel comfortable.
We definitely recommend staying at Selby's place =)
