Location was fairly close to Edinburgh centre which made it easy to get around. My girlfirend and I stayed for 5 days without getting on any public transport and still managed to visit every major attraction with just a 10-20 minute walk. Nearby take outs and restaurants makes meals easy and effortless. The room was enough for two people and would leave you just enough space for your bags and shoes. I would say that this would be ideal for resting and sleeping. The hosts deliver the complete package - Gerry gives a lot of ideas on how to enjoy your stay, while Carol makes sure that everything runs well. P.S. Nice, wooden floors; so bring slippers.
