We had a lovely stay at Alan's flat. He is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and had biscuits waiting for us upon arrival! The flat is quite large and very comfortable. It has a stunning view of Edinburgh Castle as well! Four of us slept comfortably between a bed and sofa bed. The location is fantastic. Less than a ten minute walk to waverly station and central to all of the old town, where most of the sites are. I would highly recommend a stay at Alan's flat and hope to stay there again when I'm next in Edinburgh.
