Hi Great apartment! Very calm with a view on a garden and sun in the morning! Well heated, clean and neat.Nice location, nearby a Tesco and lidl for groceries, some nice restaurants too (pub o connor, a pizzeria etc). Bus stop nearby and easy to walk to downtown. We really enjoyed!I may just say that the waterpressure was not that good in the shower and difficult to keep warm (it was too hot or too cold)

Warm quiet comfy & central enough if you enjoy walking around & exploring.
Spot on for location to central Edinburgh. Accomodation is pretty basic but did exactly what we wanted. If you want luxury, this isn’t for you. Also had a relative offer to drive us to Edinburgh at the last minute and with the sofa bed we were able to offer him an overnight stay for an extra £15.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and made the most of the central location. We are also glad we were able to accommodate your relative! We look forward to welcoming you back again soon
This apartment is in a great location. Although a bit away from the New Town and Old Town, the area still has a lot to offer. The Royal Botanic Gardens are beautiful and there’s walking trails nearby. It’s also across the street from both a Lidl and Tesco, so very convenient for groceries! I also highly recommend checking out Hata down the street for their porridge and overnight oats.
Overall it was a great stay. My main complaint is it could’ve been cleaned better. When getting to the plug behind the couch I noticed lot’s of dust and some plastic garbage left behind it that I ended cleaning up. I also found cobwebs on the ceilings/walls and 10 spiders on the ceilings. Once I vacuumed everything up I no longer found anymore spiders, which makes me believe the cleaners just did a very poor job.
Also! I wouldn’t book this place if you’re planning to do a good amount of cooking. The kitchen is small and the counter space is very limited.

Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We are glad you made the most of the property's good location. Thank you too for sharing your feedback on cleaning during your stay. Again, we do apologise that this was not of the standard expected of our team. We have already raised this with them and asked that the necessary improvements are made. Please note we were more than happy to arrange for them to return and address any concerns but this offer was not taken up. We hope to welcome you to Edinburgh again soon.
Thank you for your review! We're so glad to hear you found the apartment relaxed, quiet, and easy to access. We’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime!

Eigentlich eine schöne Wohnung, aber...
Eigentlich eine schöne, kleine Wohnung, aber leider war überall Schmutz, die Küchenutensilien waren nicht vernünftig gereinigt, die Sitzkissen in der Sitzecke hatten dreckige Ränder, zudem waren die Böden teilweise defekt und in Bad und WC gab es Abplatzungen am Furnier. Die Dusche war innen ebenfalls dreckig.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you found the apartment nice and well-sized. However, we’re sorry to hear about the cleanliness issues you encountered. We’ve addressed the problems with the kitchen utensils, seat cushions, floors, and bathroom fixtures to improve the overall cleanliness. We appreciate your comments and are committed to making the necessary improvements.
L'appartement est agréable dans l'ensemble de par sa localisation et son infrastructure. Il est proche de magasins pour faire ses courses et de pubs et restaurants. Aussi, vous êtes à 15-20mn à pieds du centre d'Edinbourg. Cependant, ne correspond pas à l'occupation de 4 personnes à moins de changer le canapé dépliant. Mes filles de 10 et 12 ans ont trouvé que le lit etait très petit pour deux.
