We love to walk and found it easy to access restaurants and coffee shops. Used the hop on hop off from St. Andrew’s square along with Ubers for far away places. The flat was perfect for our group travel. Wish we had a longer stay lived Edinburgh.
This was a spacious apartment with nice living space. The space is very clean and very comfortable. The location was great only a mile and a half from old town while a few blocks away from restaurants and pubs apartment was as advertised and we would definitely stay there again.
This was a great stay for our family of six. Great location, nicely furnished and clean, safe and comfortable building and neighborhood. It served us very well.Minor drawbacks: the two "king" beds are definitely more like American queen beds, so not as large as we expected. Floors were extremely creaky no matter where you walk, so I don't recommend it for super light sleepers. En suite bathroom in second king bedroom had a questionable plywood floor section under the toilet.Otherwise, we had a great trip and were very happy with our stay!
Perfect location , beautiful layout. Privacy for family with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Large kitchen; lovely living room. Free parking with daily QR code permit.
Our stay was comfortable, plenty of room for our group of 6. We loved the flexibility of eating in a few dinners and breakfast. Kitchen had everything we needed. Back room across from kitchen is warmer than the rest, but easily remedied by opening a window. Confusing place for lockbox key, but friendly neighbor assisted when walking her dog. Awesome place, close to public transportation.
The apartment was clean and well appointed. The location is excellent for exploring on foot. The parking was good. Getting the QR code to work for the parking was a bit difficult. The draw backs were the floors creaked very loudly which was disturbing at night if others were up. The master room mattress is very hard and uncomfortable. Otherwise the place is as described.

Great apartment in a very nice area of Edinburgh. Everything was good, size of rooms, cleanliness etc. Only issues was heating which had a mind of its own, set to 24 C etc, we fixed it after 2 warm nights. Biggest isue was check in. There were 9 lockboxes, all had been turned to same code so other people had same problem. It was dark, raining and very confusing.

Dear Guest,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re delighted to hear that the apartment’s location, spacious rooms, and cleanliness made for an enjoyable stay.
We do, however, regret the inconvenience you faced with the heating and check-in process. We completely understand how frustrating it must have been to deal with both the unpredictable temperature and the confusion with the lockboxes, especially in the dark and rainy weather. Rest assured, we are addressing this matter to ensure a smoother experience for future guests.
We appreciate your patience and understanding, and we look forward to hosting you again with a more seamless experience.
Best Regards,
Joivy Team
Nice apartment with comfortable furnishings. Close to restaurants, bus and tram line. Photos showed separate washer and dryer but that wasn’t what was in our unit. Restrictions on using washer/dryer was inconvenient as you were not allowed to use it before 8:00 a.m. or after 8:00 p.m. and we were out all day and often didn’t return until after 8:00p.m. Other than that it was a pleasant stay. I would book again at this property.

Decent for price but not much there
The location is a little off the main areas so you need a car or an Uber ride to get somewhere. The beds are ok, nice to have 3 bathrooms but the place was not very clean. The floors in the kitchen and bathrooms need a good scrubbing. Otherwise, the place served its purpose. It is rented by a company, not a person, so we had trouble finding the lock to get the key and had to talk to a company to get the instructions. Other than that, no problems.
The amenities that were important for our party as advertised weren’t provided - 3 functioning bathrooms, functioning laundry and a coffee maker. In addition, the fridge wasn’t running when we arrived and needed troubleshooting; bathroom bins still had rubbish in them and the showers weren’t cleaned when we arrived; and a washroom tap came off and had to be screwed back on while water was spewing. To top it off, none of these issues were resolved during our stay - just met with responses like “we’re escalating to the appropriate team” and “thank you for your patience”.
This Edinburgh flat was very clean. It was so nice to have 3 bathrooms. Walking to into the old town was a little bit of a hike for my 75 year old Mom, but taxi's were fairly inexpensive. The area around the flat seemed to be pretty safe. We didn't feel uncomfortable at any time. I would highly recommend this as a place to stay. We would stay there again in a heartbeat.
