Reviews

Trolland 10/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Pros: The location was gorgeous really loved the apartment beds were really comfortable

Niamh 8/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Great location perfect for city centre and Stockbridge. Would recommend

Pros: Great location, easy to find, everything was as expected, shower was great

Cons: Mirror in bathroom was very hard to use, needed an extra chair at kitchen table, not enough toilet roll, used sofa as a bed so no extra lounging area which is understandable

Sally 8/10

Pros: Fantastic location. We usually stay in the Old Town but will probably make the move to this area from now on. Place was clean and warm. Easy to access and instructions were good.

Cons: The beds could do with proper mattresses on them or at least some pillow tops. They were horribly hard and uncomfortable. Especially if you haven’t got a great back. And this is a bit nit-picky but the walls could do with a clean. Lots of marks and didn’t make for a great first impression. Would lift the atmosphere of place a lot.

Great location, cosy apartment

Pros: The location was perfect. We could walk to restaurants, bars, shops, supermarket and the castle.,

Cons: Some things were not clean. The bathroom window was very grimy. The bedrooms were spotless though.

Ashley 9/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Pros: The kitchen was fully equipped which is very convenient for us. spacious bathroom. Cozy flat.

Cons: Maybe the only thing that made it hard for our elderly parents is the location which is a bit far from the spots that we wanted to visit but other than that no problem at all. Strict with check in, I tried calling them as we arrived a bit early but they said check in is at 4PM.

Usha 9/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

A very pleasant stay.

Pros: The property was very clean and well equipped. It’s situated on a quiet lane just a few minutes from the hustle and bustle of Princes Street. The early morning excursions we went on departed from Charlotte Square which is even closer. All five of us were very pleased with the property and the value.

Cons: Can’t think of anything.

Mikaelly 10/10

Pros: We loved this apartment, it's a small apartment but that wasn't a problem, it had everything we needed, and it's in a great location. I recommend it

Saskia 8/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Gorgeous apartment, but not really comfortable for four or more.

Pros: The apartment was in a brilliant location and had all the facilities you could need for a short stay. The beds were comfortable, and the apartment was bright and airy.

Cons: I found the apartment to be very cold. The fire didn’t work and it seemed to take a long time for the apartment to get up to temperature. There also wasn’t enough space for the entire occupancy to sit comfortably, as there is only one sofa, which is the sofa bed. The sofa bed also tipped up if you placed your weight too much on one side. There was also some post left there for - I assume - the owner. Not really an issue, but from a privacy concern, I would not be comfortable with leaving my post in open view.

O'keefe 8/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Lovely view over James Clerk Maxwell's garden!

Pros: Quiet Location. Easy to travel from airport by tram. Keys in key box on door made entry easy. TV good.

Cons: Apartment was missing family friendly items - travel cot, highchair, stairgate, and no bath, which made it hard for travel with a baby as so much extra to carry up a tight staircase. Would go again and pay extra to rent travel cot, and highchair if made available.

Glorivel 9/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Pros: Staff were really good with communicating and replying if you had queries. Location was really close to everything and area felt very safe.

Cons: Fridge hadn't been cleaned, but that was the only negative thing about the accommodation.
