"Flat in the center of Edinburgh"

Top location, near train station. Short way to everything.

Some traffic noise. Small doublebed. No elevator.

"Location is the only good part"

3.0

The location is great if you're willing to forgo cleanliness.

My original problem is that it doesn't seem like they're very attentive to cleaning the apartment. Not sure booking.com will allow links but here are some pictures I took upon arriving. https://photos.app.goo.gl/xiMCgnARvDrctZUaA I informed the proprietor of our concerns and they offered to send someone over to deal with our chief complaint which was the mold in the tile and what we thought was mold in the carpet under the radiator (there was a leak you can see in one of the photos). I wouldve left it at that but no one actually came to do that work. Thats really the biggest hangup I have about our experience at this point. It's extremely unprofessional to commit to a resolution to an issue and not deliver. Forget the fact that mine and my kids allergies were aggravated from being around the couch in the living room or that the linens seemed dingey and had stains on the throw pillows, all of that could've been forgiven if they put in effort when informed, but they chose not to. Would not recommend, spend your money elsewhere.

"Great location, but please give advance notice and explanations to how to work utilities."

7.0

First off, the location was AWESOME! It was so close to everything! We LOVED that the property itself was "old" in that everything was perfect! The views were wonderful! One would expect some quaintness when renting an apartment in a city with such history. All of the amenities/features were as stated. The property manager was in touch with us regarding our concerns and needs.

The booking listing and information about getting into the property stated we would contacted "24 hours before" to give instructions for entering into the facilities. We were not given that information until an hour or two before we arrived, and this was after we had tried to email/text the contact person. We were having connectivity issues because of travel, but we weren't having connectivity issues 24 hours before the stay. So trying to reach someone when we couldn't was very stressful when you are traveling, expecting you will have a room, and yet, you don't know if you will have one! It makes things seems indefinite....As we told the property manager, some things that would have made our stay better would be having explanations of things (location of WiFi password, how to make the shower work correctly, how to work the TV, where to find towels/linens/blankets for the people not staying in the bedroom). We did not let them know of the difficulty we had with the washer/drier: it is a combo. We have never seen that. We though it was neat and saved space and very eco friendly. However, the number of drying cycles needed to dry items takes away from any eco savings. Knowing how to work this correctly would have been much better. In addition, knowing how to work the lock to go into the building would have been helpful. A tenant who lives in the building just happened to walk up while we were entering, and he explained the "quirks" of the door when he saw we were having trouble.

Location really close to main central station.

Very difficult to open the street door. You have to go up 5 floors with stairs.

"Good location, excellent host and clean place to stay for a couple of nights."

7.0

We loved our short trip. Location was excellent and the toilet, kitchen and bathroom done out to high standards. The bed was comfortable and the location excellent. We liked the way the apartment had been refurbished from an old tenement building. It was cosy and warm and inviting for a family.

The apartment was up a lot of stairs. There was no lift. One of us, who has a dislocating hip, struggled a bit with this . Suggestions for improvement. There was only one pillow for the sofa bed. One parent forfeited their second pillow. There was some damage to a few areas we noticed on arrival. Big chunks of concrete falling out of entrance area immediately outside flat- a repair here would help with overall impression.. One of the curtain draw backs was missing in main bedroom and the small table in the living room was at a slant. A lot of the drawers were filled with broken items and old bits and bobs and old post. We would like to have had somewhere to hang clothes - there was already a lot of stuff in the wardrobe along with hoover etc .

"The overall stay was great, despite of misunderstanding with time and wrong keys at the check in."

7.0

Excellent location, very close to the main attractions - 10-15 min walking distance from the Edinburgh Castle and old street. Market, shops, train station are close by. Can easily accommodate 4 guests.

The bed linen was not clean, there was no spear blanket to cover the guest in the living room, there was no hand towel in the toilet/bathroom. The radiator in the bedroom was leaking (the carpet was damp).
