"Lovely little apartment in a central location"

9.0

Very central location near the castle and camera obscura. Not too far to walk from Edinburgh Waverley train station. Bed extra comfortable with great pillows and soft bedding. Apartment very clean. Plenty of toilet roll provided (other reviews said only 2 rolls, we were left 4). No issues with noise. Fab view from the window. Staff extremely helpful and quickly respond to any questions, cannot fault them.

Overly sensitive smoke alarm which went off when making toast, even if the extractor was on. Happened again when we tried moving the toaster near the open window. Bathroom sink very slow draining. Could do with a bit more hanging space for clothes and a mirror in the bedroom for drying hair.

"Fantastic find"

8.0

A lovely flat, tastefully decorated, in a fabulous location. One of the most comfortable beds I have slept in. Had all we needed and no noise when we were in the bedroom - i always think of Edinburgh as full of sirens and loud voices.

You have to ignore the oose and stoor on the stairs from the 1st floor up. The flat is lovely but needs a wee touch up on the paint to cover marks, stains and where a piece of furniture must have rubbed

"Smelly sewer gas leaking into apartment"

1.0

Location.

We did not stay due to an open soil stack pipe leaking gas into apartment. The plumber that they got around the day after confirmed that this was a unused washing pipe that did not have the proper valve. The management company at first refused to move us and even implied it may be something we had done. I had to full on argue with the person Denise and until I mentioned my husband had cancer and was under treatment she refused to do anything. It was ten at night and we could not stay there because of smell, she said we could have refund but we had nowhere to go. On learning my husband had cancer she all of a sudden found another apartment to put us in. My husband and I were exposed to sewer gas and she would not move us, later found out that under Scottish law, my husband is considered a vunerable person which changes what the company would be liable for. I would get confirmation that this situation had been sorted before booking.

"Muy bien ubicado, decoración antigua, para estar en el centro pero si preciosa algo para la calidad del departamento"

7.0

Está bien ubicado pero hay que subir demasiadas escaleras con las valijas

No teníamos suficiente papel higiénico y tuvimos que salir a comprar. No hay vista en la habitación sino a paredes y se siente todo el ruido de los vecinos

"Apartamento ideal para una pareja en pleno centro de la ciudad"

9.0

La ubicación en plena royal mile es sin duda lo mejor

Que la salida sea a las 10am por el tema de las maletas me parece excesivamente pronto con lo que se paga
