"Disappointing"

1.The Beds, pillows.

1. No hot water, in shower, bathroom washbasin, kitchen washbasin. It was available ONLY for Day 2, morning for a couple of hours. The property in charge was informed at that time itself. 2. No carpets on the floor of bedroom. 3. No litter bin in bedroom. 4. The floor wood top in the bedroom was noisy when walked. 5. The Bread Toaster was unclean. The property in charge was informed. 6. No staff or Reception personnel. 7. Room or toilet was not cleaned from our checkin to check out. 8. A mirror for dressing could be fixed on to the wall or upon a dressing table. Instead, one tall mirror has been placed on a corner of the bedroom. 9. The window of this room called, " Morroccan " is facing and close to the building entrance. Therefore, it lacks privacy, eventhough, there is a. Curtain

"I had a peaceful, comfortable stay."

8.0

For 1 person room Paris was comfortably spacy. It’s a quiet street still near the centre. Beds are very comfortable and the bathroom was spacious as well and clean.

No real dislikes but becausethe houses lookalike the first time it’s hard to find.

"Good"

7.0

Position and quiet neighbors. The living room is beautiful.

The room was not clean and so was the kitchen . The oriental room does not have any closet or wardrobe . The decorations are ok but it is not comfortable. The place has potential but needs attention and a better cleaner. We are definitely not feeling very welcoming.

"Great stay! Will definitely stay here again!"

8.0

The location is not far from Edinburgh Waverley Station. The shared kitchen has everything you need. It has washing machine and the cleaning lady allowed me to leave my luggage in the hallway for a couple of hours after I checked out.

Nothing but a few things could be improved for a much better experience.
