Guest Reviews

• Heather (5/5): Very disappointed that the issues were not address immediately, just passed on to the cleaners, ... - Self catering, so we took our own supplies. Comfy place and heating worked well as chilly most evenings we were there. Shower was really good and bathroom clean, as was the fridge. Previous occupant had left a shirt in the wardrobe, Which made us think the cleaners hadn't been thorough enough, so, for the sake of hygiene, we thoroughly cleaned all the items we were going to use in the kitchen. I did take photos of these unclean areas in case there was an issue over it..but felt it warranted more communication from the owner after I reported it.

• IÑIGO (6/5): Good location. Bedroom needs improvement - La localización y el salón son decentes. La calefacción funciona muy bien. El acceso es por una escalera muy estrecha y compartes un recibidor con otros tres pisos. El colchón es pequeño y malo. La ventana del dormitorio no aísla el ruido, por la noche oyes a todos los coches y a la mañana te despiertan las gaviotas. El armario tiene los cajones prácticamente desmontados
• Antonio (9/5): - El completo equipamiento del apartamento. La cama era bastante estrecha para dos personas.
• Štěpán (8/5): -
• Mirko (10/5): - Appartamento pulito, comodo e caldo. Termo facile da regolare, cucina completa di tutti gli utensili, bagno nuovo e pulito Letto comodissimo Super consigliato
• céline (7/5): Sympa pour un court séjour - Quartier facile d'accès, calme et agréable, avec des restaurants sympa au alentours. Emplacement pratique, proche des attractions principales et facile pour se déplacer. La propreté laisse à désirer, notamment dans la salle de bain où il y avait de la moisissure sur les joints. Le linge de douche présentait également des tâches. Le lit est petit et le manque de double vitrage rend la chambre bruyante et laisse passer l’air froid, avec en plus des courants d’air sous la porte. L’appartement était assez froid et le chauffage met beaucoup de temps à chauffer. Enfin, certains équipements sont à revoir, comme une ampoule clignotante dans la salle de bain.
• Iker (9/5): - Ubicación muy buena, permitiendo llegar a la Royal Mile andando en poco tiempo. Muy cerca de todos los puntos turísticos y también de aprovisionamiento (tiendas, super mercados, restaurantes...); pero lo suficientemente alejado del ruido. El apartamento era espacioso y muy moderno, con una muy buena relación calidad/precio. El baño es recogido pero la ducha es bastante espaciosa. La cama es cómoda y el salón con la televisión perfecto para desconectar al acabar el día. El anfitrión está pendiente durante la estancia de las incidencias. Al llegar el plato de ducha estaba manchado de agua sucia. Aunque al ponernos en contacto con el anfitrión nos aclaró que fue por el servicio de mantenimiento y que simplemente debía de tratarse de agua al hacer pruebas. Solventamos muy rápido el inconveniente. La cocina tiene el equipo justo para cocinar pero no hay de todo y faltan tapas para la sartén. Pero se puede cocinar bien.
• Oliván (9/5): - Buena ubicación. Menaje muy completo y muy limpio. Wifi La escalera y el patio de acceso eran algo sórdidos
• Stone (7/5): - Location very good Road noise in bedroom due to windows, could perhaps look at internal glazing
• Arnaud (8/5): Buen lugar para Vacacionar - El tamaño del departamento y ubicacion La cama un poco pequeña igual que el plumon
• Alexandra (10/5): - J'ai tout apprécié lors de mon séjour ! L'appartement était à la hauteur de mes attentes je recommande vivement cet hôte ! Appartement bien situé qui plus est, et pratique ! Merci beaucoup !
• Muhammad (1/5): - Poor quality , dirty , owners attitude unacceptable very rude not helpful at all Won’t recommend anyone this property at all
• Iria (6/5): -
• Jaskaran (10/5): -
• Kareena (8/5): Great place to stay for 2 - Good location, only about 10-15 mins walk from Royal Mile and plenty of small supermarkets really close for provisions. Flat was warm and comfortable and had everything we needed. Key collection was simple. Hubby kept banging his knee on the glass coffee table! Would have been good to have the same internal secondary glazing in the bedroom like the living room but we didn't find the road noise too loud.
• Kelly (9/5): Perfect location to explore Edinburgh, close to the city centre, parks, and main streets. The apartment was cosy with al - Perfect location and a really comfy couch!
• Céline (7/5): Une semaine sympathique dans un bon cadre - L’emplacement proche du old town était parfait. Nous étions rapidement sur Royal Mile. J’ai apprécié la douche. Nous avons eu de l’eau chaude constamment, sans baisse de pression. Il faisait bon dans l’appartement sans besoin de mettre le chauffage. L’appartement était bien rangé et propre. Salon agréable avec une très grande télévision. Un frigo et un gaz très pratiques, des prises partout. la dame du café qui nous a accueilli pour nous donner les clés était très gentille et serviable. Les équipements de cuisine (couteau, poêle, caserole) étaient abîmés. Les couteaux ne coupaient pas, le Téflon était arraché (cancérigène). La « planche » a découpé n’était qu’un bout de plastique souple, ce n’était pas très pratique. La poubelle était aussi à moitié cassée donc compliqué de faire le tri sélectif. L’isolation sonore n’est pas incroyable, on entendait les voisins. Et dans la chambre on étend la rue.
• Alpízar (7/5): Bien pero con algunas cosas que pensar - El lugar esta bien, pero el personal por medio de booking nunca respondió nuestros mensajes por medio de la app y los diferentes problemas que se presentaron tuvimos que buscar la forma de resolver La ducha tenía pelos de otras personas en una pared y no se veía del todo limpio, el personal no responde por la app de booking. Cocinamos carne y se activo la alarma de incendio varias veces y tuvimos que abrir las ventanas y aguantar el frío para que entrara viento. Siempre hay que tener la puerta del baño cerrada porque si no entra frío por ahi, ya que al parecer solo la calefacción de la habitación funciona.
• May (8/5): -
• Eilid (8/5): - Location, facilities Noisy
• Richard (8/5): Good location, good flat: well maintained, clean, tastefully decorated and well fitted out. -
• jackie (9/5): Lovely little flat - Very spacious Good location Felt that it needed a really deep clean
• Kacper (7/5): Spoko na city break. - Świetna lokalizacja. Wygodne łóżko. Dobrze wyposażone mieszkanie. Czystość łazienki. Mole spożywcze.
• Eduard (8/5): - The apartment is beautiful and comfortable. The only negative thing is the very dirty building where it's placed.
• Cosgriff (9/5): - Great location, close to old city and Arthur’s Seat. Only one flight of stairs to access the apartment. Good security, comfortable and very warm. Roomy for two people Shower very slow to drain and no holder for the loo paper.
• Jacob (4/5): This stay was fine, despite my issues with it. Considering the price, I would not recommend. - Location was good. Bed was comfy. Building entrance and common areas were extremely dirty. The kitchen area was inadequately cleaned (we found crumbs on the countertop). No soap or shampoo were provided for the shower. Host was a very poor communicator - I reached out twice in the days/weeks before arrival with important and time sensitive questions that were going to impact our trip planning, and the host took a week to respond to the first inquiry and never responded to the second.
• Jill (9/5): -
• sara (6/5): - Appartamento spazioso e pulita .Cucina ed elettrodomestici nuovi Lo staff ha comunicato le regole e gli eventuali extra da pagare ..L’extra da pagare se si sporcano gli asciugamani di make up mi sembra eccessivo
• Nicole (10/5): - Kleines Appartement bestens aufgeteilt, alles da, was man braucht Relativ viel Verkehr in der Nacht
• Winzeler (10/5): One of the nicest rentals we've ever done. -
• Gianmarco (10/5): Exceptional -
• Peter (8/5): Finlay was an excellent host. The inclusion of a free laundry service was an unexpected bonus. - Lack of off-street or even nearby free on street parking was an inconvenience. As a result, I elected to return my hire vehicle a day earlier than I had planned. Lugging two large suitcases up to two sets of stairs was a minor hassle.
• Anna (7/5): Great location but a quite noisy - The location was amazing and everything was in great walking distance. Heater took a while to heat up but was warm. Tv was huge! The bedroom window was so thin and let in so much traffic and street noise which made it quite difficult to sleep even with earplugs.
• Gerard (9/5): Superb - The apartment itself is really close to the city centre (10min walk). It's really clean and comfortable, the kitchen is useful and has a lot of stuff. The temperature control is amazing too. The entrance to the apartment is shared with other rooms and someone leaves their shoes outside (they stink).
• Rosa (10/5): EDINBURGH A WONDERFUL CITY TO ENJOY, FULL OF CHARM AND VERY FRIENDLY LOCALS. - THE APARTMENT AS IN THE PICTURES CLEAN, COMFORTABLE AND WITH ALL KIND OF AMENITIES. THE HOST OFFERED US ALL KINDS OF EXPLANATIONS ON HOW TO GET TO THE FLAT AND EVEN GAVE US DIRECTIONS TO SERVICES SUCH AS SUPERMARKETS, ETC. COMMON AREAS WITH NEIGHBOURS AND BUILDING GENERAL ENTRANCE VERY DIRTY AND FULL OF SHOES. IT GAVE AN UNPLEASANT IMPRESSION.
• Jeff (9/5): Wonderful stay. Findlay was a terrific host—thoughtful and responsive. - The location of the apartment was great. Close to stores and transportation The bed was a little small.
• Lucy (10/5): Great place to stay! - Extremely helpful host, great location and comfortable apartment with everything we needed. Super easy access to public transport, bars, shops and a nice walk to the centre of Edinburgh. Washing service included with the accommodation was also fantastic!
• Anelise (7/5): Thank you for having us - The location was perfect We were only given half a roll of toilet paper for 4 days, and we tried to contact the host many times through email, calling and messaging with no answer. We were grateful that he let us store our luggage before check in (which is mentioned as an amenity) - but during that process made us feel like it was a hassle.
• Olivia (9/5): Superb - Spacious and great location Shower doesn’t drain
• Kate (10/5): Exactly what we wanted and more. Would certainly stay again. - Great location for us. And perfect size! Very cosy and clean.
• Luke (10/5): Exceptional -
• Giulia (6/5): Good location - Really close to the main spots in the city. The property wasn’t as clean as expected
• Elaine (8/5): Edinburgh is a really great destination. Fabulous Museum! - The location was good for what we wanted to do. There is a very good TV in the flat. We did a lot of walking so it was good to relax to our favourite programs in the evenings. The flat was great for our needs. Just the lead up surroundings. We did wonder quite where we were likely to end up. However, once we got inside the flat itself if was very good and we were very happy with the facilities provided.
• Austin (10/5): Exceptional - The host was very friendly when we picked up the key. They were also very responsive to questions we had during our stay. The flat was very nice, had good storage for our clothes and a comfy living area. The location was great to walk to bus stops or directly to sights in Edinburgh. Nothing.
• David (9/5): Superb -
• Tiiu (8/5): Great location, comfortable apartment. - Practical apartment with everything you need. Very clean and quiet. Good location , easy to walk to center of city and trainstation. Nice area to be after the intense tourist crowds.
• Emma (8/5): Very good - Very friendly and informative staff. The location and flat were excellent. I didn't stay long enough
• Shane (10/5): Exceptional -
• Krisztina (9/5): Superb - Very clean, nice apartment, well-equipped, Owner is flexible with late arrival, our relevant could pick-up the key instead of us. I suggest this place, we apent a week there.
• Joann (9/5): Superb -
• Glenn (10/5): Excellent stay all around - Made our own food or ate out
• Marina (10/5): Good stay - The location was very good. Only short walk (or bus ride) to city centre. There were many good restaurants nearby. Bed was comfortable, but there were only one blanket. Kitchen was great and most common kitchen utensils were available. Bathroom was tiny, but sufficient. We stayed 6 night comfortably. Living room carpet looked dirty.
• Emerson (7/5): Very well connected, amazing internal spacing. - The place is very close to the city center that made my journey very easy. Also connects with bus stations, supermarkets, restaurants and main roads. The internal space was incredible and the photos match. The towels and bed sheets were incredible clean. Sadly, it could have been a little bit cleaner. Our experience was a little bit annoying with that, finding hidden dirty spots here and there. We also had some issues with the plumbing system not working properly on the shower.
