Guest Reviews

• Mercè (7/5): Céntrico - Su localización La entrada del apartamento y se oía mucho ruido del bar de abajo
• Oskar (7/5): - Den centrala placeringen
• Catherine (1/5): Beaucoup trop cher pour la prestation - L’emplacement est très bien Pas de lumière dans une des deux chambres et pas de geste commercial, l’appartement est au dessus d’un bar et il n’y a pas d’isolation phonique donc nuit très écourtée , les placards de la cuisine étaient sales
• Elena (10/5): - Molto centrale ben arredata e spaziosa Tanti scalini per arrivarci
• Begüm Nurdan (9/5): - Konumu çok iyi merkezde heryere yürüme mesafesinde çok temiz evde herşey mevcut tek olumsuzu asansör yok
• Casey (7/5): - Property was exceptional. Only issue is the shower was not very powerful

• André (8/5): -
• Caroline (6/5): Prima plek voor een stadsbezoek. - De locatie Best duur en had echt wel een update nodig.
• Nicole (8/5): - 民宿位置超棒，厨房设备齐全，离景点很近，购物也很方便。 楼下是餐厅酒吧，晚上略有些吵。民宿是老式的房子，没有电梯所以对于带大件行李或者行动不便人士不太合适
• andrijana (5/5): - Location Very poor internet signal, hallway has a funky smell, intercom does not work so if you're a group someone has to go downstairs to let you in.
• Diego C. (8/5): -
• Elisa (6/5): Välttävä majoittuminen hyvällä sijainnilla. - Sijainti ja keittiö Suihku ei toiminut eli siitä ei tullut ollenkaan vettä. Kuvat bookingissa eivät vastanneet asunnon kuntoa (kuvat olivat eri huoneistosta). Sängyt oli pedattu vain 5 ihmiselle vaikka varaus oli kuudelle. Rappukäytävässä tupakointiin ja siellä oli hiiri.
• Carmen (5/5): -
• Aimee (9/5): - Our apartment had an issue so we got upgraded and had an amazing stay!!
• Laura (7/5): - La ubicación Un poco de ruido del exterior
• Norris Kent (8/5): - Room 3&4 were nice, big and clean for 11 people STAIRS, since there were no lift, it was kinda tiring
• Carmelo (8/5): -
• Giovanetti (4/5): Buona posizione ma troppo caro per quello che offre - Posizione Prenotato per 5 e non era stato preparato il quinto letto, molte attrezzature di cucina non funzionavano mollate prese elettriche non funzionanti. Letti scomodi, bagno al limite dell’utilizzo
• Jaison Daniel (7/5): Good for traveller's with less or no luggage - The amenities and the hall appearance No lift, and top floor, very difficult to get 3 big luggage(20kg each) on the circle stairs to room
• Kateryna (10/5): -
• Enikő (8/5): -
• Koreen (9/5): Great location close to everything - The apartment was spacious modern and clean and in a great location The beds were uncomfy due to hard mattress
• Harry (9/5): -
• Nino (6/5): -
• Kirsty (10/5): Great central location! - Spacious rooms and had what we needed for an overnight stay in Edinburgh.
• Chris (10/5): -
• Zuzana (7/5): - It's actually a very nice apartment, in a nice location, with a beautiful view of a small square in the historic center. It has two small bedrooms with comfortable beds. The kitchen equipment was sufficient. The apartment was warm enough. Incredible noise at night, couldn't sleep until 4am. We didn't believe the previous reviews where this was mentioned. We were hoping it would be quieter in winter and on weekdays. Hot water only in the shower. Washbasin and sink with cold water only. The couch was unsuitable for sleeping. Slatted, uneven, hard. The noise at night was the biggest problem.
• mumu 38 (7/5): correct pour un séjour - l'emplacement est vraiment appréciable. l'indépendance. certes, il y avait du bruit dans la rue, mais c'est écrit. il n'y avait qu'une chambre et un canapé convertible, mais c'était écrit. il y a du café et du thé disponible. nous aurions payé le prix normal, j'aurais mis une note plus élevée. mais la majoration me semblait vraiment excessive. le prix était plus élevé qu'à l'habitude du fait de la demande en lien avec le match du tournois des 6 nations. il n'y a vraiment pas beaucoup de pression à la douche
• Pascal (8/5): -
• Marco (9/5): -
• Jilu (1/5): Bedbug infested with a weird landlord! - NONE If you want to stay in a room full of bed bugs and deal with an impolite and irresponsible host, go ahead and book this place. Otherwise, stay FAR AWAY. We found multiple bed bugs crawling on the beds in multiple rooms. When we reported it, the host saw the bugs with his own eyes, but instead of taking responsibility, he crushed one and said, “Nothing but an ash!” He completely denied the issue. To make it worse, he told us to leave immediately and refused to give any refund, leaving us stranded without proper accommodation. Not only is this place infested, but the host is also shockingly unprofessional and disrespectful and insane enough to crush bedbugs between his fingers. This was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Avoid this listing at all costs. DO NOT BOOK THIS APARTMENT!!
• jackie (6/5): - Good location Situated next to a pub so very noisy outside. Steep stairs
• Kate (5/5): Fantastic location but average facilities / sleeping situation - Located in the heart of the old town, it was easy to walk around and explore the beautiful city and many surrounding dining options. It felt authentic climbing the stairs and staying in an old building. It was a tidy enough apartment that would have been comfortable for two single travellers with access to a small kitchen, fridge and living area. The advertisement failed to acknowledge the steep and exhausting flights of stairs up to the apartments on the very top floor. I’d booked for 4 adults and arrived in a room with only two made up single beds. Upon messaging the contact, I was directed to find bedding in the wardrobe for a DIY bed - unprofessional and slack considering the price paid for FOUR ADULTS. When folding down the futon, the crease was lined with crumbs and other dirt. Yuck! One of the twin beds in the room had questionable stains on the lower frame and the mattresses sagged in the middle. The toilet felt unstable to sit on and the shower drain cap wasn’t locked in either. There were a number of small service / cleanliness changes that could have been made to improve this accommodation.
• Anna (6/5): It was fine. Would be better for a weekend away rather than European travel because of luggage requi - The pizza place to collect key was right around the corner. Had to wait a bit after I called them. Would be better if the amount of twisty stairs was shared rather than no lift. Light bulbs need to be installed. A fan needs to be included for the hot days. No circulation of air!
• Stephen (7/5): - Location was great, apartment could do woth a bit of modernising
• Terri (10/5): -
• Emma (8/5): - Great location, did have two bars underneath though noise from these wasn’t an issue. Was more the noise from bus stops on window outside. We had a family of 7 staying with 4 adults and had more room than I was expecting. Any issues were responded to and dealt with quickly. More things for cooking in kitchen would be helpful.
• Borgacci (8/5): -
• Toynton (8/5): -
• Ricardo (3/5): In the Center but not confortable and too noisy. - Instructions were Accurate and easy to follow to pick up the keys. The person who gave us the key was friendly and quick. Lots of shops around to buy groceries or food. The flat is on the 4th floor with no lift, which can be very tiring after a full day of sightseeing, especially if you need to carry a stroller every time you go out or come back. There is a pub below the property, and the noise can be quite loud until late at night; on one occasion it continued until 4 a.m., and our baby kept waking up. It would be helpful to mention that there are many stairs from the station if you go via Market Street, or to indicate the best route for families traveling with luggage and a pushchair. I requested a high chair but did not receive it. I also tried to contact the owner through the app, but never received a reply.

• Cojan (1/5): -
• kylie (6/5): Great location, average apartment - Location is fantastic, right on Royal mile. Shower wasn’t great, no water pressure. WiFi was very slow. Apartment generally needs updating.
• Amy (8/5): The location is either the positive or negative - Brilliant location. You are right in the middle of the Royal Mile. Everything is on the door step. The apartment was easy to find. I was pleasantly surprised walking in, smelt fresh and the floor was freshly mopped. Two small double rooms made up with bedding and towels laid out, wardrobe and bedside table. Living room area with two sofa beds and dining table and TV on the wall. A nice bathroom with shower, sink and toilet. Toiletries -soap, shampoo and conditioner, toilet rolls. Kitchen with fridge, cooker, kettle, microwave. Tea ,coffee, milk provided. Everything there for our nights stay. Lovely. The was steps up to the apartment which was ok for us but if I'd had brought my father who is in his 70's, I think he wouldn't have managed them. The apartment was above a pub, so its quite noisy on an evening. My daughter managed to sleep through the noise but I was a little restless, being woken by the people on the street and the pub etc.
• Mitchell-hall (8/5): -
• Ventin (9/5): - The place is located really close to the royal mile area. The whole apartment is clean and cozy. It was quite disturbed with noises from the street (but understandable as to how close it is from the main tourist area). It was also difficult to get the internet connection.
• Cristina (5/5): Imposible dormir. - Su ubicación, al lado de la Royal Mile. Está encima de pubs. Está toda la noche la calle llena de gente bebiendo, cantando, orinando en la acera...fue un horror poder dormir. Los pubs abren hasta las 5 de la mañana y luego la gente se queda bebiendo en la calle. Imposible dormir. Las ventanas no están insonorizadas y se oye todo.
• Rivera (8/5): - I really like the unit it is clean and location is perfect it is near tourist spots,however there is no lift so you have to carry your luggages via stairs.But overall it is nice
• Nick (7/5): -
• Rebecca (9/5): - Location, price and facilities superb. Will definitely stay again. Very noisy street.
• chittamas (5/5): - Tool loud in night that make me cant sleep because hotel locate near pub and bars . Hotel dont have escalators , i have big luggage it so heavy to move it to my room
• Steven (5/5): - Wobbly toilet, fold out sofa beds were not proper beds just cheap lounges. Couldn’t sleep on them. Wobbly dining chairs, dining table was just a camp table with plastic table cloth. Plus more.
• Sabate robert (10/5): -
• Nikky (7/5): - Excellent location being very central. Short walk from waverly train station. Could have been cleaner. Shower wasn't great with it being very low pressure.
• Scott (8/5): Perfect for our annual get together - Great location. Staff very accommodating and polite.
• Martina (7/5): - Posizione centrale e pulizia ottima La sera essendo in centro c’è molta confusione fino alle ore 3 di notte circa perché al di sotto c’è un pub
• Sergio (7/5): - La ubicación El ruído de la calle. El alojamiento está encima de varios bares y cuando cierran a las 3am, hay mucho ruido de gente saliendo.
• Fabiano (8/5): - La posizione è meravigliosa. Dal soggiorno si ha una vista stupenda sulla città vecchia. Le camere danno su una via secondaria, dove si trova una discoteca, diciamo che sarebbero utili delle finestre più isolanti.
• Cristina (8/5): -
• Wood (7/5): - Great location, just off the royal mile. Perfect for city centre exploring. Good size apartment and comfy for larger groups. Both doors, outside and flat, get stuck easy and required some fiddling
• André (9/5): - Perfect location, in the heart of Edinburgh,all highlights of the city close by
• Joseph Walter (10/5): Near but steep - The location The stairs
• Evelyn (8/5): -
• Camille (7/5): Agréable - La situation géographique est impeccable et l’appartement est spacieux et propre. Il est au dessus d’un bar, nous avons entendu du bruit jusque tard la nuit …ce n’était pas si dérangeant mais si vous cherchez le calme absolu il faut éviter. C’est du simple vitrage donc il fait assez froid, les petits chauffages électriques ne suffisent pas toujours. Le sèche cheveux ne fonctionne pas et la télé non plus car connexion très lente au wifi.
• Ran (7/5): - The location is next to none, good facilities, apartment is clean People slamming the doors and our apartment door and floor is shaking, this happenend a few times pretty late in the evening, strong smoke smell from the corridor I'm convinced someone was smoking inside the building or in the corridor as we're on the top floor, apartment has strong and unpleasant air fresher smell upon enter and it only started to fade away from next morning, lots of stairs didn't bother me but for people with suitcases or bad knees it would be a problem
• Jen (8/5): - Great location Clean Lots of stairs 🤣😁🤣 lots and lots 😜. Definitely made you confirm you had everything you wanted from the flat before leaving !!! Or that you had done everything you wanted in the city before returning 😁 A slight criticism was lack of hot water in the kitchenette, lack of water pressure in the shower but understandable as we were very high up Check in was a bit weird -going to pizzeria to collect keys and paperwork - but worked. The television had netflix etc but the signal was so poor you couldn't watch anything on any service Most of the doors were fire doors and slammed shut. The building was quite noisy with people coming and going. Lots of loud arguments in the stairwell around 5 in the morning
• LO (10/5): Super - L’emplacement la literie confortable. L’appartement est très bien. Les marches des escaliers sont une aventure avec une valise. Et la porte du bas est difficile à ouvrir mais ce n’est vraiment pas grave comparé à tout ce qui est bien.
• Andrew (10/5): Exactly what we needed for a one night stay. Easy to find, great location - Location awesome Facilities perfect
• Mario (9/5): - Ubicación
• Slavina (10/5): -
• Lledó (8/5): -
• Shivam (5/5): Location is central but the place is shoddy - Location is central The shower was broken, the sofa bed was very uncomfortable and the water heating system did not work
• andres (2/5): - location disgusting entrance, bins full of rubbish from the Italian restaurant where you have to pick. up the keys from... smelly and dirty staircase full of bags of dirty bed sheets were you can hardly walk up or down, specially when carrying your luggage. staff from the same restaurant were having their break on the steps, smoking and having dinner right there... the hole place felt very unhealthy... after that night, me and my mom have been getting weird itchi bumps on out skin. honestly the worst deal i could ever imagine, specially for the price we payed.
• ERIC13000 (7/5): Good spot, right in the heart of the social action. - The apt is very well located right in the middle of the action. The beds were comfortable and the shower was warm with good pressure. The walk up stairs were tiring, not recommended for some people.
• Amanda (3/5): Demasiado ruidoso y poco limpio - La ubicación, se encuentra en el centro de la Royal Mile. La limpieza dejaba mucho que desear, especialmente en el baño. La televisión no funcionaba. Lo peor fue el ruido que provenía del pub de abajo, imposible dormir hasta las 2-3 am. No hemos descansado apenas.
• Idris (8/5): Fair - Great location and access to everything. Mostly everything available in the apartment. Very long painful stairs, the windows are not closing properly ( old buildings) cold noisy we couldn’t sleep for 2 nights as you can hear people talking in the street and bars. The entrance always busy with people coming out of pubs and smoking weed and blocking the door.
• Adeline (5/5): Très bonne emplacement mais la qualité de certains éléments est à revoir pour être autop - Emplacement parfait Le couchage du salon n’est vraiment pas confortable. 2 banquettes à revoir. Quand on propose pour 4 personnes la qualité du couchage devrait être quasi équivalente pour tous le monde. Il faut changer le pommeau de douche qui est cassé et zéro pression d’eau. La porte de la douche fuie. Et la poignée entre l’entrée et le salon est à réparer. Pour le prix cela faisait beaucoup de désagrément !
• Tiffany (8/5): -
• sandra (7/5): Great location but need to be fit enough to tackle the stairs - Location. Good shower. A lot of stairs and not clear instructions how to gain access was sent an email which they insisted had details on it I can assure you it did not
• Christiana (10/5): Amazing - Location location location! It was perfect right on the royal mile could not be beat! Nothing it was perfect!
• Joshua (2/5): - We never got to stay in the apartment because we couldn't safely get to it. We were informed on the Expedia page that it would be a first-floor apartment. This was not true. The apartment was on the fourth floor (which is fifth floor in the US). The stairs were dangerous and unsafe. The alleyway was next to several bars and smelled of urine, cigarettes, vomit, and old alcohol that had probably been poured out. My wife is mobility challenged and when I asked the management company (which had offices in some pizza parlor) for another option, we were told that our complaint was not valid, that no other options were available, and that we should talk to Expedia. Expedia said that the number I provided, which they gave me in the office to pick up the keys, was disconnected. Don't rent here unless you're able bodied and sober because those stairs are going to be lethal some day.
• Konrad (9/5): - Great location. Close to everything, even though we arrived late at night, we were able to pick up the keys to the apartment. I recommend it :)
• Fred (8/5): - The street apartments are for people that are flexible and mobile and who do not have any allergies to cigarettes in a common space. The private space was clean, Only 1 outlet per bedroom. Loooved the apartment layout space and amenities. Outside street noise was as expected being over a bar but ONLY 60 feet from The Royal mile. INCLEDIBLE location, 25/10, would stay again. There’s no elevator here and so it’s just a spiral staircase. There are smoking and cigarette butts that litter the staircase AFTER hours, and that was absolutely disgusting. When we arrive at 11 PM, whoever was cleaning the first floor of the building was smoking in the hallway as they were cleaning and that was absolutely disgusting. There were ashtrays seated on the steps as we would come in and out throughout the night because people from all different levels would smoke in the staircase and that was absolutely gross. My father had a mobility scooter and The host was super gracious and very kind and allowed us to park inside of the entrance it was only about a 4 x 6’ square area and we had to maneuver, trash cans around to get his scooter to fit. The scooter absolutely fit, but we did have to raise it about 8 inches over the threshold every night, which for us was not a problem.
• Beatrice (9/5): - Le logement est très bien placé
• Raymond (4/5): - Stair is too narrow, if big luggage very difficult to go up
• Heather Mary (5/5): - Ok location Too many stairs with only 1 key between us. Not worth what we paid for.
• Howard (4/5): Scotland visit with friends - Location was handy to our transportation. Manager was responsive to our questions The listing did not state that there were 74 steps to the apartment and that they included a spiral staircase. We are 75 years old, and it was no easy task to haul suitcases up and down. There was no place for 3 people to sit to eat, and there was no fire extinguisher. The partiers in the street were quite loud til 2 am on a Wednesday, and the skylights seemed to leak air as well as the noise . The inside doorknob fell apart when we tried to close it at bedtime.
• Emma (10/5): -
• heydeenie (6/5): 79 stairs to flat #5. Be warned. - lovely flat, close to where I needed to be. Should have been much easier to find and check in. So fortunate I rented a car, since most of our luggage needed to remain in it. Should have been warned that there were 79 stairs to get to our flat. We were with my 80 year old mother. I feel very sorry for a couple with a baby, who may experience same issue. No one made ANY attempt to resolve this issue. As clean (just ok, really, some yucky marks on the couch) the flat truly is nice and big. People smoked in the hallway. The fact that no one made a single effort to move us to a lower flat (we were supposed to be in 3, got switched to 5) I can't warn people enough to stay away.
• Joshua (3/5): Never again, even with the great location. Glad it was only one night. - The location is perfect and it was really nice to have a washing machine and a fan. The room was ready a bit early which was nice. From the previous reviews, I expected it to be a bit rundown, but the bathroom was disgusting. The washing machine was full of mold and mildew. We booked a room with a queen bed and got two twin beds instead. The absolute WORST was that there were workers from the restaurant smoking in the stairwell ALL night. Not only did we have to walk through it, the smell permeated the apartment upstairs. I have asthma and we have two small children with us, it was just terrible. They tried to cover it up when we first arrived with a very strong fragrance spray.
• Thomas (6/5): Overall we enjoyed the apartment and the location was great. - Location! Too many stairs and only one bed. The room booked said it had two beds.
• Michael (4/5): - Location Not much worked properly
• EVELYNE (1/5): A fuir absolument !!!!! - L emplacement mais bruyant+++++ A fuir absolument. Aucune isolation, les fenêtres ne peuvent être fermées et on voit l extérieur ! Fils électriques radiateurs quasi dénudés, papier mural arraché, sol salle de bain non stable, meuble sous lavabo salle de bain pourri , lustres et barres à rideau mal fixées . Tout cela est dangereux , Comment peut on louer un tel hébergement à ce prix? Les photos ne correspondent pas vraiment à la réalité!!! Nous avons passé 2 nuits à 7 jours d intervalle ds 2 appartements différents et le constat est le même!!!!
• Marasovic (8/5): -
• Lucía (7/5): - La localización. Mucho ruido, las ventanas no cerraban y se escuchaba todo de la calle a todas horas.
