Guest Reviews
- Maria Carmen (10/5): - El apartamento muy bien,las camas cómodas,el tercer dia nos cambiaron las sábanas y toallas, fuimos cinco personas y estuvimos muy bien Falta limpieza, la puerta de entrada te asusta un poco pero el apartamento muy bien
- Gavriil (9/5): Καλό - Ευρύχωρο, καθαρό και σχετικά κοντά στο κέντρο. Παλιό διαμέρισμα, θα μπορούσε να ήταν πιο προσεγμένο και πιο περιποιημένο.
2ος όροφος χωρίς ασανσέρ
- Sandra (8/5): FANTASTICO WEEK FUORI PORTA AD EDIMBURGO - POSIZIONE OTTIMALE IN 10 MINUTI A PIEDI SEI IN CENTRO MOLTO COMODO , APPARTAMENTO SPAZIOSO UNICA COSA LA CUCINA POTEVA ESSERE UN PO' PIU' FORNITA DI ATTREZZATURA X MANGIARE E PROVVISTA DELLE COSE BASILARE COME LO SCOTTEX , IL SALE, OLIO E BUSTINE X TE E CAFFE CHE NON VI ERA NULLA DI TUTTO CIO' . NIENTE DI GRAVE PERO' ESSENDO UN APPARTAMENTO DA 5/6 PERSONE ANCHE LE PENTOLE ERANO PICCOLE X CUCINARE X CUI DOVEVI FARE PIU' COTTURE MA CI SIAMO ADATTATI ESSENDO STATI POCHI GIORNI . HOST GENTILISSIMO . NULLA IN PARTICOLARE SE DEVO PROPRIO TROVARE QUALCOSA LE SCALE X ARRIVARE ALL'APPARTAMENTO CHE SI TROVA LA SECONDO PIANO
- Alexandre (8/5): -
- Anna (6/5): - Privacy a d distance to attractions Beds and kitchen
- Scott (6/5): -
- Carmen (7/5): - Amazing location. Walking distance to Edinburgh Castle. Local codes, groceries and restaurants as well. The double bed was in the triple room, with kids it would be better to have a double bed in the smaller room and the singles all together. I would also recommend a black out shade because the street lamp shines right outside the window.
- Cristian (7/5): -
- Francisco Antonio (7/5): -
- MEHMET (9/5): - Çok yakın heeyere Royal miyla yürüyerek 10 dakika
- Janine (9/5): Heerlijk warm - De verwarming was al heerlijk aangezet toen we aankwamen. Alles zag er netjes uit en schoon uit.
En een vriendelijke man kwam de sleutel brengen en alles even uitleggen..
- MUGAYAR (10/5): -
- Barbara (9/5): - Tutto . Vacanza bellissima
- Karolina (9/5): -
- Giancarlo (9/5): Soggiorno piacevole e ricco di zone di interessi. - Zona molto servita da vari autobus e ben fornita di locali e supermercato.
- Tukiendorf (4/5): -
- Thomas (7/5): -
- Yasin (8/5): Çok rahattı - Konumu Apartman girişi biraz eski
- Andrea (8/5): -
- Arturs (9/5): -
- Dan (9/5): Absolutely perfect from start to finish. - The apartment was situated in a really good place with the grassmarket, the castle and victoria street with many things Harry Potter a short walk away (around 15min) and the meadow with it’s beautiful green spaces basically around the corner.
It was also surrounded by restaurants with the closest being right under the apartment.
We also found Scott co-op close by to buy breakfast, sun screen, deodorant and other necessities to use in the apartment. We only had 1 set of keys which made it a bit challenging to plan the day when a few people played golf and others wanted to see the sights.
But that’s the only negative aspect about this apartment.
- Ciara (7/5): We stayed for 3 nights, reasonable value for money if you want a place not too far from Old town. - Close to center and transportation. Its not modern but well kept. They have basic facilities like stove and fridge and some kitchenware No elevator we have to use the stairs, it wont be a problem but only if you are travelling with senior or disabled
- Glorigen (8/5): Fair - Properly is quite bright and spacious and close to shops which I like. Property needs a deep cleaning especially inside microwave. Bathroom kitchen , walls and rugs need a professional cleaning. And there was no oven toaster and no bathroom rugs.
- Inese (8/5): Great location, clean appartment. Would definitely choose again - Great location. Very good price for the stay. Complaint about shower, the water pressure could have been higher
- Ovsyannikov (7/5): Good -
- Ruth (8/5): Very good -
- Lesley (10/5): Exceptional - Location and size
- Aleksandra (9/5): Superb -
- Lenka (7/5): Good - Great location, walkable distance to the city center. Spacious apartment, comfy beds, not much noise from the street. The houst was flexible regarding our checkin time. In general, the apartment was clean, but the k
itchen and dishes were dirty.
- Adrian (6/5): Lovely host needs to keep a closer eye on the above - Clean, neat and tidy Maintenance on everyday facilities -
Virgin Media Remote (get a new one)
Shower (awful)
Tea towels (none)
Bath plug (none)
- Évelin (8/5): Cozy! You feel at home. - Good location, with restaurants, cafes and supermarkets close to the accommodation. Only the place in front is under construction, so it became a little noisy. But I believe it will be temporary.
- Tracey (7/5): Had an enjoyable stay, managers really helpful & allowed us to check in early & I am sure if we had made them aw - Location was good, staff helpful, bedding clean, nice size. No toaster, no tea towel, no washing up liquid, no plug for sink in bathroom or bath, leather sofa needed a good clean/wipe down, bits in between cushions & so did the dining room chairs. Smelt of cigarette smoke but think this was from other tenants and it permeates through. Booking said parking for one unit, was no parking available, advised to park Lemington terrace but road closed & it was 1/2 Mile away.
- Tomaszbb (10/5): Exceptional - Very friendly and helpful owner. Large flat: two bedrooms, kitchen (with basic appliances), dining room, bathroom, hallway. In addition to the British also USB sockets. Very comfortable beds, clean, possibility to leave luggage after check-out. Very good location - walking distance from the city center, nearby grocery shops open until late at night. Warm enough (the owner showed us how to adjust the heating to our own needs), only slight problem with the temperature in the bathroom (due to the large, not very airtight windows) Only very small remarks: it should be noted that it is a stylish old house - so there is no lift and luggage must be brought to the second floor. The kitchen has basic equipment - the most necessary appliances are there, but there is no toaster, for example. For example, there is no dishwashing liquid (thanks to the comments of previous guests, we knew about it and supplied it in advance) or paper towels. There are no hangers in the bathroom (but this is a fairly common shortcoming). The bedside lamps did not shine or gave very moderate light.
- Loh (1/5): Felt that this was not worth our money - Nothing My family and I stayed there for 4 nights, waiting to leave early, high floor ,no lift, only one toilet for 5 guests , soap and shampoo not provided, room and staircase have smell, not worth the for how much we paid of the stay. Furthermore, the floor of the front door had dog poo on them.
- Deirdre (5/5): Even with the heating on the bathroom was freezing due to the windows - The location was very central and easy to get to all the attractions I must say the windows in the property could do with being replaced. The noise coming from the street keep us up most of the night and there was also a lot of draft coming in the windows too. This was the most disappointing thing about our trip. Would definitely need ear plugs
- Neringa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sinead (10/5): Our stay was perfect, very central and close to all amenities and the attractions - Clean , rooms lovely and spacious, nice little kitchen and living area, bathroom clean and no problems I think the entrance area could do with a little fresh paint for first appearances, as it’s very run down looking, and I didn’t know what to expect from the apartment after seeing the entrance, but we were pleasantly surprised
- Hussain (8/5): Very good -
- Paul (10/5): brilliant, lovely host! -
- Deniz (4/5): Overpriced for amenities/quality provided. - Location was good Uncomfortable furniture (couch/beds) Kitchen substandard, bathroom tight. The couch was particularly uncomfortable. Guests should be given 2 sets of keys. Kitchen needs sognificant improvement. Shower leaves much to be desired.
- Gakhar (1/5): DO NOT STAY here unless absolutely necessary. - The gentleman dealing with the reservation was very nice. He allowed us to keep the luggage in the apartment before checkin as it was very difficult to go around with so much luggage. The state and condition of the apartment is very poor, not at all worthy of the price tag. The linens were not clean enough. The old and used towels and beddings were kept in the home which smelled really bad.
The bathroom was awful, the glass on the bathroom door is almost transparent and can see what’s going on inside easily.
- Daniela (8/5): Very good accommodation,we shall come back. - It was a very large apartment and the kitchen was well furnished.The beds were very comfortable and the bedding very clean. The tv cable didn t work and we couldn t connect to the wi-fi.
- Rozinah (8/5): Happy stay in Menzies - The location- very convenient place to look for food, shopping and walking distance to Edinburgh Castle etc. friendly & nice host, the cosy apartment. The host came all the way to help us to book/get grab/transport to the airport. Since we have problem with our Grab apps. The walk- up stairs. Only when you carry big luggage...but we managed. Should have expected that since it is in historical/"old" ,building
- Rajneesh (5/5): Passable - Location was good Things were not in working conditions no soap or shampoo were provided
- Julian (8/5): Very good -
- Melissa (7/5): Nice place for visit if you need space - Tall ceilings, good location, friendly check in It’s two flights of stairs to get to the apartment, not super convenient with luggage. The blow dryer didn’t work and it’s a bit dated.
- Abdoulhadi (10/5): Exceptional -
- John (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was very spacious and well lighten. Very close to the old town and to restaurant.The owner was very very helpful any time of the day. Highly recommend this apartment for short and long stay.
- Nathalya (8/5): Very good -
- Nirjhar (4/5): Disappointing -
- Dori (10/5): Exceptional - Hosts were very nice and extremely welcoming. Although we arrived late for check-in, Mr Hazim was kind and understanding. He was also very helpful post check-out where he made sure our stuff were kept safe by the time we had to leave for the train. Many thanks to Mr Hazim
- Michal (10/5): Exceptional - Clean place in a perfect spot. exactly what we needed.
- Fiona (10/5): Exceptional -
- Todd (5/5): Good price for minimalist lodging. - The location is very near old town and lots of shops and restaurants. Walk anywhere easily. Best breakfast is across the street.
The rooms are big and have lots of daylight.
Some Plugs have USB interface The kitchen is poorly appointed.
No toaster or coffee maker. Dull knives and no condiments ( salt pepper oil) (Very kind host brought knives and a spatula upon request)
No prep stuff like measuring cups.
Location is very noisy all day and in any season. Two blocks from a fire station = siren every few minutes 24/7. Thin windows bring all the local bar scene into your rooms.
Lighting is poor in the bedrooms. No alarm clocks.
- Priyanshi (10/5): Excellent - Its very centrally located, lots to do around. The building is old but the flat is refurbished and gives a nice antique feeling. The host is a reallyyy nice, helpful and a kind man. The flat is really spacious, felt just like home.
- David (4/5): for what we were charged it was very expensive. - not a bad location. still a bit of a walk to the centre though it was very basic
- Jaco (8/5): Really enjoy - House look cozy and well decorated
- Mary (9/5): Superb -
- Clare (5/5): Passable - Great location and very easy to walk into the centre Kitchen equipment was very basic
- Ondřej (9/5): Superb - Location. Large Apt. Close to old town. Friendly host
- Odarka (8/5): Nice stay for a family - Close to city center, restaurants and points of interest ...
- Ian (8/5): Good quality flat with good facilities. Not inexpensive but reasonable value for money. - No breakfast expected. Location very good, but on second floor without elevator. Allowed early check in after a long flight. However we had to vacate property at 10am sharp.
- Nur (9/5): pleasant - accommodating owner
- Oliwia (7/5): good value for money, strongly recommended for bigger groups - good location, close to the shops and bakeries, the owner of the property was really friendly it was a bit dirty, the shower had a really low pressure, nearly impossible to wash your head, there could be adapters for travellers from Europe
- Anonymous (8/5): Very good -
- Janice (8/5): Very good -
- Andrew (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent host.very clean. Great location. Nothing. Everything was perfect
- Victoria (7/5): Cheap apartment very central location - The location is amazing and for a one night stay it is cheap and in a very central location walking distance to everything. The windows didn't shut fully, as it's on a busy street where all sounds and smells can and did come in. Shower was also very poor. Some of the towels were not clean.
- Faye (9/5): Superb - Bright, clean and spacious. Good location, 10 minutes walk to Grassmarket.
The host text us at 1pm to say we could check in early. No complaints, however Edinburgh is noisy at night!
Luckily my ear buds were packed!
- Nicola (9/5): great - brilliant location want a
noises area didn’t have cleaning product to tidy up or wash dishes
would have been nice to have an iron and ironing table
