Melville Street Apartment

Love the huge living room as I can invite many in my family for apéritifs. Love the large bedroom. Bed is comfy.

The toilet is too low for me. The fan in the bathroom seems likely to stop working. The linoléum needs replacing or scrubbing, it's very dirty.

The ground floor flat is easily accessible, and located a few steps from the Haymarket station. An easy walk both to Old and New Town, to the Walk of Leith, to the Modern art galleries, to buses and train connections. Very convenient for our purposes. Plenty of good restaurants and shops in the area.

We managed to avoid the hefty surcharge for a late check-in (40 pounds after 10 pm, read the fine print) but we had to wait for the person in charge of opening the flat. Explanations were cursory to say the least. The bedroom is quite comfortable, the kitchen is well provided but without a table, and the sitting room is grandiose with two sofas. The bathroom is really tiny, and the basin is smaller than an A4 paper sheet. The area is very quiet at night, during the day you can hear the nursery nearby, which did not bother us, but there can be quite some screaming. Good wifi.

The location is great Apartment is spacious Great windows It has washer and dryer

The prices you see is for two people, although the apartment is for four people (one bed, one sofa bed). They charge separate for each person £30 a night plus £40 linen and towel fee. We got discount to £15 a night per person. They send you a link that asks you to enter your credit card number and they charge you separate than booking.com They charged us $325 deposit for 4 nights as well. The mattress for the sofa bed is so bad, it is impossible to sleep on it and wake up without a backache. They charged us £100 for it. The lighting in the living room is not enough. One of the ceiling lamps was broken, we asked them to change it, no one came to change it during our 4 nights stay although they promised to change it. The Kitchen was not clean. The floor was sticky. Washer worked but dryer’s door did not close so we had to put the bin next to it to keep the hatch closed. The water pressure for the sink in the restroom is very low and the sink is the smallest I have ever seen. Difficult to use.

La posizione è ottima, vicino al centro e ben servita dagli autobus.

Il bagno ha un lavandino piccolissimo e molto scomodo, gli utensili della cucina erano usurati e sporchi. In tutti i bicchieri era visibile l'alone delle labbra, e le posate erano sporche di cibo.
