Lovely flat in west end.

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.

Comfortable base to visit new Town and relax.

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.

Location is great. Apartment is spacious but many details need to be fixed.

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.

Lovely big and bright flat on the ground floor, handy for transport and Edinburgh centre

The location at the West End was perfect for buses and trams, close to everything I wanted. Access is easy, with only a couple of steps up from the street. The living room was bright and sunny, the bedroom comfortable and perfectly quiet at night. Cathy, the lady who greeted me was very welcoming and helpful. I really enjoyed my stay there.

I was not impressed with the standard of cleaning in the kitchen prior to my arrival, and the heating did not work for most of my stay. Communications from the hosts were not that helpful and the welcome book could be much improved (and left where it can be found).

Could be fabulous with a little more tlc

Location, spacious apartment

Lack of maintenance! Equipment needing repair - clasp on clothes dryer door, temperature regulator in washing machine, bypass toggle on shower, one element on cooktop. Not enough glasses, and horrid wine glasses. Hot water was very hot and without mixer taps, so difficult to use.

Well located flat which needs some tlc

The location is excellent. It was warm and clean and had a comfy bed. The staff were helpful

The flat is gloomy partly because it’s so badly lit. - just two dim bulbs hanging from the ceiling in the big sitting room so impossible to read when it gets dark. The washbasin in the small shower room measures c 8 x 5 inches! Some of the equipment e.g saucepans , cushions and crockery are old and shabby. The place needs an interior makeover
