Beautiful, spacious flat right in the centre of Edinburgh.
Bit of a rip off to have to pay £26 extra for linen for the sofa bed. Also needs more bin bags if the ask is to take out the bins before checking out (we only had one).

It was a very spacious and beautiful property with super high ceilings and elegant decor. Staying in the apartment felt extremely satisfying and the apartment had everything one needs to chill :)
There was a light in the washroom that made really loud noise when turned on.

Excellent location in the new town. Close to Stockbridge and the west end. Spacious typical new town apartment in good condition.
Minor things, broken bathroom window, non functioning gas fireplace (would have been nice to use in the evening with the cold weather).
8.0 / 10.0
Really spacious apartment, comfy beds, quiet neighbourhood, and only 10 mins walk to restaurants. The flat itself was clean and tidy, with decent furniture. It was nice they left tea, coffee & biscuits for us.
The shared stairwell had no light, so you had to use your phone as a torch to get up the stairs - this wouldn't be suitable for older people. The stairs were also pretty dirty - covered in dog hair etc.
10.0 / 10.0
The flat is beautiful. High ceilings, excellent and comfortable furniture, good amplespaces, great views to private gardens to the back and to green parks and to the city to the front. Great kitchen, good equipment and well stocked (dishes, cutlery, tools, etc). Bathroom worked fine and had enough space. The building and staircase also very nice. Great and quiet surroundings. The best.
Dishes left in the dishwasher were dirty, with food scraps. Somebody forgot to check

Spacious apartment with fantastic views; good location for walking to sights, transit, and restaurants.
Check-in is scheduled for 15:00 (we arrived at 14:00) but we couldn’t check in until 15:30 due to a delayed cleaning crew (minor inconvenience). However, when I reached out to the management, they suggested I try the apartment buzzer and, following their instructions, I ended up buzzing one of the neighbors, who, I am sure, did not appreciate the intrusion. On the day of our check-out I received a call from management inquiring if we were able to finally get in to the apartment. Also, for $350/night I would expect the place to be immaculate. It was not. The kids loved the place.

oven: not working! bizarrely a new one was waiting in a cupboard.
hot water? not working. we had to fix ourselves
keys? stuck in the flat! we had to call a friend to help us because we were in a hurry and you were very long!
the only thing you offer was to come when we where not home!
according to the price we were expecting a really high standard! and it was not!

The location was good and it was very quiet. The apartment was very well equipped.
Would rather have a standalone shower instead of over the bath

Perfect, quiet location. 2 minute walk from Stockbridge and 15 minutes from Princess Street. It really is in an ideal spot, Stockbridge has lots of shops and places to eat and is very easily reached. Also within easy reach of Princess Street. We would definitely stay here again. A problem with the boiler was quickly solved.
Clean on the surface but Not as clean as it should have been. 2 lolly sticks and a lot of crumbs under the sofa cushions. Dirty hand and finger prints on doors and walls, layers of dust on picture frames and skirting boards. Beds should be pulled out and vacuumed behind. Curtain linings in both bedrooms in shreds and curtain pulls don’t run well. I cleaned the doors and wall and vacuumed the sofa and chairs, it was cleaner when we left than when we arrived. No facility for hanging clothes in the front bedroom just one hanger on the back of the door. We moved a coat stand into there which made do. Information on emptying bins at the end of the stay was not clear. It referred to a communal bin in the street outside but there wasn’t one so we tied the bin bag up and left it in the kitchen.

Excellent location. Great apartment with huge potential if the points raised below are addressed. Very comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you.
Although not vital, the curtains are all very tired and difficult to close. The bathroom sink was badly cracked prior to our arrival and bathroom floor tiles are very old and dirty and really should be replaced to up scale the apartment.

Beautiful and amazing location, will definitely look at booking again
Could have been cleaner underneath the furniture and cusions etc, found quite a few ‘artefacts’ from visitors past.
Having only one towel each was a little limiting.

Stayed 3 nights at this apartment. The location is great. 3 mins walk to the local town Stockbridge, which has all the shops, cafes etc, so lovely. It’s about 25 mins walk to all the major sites. Some nights we got taxi home, only about 7 pounds in a blackcap or £5 something by Uber. The view from the apartment is great. I loved sitting in front of the big window having my morning coffee. The apartment is really spacious and clean, grand but still thoughtfully decorated. Kitchen is also spacious, has everything we need, and good quality utensils. Bedrooms are comfortable, again spacious. All in all it’s really great for us a family of four. The lock did break on the second day but the staff arrived quickly on call and gave us a different set of keys which solved the problem. She was very helpful. We had a lovely stay in Edinburgh, would highly recommend this apartment!
The apartment is really clean but the stairs outside and the communal areas could be cleaned a bit as well, as you need to access those to get into the apartment. The curtains can’t be opened fully, but doesn’t really affect anything.

Location is nice, 10/15 mins from princes street. 5 mins if that from stockbridge.
Curtain in one of the bedrooms was ripped and wouldn’t close meaning I didn’t sleep past 5am on all three mornings I was there. Reported to the host and was advised “maintenance” would contact me to sort, I’ve still never heard from them and I’ve now checked out! Apartment itself has lovely features and nice big rooms but in general is run down and wasn’t very clean (again I reported this and heard nothing). Booking was accepted for 6 people (2 children) but I wouldn’t say the property is suited well for this, the sofa bed is very small and uncomfortable.

The property was beautiful, clean and central. We loved the high ceilings and windows, the little touches and coziness.
I didn’t like that it was not baby friendly (no cot provided or high chairs). There were little toilet rolls provided a and no bin bags...the neighbors seem to get annoyed at everything. We travelled with a toddler and apparently neighbors complained of the noise, which was only during daytime because baby sleeps at 7pm. The fact that there is no permit provided to park the car during early hours of morning and day.

Lots of space and very comfortable and in a great location.
None really apart from parking was a 20 minute walk away. Parking was £30 for the 3 nights.

Ease of location, good communication with owner. Beautifully laid out and well maintained. Would happily stay there again.

El apartamento es muy amplio, luminoso y acogedor, con todo lo necesario para pasar unos dias en Edimburgo. No está en el centro de todo, pero se llega en pocos minutos andando.
Está estupendo para un grupo máximo de 5 personas ya que el sillón cama no es muy grande ni cómodo como para que sea compartido por dos.
Sitio muy recomendable al que si volvemos a Edimburgo no dudamos en repetir.
Lo que no entendimos muy bien fué, que por usar el sillón cama del salón, teníamos que hacer un pago a parte por ponerle las sábanas y edredón. Sí se alquila para 6 personas, como fué nuestro caso, se da por hecho que las 6 camas y sus sábanas están garantizadas.

Las estancias son amplias. La calefacción y agua caliente funcionan bien. Cocina bien equipada. Las camas (menos el sofá cama) son cómodas. Buena comunicación con el anfitrión.
El sofacama es muy incómodo, ya que tienes que pagar a parte si vas a utilizarlo, debería ser más cómodo. Por las opiniones pensé que estaría más céntrico, pero a pie está a unos 15 minutos de Princess St y 30-35 minutos del castillo. El baño necesita una renovación.

Appartamento molto bello ed elegante. Luminoso e spazioso. Completo di tutto, cucina ampia. Letti comodi. La posizione non è centralissima, ma in 10 minuti di passeggiata si arriva in centro. Il quartiere è tranquillo e vicino ci sono diversi servizi.
Check in un po’ complicato, al telefono in inglese. Avesse due bagni sarebbe perfetto.

Una estancia increíble. Al entrar nos quedamos sorprendidos para bien. El apartamento es muy grande y amplio, todas las estancias tenías un tamaño adecuado (incluso excelente). La decoración muy cuidada, generando un ambiente muy acogedor. Las habitaciones espaciosas, con mucha luz y camas grandes y cómodas. La cocina está muy bien equipada y te dejan un pequeño kit de bienvenida con sobres de café, azúcar y leche. El baño correctísimo. Todo muy limpio y ordenado. La comunicación con la empresa perfecta e instrucciones muy claras, tanto para entrar como para salir. La ubicación es ideal, la zona es muy tranquila y queda a 15 minutos del centro. Ojalá hubiéramos podido estar más tiempo aunque esperamos poder volver. ¡Gracias!

الغرف والصالة واسعة جداً ، قربه لقلب أدنبره مشي 12 د ، ويوجد اسفله شارع تجاري مليئ بالمقاهي للإفطار والغداء ، والسكن والأثاث ليس بجديد ولكن جيد جداً ، انصح به لمن يكفيه حمام واحد ، ونوع السكن فيكتوري جميل وقديم نوعا ما
حمام واحد فقط ! والمكواه لم تكن موجوده وقاموا بتوفيرها بعد يومين لانه لايوجد شخص هناك ، السعر غالي جداً ربما بسبب انه شهر مهرجان اغسطس

Très grand et bel appartement.
très bien situé et malgré tout très calme.
La literie était confortable, y compris le canapé lit.
Nous avons adoré notre séjour.
Le prix est malgré tout un peu élevé.

Die Lage und Ausstattung war sehr gut. Die Räume sind sehr schön und die hohen Decken und großen Fenster sind eindrucksvoll. Wir haben uns dort sehr wohl gefühlt.
Das wir nach ein paar Nächten die tolle Wohnung wieder verlassen mussten.

Boendet har bra standard och ett bra läge i staden.
När vi anlände mitt i natten så gick det inte att öppna låsboxen, efter en stunds diskussion med supporten visade det sig att vi dirigerats till fel fastighet, nr 1 istället för 6 som vi först inte kunde öppna med den kod vi fick. Efter ytterliga samtal med supporten fick vi rätt kod och kom in ca en timme senare. Då kom nästa chock, ett av sovrummen var inte städat och var istället påtagligt solkigt och ofräscht. Supporten kunde inte erbjuda oss en annan bostad och vägrade att acceptera de som vi sökte upp på internet. Supporten hade ej mandat att ta ekonomiska beslut. Nästa dag till lunch kom städarna.
