Ideal location. Need hooks and shelving in bathrooms and bedrooms. There was no place to hang towels in bathrooms. A luggage rack would be nice. Instructions posted on how to use towel heater would be helpful. Would probably stay here again because of location.
Flat was exactly as shown in the pictures. Was in a perfect location at the base of Victoria Street in Old Town. Host was helpful and quick to respond to any of our questions, even allowing us an early check in to drop off our bags. Washing machine was a huge bonus! Had all the amenities of home and lots of space for 4 adults to spread out. Walkable to all of the major tourist attractions.
We loved being centrally located in Old Town in a quiet refuge where we could rest and refuel in between adventures. The shared spaces were pleasant and the bedrooms were nice and dark for good sleeping. … The wifi was somewhat intermittent, so we needed to leave plenty of time for downloading tickets, research, etc.

Vieles super, aber nicht alles…
Die Wohnung ist mitten im touristischen Hotspot von Edinburgh. Man kann fast alles zu Fuß erreichen, allerdings sind rundherum natürlich nur Geschäfte (Restaurants, Läden, Kneipen etc.), die entsprechend teuer sind und fast ausschließlich von Touristen genutzt werden. Wenn einem das bewusst ist, ist man gut aufgehoben.Die Wohnung ist sauber, es gibt keinen Renovierungsstau, die Einrichtung ist in Ordnung. Nun zu den kleinen Problemen: das Internet funktionierte über den kompletten Aufenthalt (eine Woche) nicht, da dies wohl am Provider lag (dann gibt es auch keine Erstattung)! Ein Toilettensitz war defekt und wurde ebenfalls nicht repariert.Letztendlich waren wir trotzdem sehr zufrieden.

We didn’t actually stay at this exact location- they had a flood and we got “upgraded”. It was very nice and the location was literally next to st Giles so I won’t complain there but we did go from 2 bathrooms to 1. But I get it- not their fault their place flooded. They meet you at the location and it was super annoying and awkward and our room wasn’t ready despite us not showing up until five pm. With all that the place would have been fine and deserve a good rating but this is the deal breaker: the heat was set to 9* C which is 48F. We could change it but it would autoset back to that after 3 hours. It’s October and cold…. We figure it must be a mistake and email since our phones were being iffy only to get a response saying they couldn’t do anything about it as it is set by the host. are you kidding me!? That’s not even a reasonable temperature to be set at. They also don’t replace toilet paper during the stay which seems crazy. Especially after going from having two bathrooms to one.

The property is great however we arrived to a fried fish smell that created us for at least 2 of the days we were there. We had to buy air freshener and spray it several times. No it was not the fish restaurant next door which is delicious by the way. When I called to speak to the management company they said never got a complaint and what did I want them to do. The tone of the voice was not helpful and didn't care. What he didn't know was there were breathing issues for one of the guests.The worst was their policies were very strict. You had to pay extra to get access if you arrived beyond 6 pm and when they say 10 am check out don't think of staying 1 minute more as the cleaning crew is there knocking on the door...It's a great location but location isn't everything.
Great location, great space, beautifully set up, and it's even set back in a courtyard so you don't hear the noise from the street. Only one problem: the beds are rock hard. If you like a VERY firm bed, it would be perfect for you.
