Everything was exactly as pictured and expected. Fabulous location, decently comfortable bed, clean. Excellent communication and check in. Just a couple of small, cheap suggestions 1) please fill the salt and pepper shakers 2) a shelf by the bathroom sink for toothbrushes would be helpful as well as a shelf or basket of sorts in the shower would be helpful for guests who prefer their own toiletries. Would definitely stay again.

We loved the king studio, lots of room and the kitchen has everything we needed. I was surprised when I found the laundry machine. The bathroom, kitchen and living room were clean. Thank you for the little milks, tea and coffee. Would highly recommend this place and the communication was excellent.

This accommodation is excellent in every respect—its location, cleanliness, staff friendliness, and overall facilities are all outstanding. The only minor drawback is the absence of an elevator.

The room we rented was way bigger than expected! It was on the top floor, and there are no elevators. The description does say that, which wasnt a problem for us. We arrived much earlier than our check- in time and we were able to drop our bags off at tje main office which made our day!

The location of the property is near the all the important sites in Edinburgh. The space was well sized and clean. There was in unit laundry that was well received. The building is quite old and the units are up a few floors (no elevators) so if someone has mobility issues, this would not be ideal. Staff were extremely responsive and helpful.

The view and the location alone made this the perfect place to stay! With that said, we were on the third floor which meant we had to lug our suitcases up nearly 70 stairs. Fortunately, we were up to the task, and knew that was the case going in. Because the location was so amazing, we popped right out to a pub after that journey. Some angel of a man (whom I am pretty sure was wearing a property jacket and works for the company that owns the space) happened to show up as we were checking out and he carried our heaviest bags all the way downstairs. I would absolutely stay here again! Albeit, with a lighter suitcase ;)
