Friendly staff. Clean area convenient for walking or taking the bus. The bathroom had some water damage and the hot water didn't last long. Some damage on the counter tops that was covered with tape. Bed was not very comfortable. Other than those few things, nice property, safe area, clean unit, friendly staff.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Clean, and in a great location with a 15 - 20 minute stroll to main attractions. I used this as a base when taking part in the Edinburgh Half Marathon and the location was great for strolling to the start area. The apartment itself is very well furnished with everything expected from a self catering apartment for up to a week. Despite being central Edinburgh it is still relatively expensive and additional fees for parking or late checkout bump the overall cost even more. The apartment itself was baking hot due to what I think was underfloor heating in the corridor and there is no option within the apartment to change the thermostat setting. Additionally the small freezer section in my apartment was completely over-iced and the door could not close as the catch was broken. It needs defrosting and in this current state is totally unusable which wasn't a problem for a 2 night stay, but would be an issue if staying longer.
