The property was clean and was a great location. If I was being picking the shower grout could use some attention but that would not stop me from booking again. Overall very good experience.

Great location at Grassmarket
Excellent location with easy walking to explore Edinburgh. The apartment is spacious with a full kitchen a big plus! The bedding situation as far as comfort needs to be improved. The boiler should be set up before guest checks in and the shower was a challenge! Definitely recommend this apartment at beautiful Edinburgh.

Almost perfect
It’s a lovely apt. The shower curtain blows against u as shower, which makes it difficult to use. It needs a curtain on the bedroom window beside the closet. the neighbourhood is in an entertainment district, so there is some noise at night. There should be consistency in using the correct address on the host’s information.

Noisy, ugly student housing
My husband and I looked forward to a nice stay in Edinburgh. This property was TERRIBLE. Not at all as described. It's student housing they rent out over the summer to unsuspecting adult guests. NOISY. Very uncomfortable bed and cot. Dirty. Shower was only a shower head in a tub. Worn out furnishings. VERY DISAPPOINTED. Stay away!
