Very Good
We were delighted with the location and cleanliness of the flat, the ease with which we accessed the keys and the owner's communications welcoming us and helping with departure.
The bedroom was cramped. It would be improved if the door opened outwards or possibly even relocated alongside the kitchen door. This would free up space in the bedroom and create a little lobby area in the bedroom for a useful coat rack. The lower communal hallway would benefit from having more light.

Modern and clean apartment. Well equipped with new appliances. Lovely white towels in bathroom. Lots of local info books and leaflets available. Close to all tourist attractions, bus stops and train station. Check-in was easy. Great communication with host.
Entrance to property very shabby. Recommend a bigger tv screen. A flat screen tv would look good on the wall in the lounge where there is a mirror above the fireplace. Pillows need renewing. A bit lumpy. And a better quality double bed would be preferable.

It was very central .It was very clean and comfortable.
The Internet was terrible.Also, it was in a back lane where the rubbish was collected, so it a bit noisy early in the morning .But I would still recommend it.

Poor
Interiors looked cool
The host was highly unprofessional - he was not available for check-in or check-out and sent a lengthy and confusing message with directions for collecting the key. After the initial struggle, I entered the apartment only to discover there was no power. I tried calling the owner more than 15 times, sent numerous messages on his mobile number and booking.com application, but he did not respond. He eventually sent an electrician after an hour and a half to fix it, followed by a text message saying he was out of town and hoped I was enjoying my stay. it was very ridiculous and unprofessional, he should have sent a text earlier assuring guest safety. His unprofessional behavior ruined my mood and the entire day. It was a horrible experience in a new country and unknown town. The host had earlier mentioned that early check-in was not possible due to other guests, and the cleaner needed to prepare the room. However, I was disappointed to find that the bed linen had not been changed or refreshed, the towels appeared used, and the floors were covered in hair. Also there was no soap, shampoo, shower gel, or anything we would expect in a hotel apartment. Additionally, the room heater was malfunctioning, as the temperature stayed at 18 degrees Celsius regardless of the thermostat setting. Despite not responding to messages, the host sent me a text the following day reminding me about my check-out time, which was on the third day. This was an unprofessional and greedy act. Fellow travelers should be aware and avoid this apartment if they desire a peaceful and safe stay

Fantastic location and facilities, really nice space, great kitchen
The noise! Can't understand why more people haven't commented on this as it was so bad. Stayed 2 nights, both nights the yelling, yahooing, fighting until after 3am was so loud, like they were just outside an open window beside the bed. Then 6am the rubbish trucks started both Saturday and Sunday mornings emptying the bins just below the bedroom window. Really needs the bedroom windows double, or ideally, triple glazed and the place would be perfect. Came home shattered.

Fantastic location and beautiful flat. Really comfortable and nicely furnished.
The heating seemed not to come on in theory morning but this was easily rectified by the controls. A table in the sitting room which could double as a coffee table and dinner table would be a great addition.

Great flat in a central location. We had all that we needed for a 3 night stay and extra supplies could be brought from the convenience store less than 10 minutes away. Accomodation was nice and clean with very responsive heating during the cold nights.
Just a technicality - loose toilet seat of no great consequence. Communal street door was also pretty loose on the lock.

The location was perfect being in the heart of Edinburgh near the bus station for tours and walking distance to everything--Edinburgh Castle, Royal Mile, Calton Hill, restaurants, shopping, Arthur's Seat, Whiskey Experience, etc. Airport is about 20 minutes away by taxi.
The dumpsters are nearby and restaurants dump their trash after 10pm. Sometimes it can be loud.
