This property is one of the nicest spots I have stayed in. We were coming off a trip that had us stay at 6 places over 13 days. This was far and above the best. The location was great, check in was so easy and of course the flat was outstanding.

Location, view, cleanliness, safety/security, all excellent ! Washer/dryer a bit finicky. Read all the instructions and do not use day of checkout, as advised. It doesn’t actually dry your clothes, at best leaves them damp, and that cycle takes about three hours to complete and you cannot open the door until it is done. This is all explained in the instructions, so if you read everything thoroughly, you are bound to have no problems. Excellent stay! Our second time here.

The property was in an excellent location. It had a contemporary appeal and the amenities were very good.. the only negative and it is the only negative was the mattress was tired and uncomfortable.. easily rectified… Would certainly recommend this accommodation when in Edinburgh .

We enjoyed the location and views, and found the rooms very comfortable. Found we needed wash clothes. Used the washer dryer without any issue. Wished for an elevator in the building.

This place is close to anything you want in Edinburgh and walking or bus is very close. The apartment is quite large and had all the amenities. It is incredibly clean and decorated well. My main gripe is that there is no elevator and we were on the sixth floor. It was a lot of stairs to go up and down with a toddler and luggage on a two week trip. Also, I missed the note, but parking needs to be pre-arranged, is quite expensive, and pretty far away. It is also on a very busy main road, so picking up and dropping luggage off was a challenge. It was a very nice stay, but not ideal if you have a car or have children. The interior doors are too heavy for a young child to operate and don't have the ability to prop open. Staff interaction was very limited, but quite helpful when needed. Self check-in was easy and has a very good system.
