The location was great. It was on the third floor with no lift. We had a lot of luggage. Mazin was very attentive to our needs and questions. The wifi was not working but Mazin offered to buy an eSIM. The beds comforter was too small for two people. Kitchen was fine. We never found the swimming pool or the BBQ. Didn’t take the time to ask the host. Walking distance to downtown, grocery and restaurants was excellent. We would recommend this place to our friends.
Great area for us. Near a few convenient bus stops. Had some great walks including the hike to Arthur’s Seat. Not mentioned is that there is a slight Edinburgh Castle view from the kitchen and small bedroom. Quiet neighborhood. Would stay here again!
Staying a second time around definitely was a great decision. My stay at this lovely little flat was ideal for a getaway while doing some site seeing and having quiet time to catch up on work. I highly recommend.

My partner and I booked the apartment for 3 nights - on the first night my partner arrived ahead of me due to my illness. The host then asked my partner to leave the premises- despite the fact we had already paid - and told us we needed to find new accommodation (suspecting we were a scam). I have a chronic illness which I tried to explain to the host, but this was ignored and I was repeatedly messaged. The stress of the interaction caused a flare in my health and a lot of upheaval to my partner. Vrbo agreed that we had done nothing wrong and refunded us the full cost of the stay. They also apologised in the host’s behalf. The appartment is In a great location and my partner said seemed excellent value for money, however our experience in this instance was far from positive.

Ideal location for our needs but…
That was about it.
The fridge was clean and that and the radiator quickly warming up were the only redeeming highlights of the flat.
Disappointed by everything else. Normally, I am easy going and do not criticise. I would not recommend this ever.
The whole flat needed a makeover. Very drafty (kitchen window could not be closed securely and blew open in the night.). Bedding was cleaned but with some permanent staining. Main mattress was uneven so a challenge to lie flat and, therefore have a good night sleep (my son was competing at a national sporting event all weekend). Bathroom had some mildew around shower that needed re-caulking. Kitchen sink water was at best warm. Oven was dirty. So did not use. I came prepared to cook for my athlete. We ended up eating out more than I wanted. Pots and pans mismatched, stained (could not scour clean) and fry pans we needing throwing out. No matching cutlery.

The location was mostly convenient. We were able to walk to most places within 20 minutes. The apartment was not as clean as it could be. The bathtub still had hair in it when we arrived. The sheets on the king bed appeared to not be very clean, again found hairs on the sheets. The surfaces in the place were very dusty. The exhaust fan in the bathroom was very dirty. Dust ruffle on the single bed was dirty and/or stained. I would suggest to the owner that they touch base with the cleaning staff and encourage them to be more efficient. There were also nails sticking out of the wood floors which caused a scrap injury to a guest.
I stayed there with my husband and our two-year-old daughter. We had a wonderful time; we were made to feel welcome, and our requests were always met. I recommend this place.
Quiet part of the city, shops and bars within walking distance..Fluent communication from landlord with easy check in and check out process. Everything you need from the accommodation as you’ll be exploring the majority of the time.
Mazin was very helpful, the flat is in an excellent location and has everything you need for your stay. We enjoyed staying there, if we ever come back to Edinburgh, Mazin will be our first choice. Highly recommended!
Perfectly situated to explore Edinburgh, even on foot. House and flat are quite old, which is part of the charm. Everything was in working order, it was wonderfully quiet at night. The host was really good, any questions were answered immediately. We enjoyed our stay very much.
The flat is spacious and clean, has wifi and is in an excellent location. I had to raise a few relatively minor issues with the property manager but communications were good as they were with the booking process and pre-entry

We booked this flat in September for two nights over the Edinburgh Marathon weekend through Expedia, and the reservation was fully confirmed. Then in the last week of Feb, the host contacted us saying there was suddenly a three-night minimum stay policy and that we had to pay for an extra night or we had to cancel.
By that point, marathon weekend accommodations across Edinburgh were either sold out or massively more expensive, so we were effectively handcuffed into accepting the extra night because we had no realistic alternative.
There was no flexibiltiy and complete lack in understanding with the position we were put in. We had already arranged all our travel plans and therefore paid for a night we didn’t use.
Changing booking requirements six months after confirming a reservation during one of the busiest weekends of the year was very unfair. I would strongly caution future guests to confirm every detail directly with the host before booking.
We recently took a short family trip to Edinburgh. The location of the apartment was excellent — close to everything we needed and easy to get around. The place was clean, and communication with the host was good throughout our stay.However, the apartment is in need of a major renovation and felt too small for even three adults. The kitchen equipment could use an upgrade, no coffee maker, etc…and the mattress in the main bedroom urgently needs replacing for a more comfortable stay.Overall, great location and host communication, but the property itself would benefit from significant updates.

We believe that this property is in serious need of upgrading if it is to be let. I have attached photos of some of the issues. The windows at the back were very noisy when windy. The cold tap in the kitchen did not work.The location was perfect for us and communication with the owner was excellent.
