Great location and nice to have kitchen and washing machine and lounge but needs maintenance eg door handle not securly fixed and lock box comes off wall. Noise comes through walls and bathrooms are not ensuite. Trade off with condition and privacy for kitchen and washing machine. Close to hire car. Walk to sites or transport.

Great location, very convenient, but feeling a bit tired. Mattress sunken, mould in bathroom, things hanging off wall. Just needs a little spruce up and renewals.

This is part of a converted flat in the basement of a townhouse. There are three room available with a communal kitchen and lounge area. It is a 10 min walk to the tram and a 25 min walk to the castle

The room was nice and clean but there was no heat apart from a small space heater that barely made a difference. The key box was a little problematic. The numbers were hard to see.

One of the best places I have stayed and it is close to the town centre as well within walkable distance with easy accessibility to all shops and restaurants. The room particularly was clean and warm with all amenities needed to cook. There was Alps a pound which was even comfortable to dine and watch television. Overall I am very much happy with the room and place. I would highly recommend this.Thank you very much.

Really nice sized room, nice bathroom and comfy beds. Our host was lovely and really helpful. Very close to centre and good bars and restaurants. Only downside is ceiling is quite thin and we had some very noisy neighbours upstairs! Overall a lovely stay and would definitely stay again.

This stay was fine, in terms of location it was nice and quiet and a lovely walk into town. Cleanliness left some to be desired but it was mostly fine and we enjoyed our stay.

The accommodation was really well located, was superbly maintained, very clean, near the supermarket. The kitchen was great to use and it felt homely. It is a well priced option in Edinburgh and worked out perfectly for our tourist related travel by foot.

Edinburgh is a brilliant city so many diverse things to see and do. From museums,
castles, eating, night life to walking up large hills and along a river in dense woodlands with nature and all in walking distance. Our Room had a huge bed and we had a separate lounge to ourselves which was the Russian suite. Check in and out was fully explained and easy as there is no check in desk at these apartments. All in all a great stay.

I found the key safe awkward to close when leaving the property and difficult to regulate the shower, although it was lovely and hot. Good value for money and beautiful location

the property is in a great location, only a small walk away from Princes Street. The room size was great for the four of us - nice and clean also. The bathroom was very clean too and also a great size. Check - in was easy and we felt safe in the accommodation.

A important thing someone should knew before visiting here is the bathroom is no en suit and has a extractor fan that is quiet loud and one night woke up the people in the room opposite as the extractor fan turn on with the light and still on after the lights off. The room was clean enough and alright for us, as we just wanted somewhere to sleep after exploring the city for the day and meeting old friends but not a ‘destination’ hotel.
