fantastic property, well located and well maintained

It gave us a home feeling, the welcome pack had yummy cookies and flavored teas. The WiFi was superb. The beds were comfortable. The bathroom water/shower was nice and hot. Didn't get to enjoy the garden as it was always raining & wet. A special thanks to Juju who helped us in checking in.
The heating system in the rooms and hall could be improved or probably it was extremely cold and didn't work.
The lighting in the rooms can be improved in winters there was only darkness all the time.
A mirror in the hallway would help and a little more space / shelves in the cupboard of room 2 would help as well.
We had difficulty in finding the apartment as our online check in form didn't go through and we didn't receive the house manual that had all the instructions.

Great sized apartment and very well equipped with everything you need. Great location and has a small garden too which was lovely to have in such a central spot. The staff were very nice and helpful prior to arriving too.
We had no control over the heating and we were cold one night. It would be good to even have a booster function since they do not let you amend the timings or switch it on outside of hours at all. They said you can contact them but it was late and too much hassle.
Overall it was clean however, there was rubbish in the cabinet under the TV (an empty bottle of alcohol) and the recycling hadn't been emptied prior to our stay.
Also, it was a basement apartment and just outside of the door accross from it was a broken wooden door/storage unit. It was hanging open with no way to close and it felt a little unsafe at night coming home
as the external gate to enter had no lock either so anyone could have gotten in to it. This should be boarded up or a new door put in.

Specious. Extensively equipped kitchen. Easily accessible by bus or foot to the main tourist attractions. "honesty bar" of wine. Books and gamesin thr leaving room.
Uneasy staircase from street tevel to the basement level. Oven could be cleaner.

my 4th or 5th time staying here now. the location is excellent for getting around the city. The apartment is large and on the whole comfortable. I travel for work so possibly spend more time in the apartment than tourists exploring the sites.
ALTIDO are not interested in customer feedback. They bombard you with emails from the point of booking to check in.
I was due to arrive on Sunday afternoon, but I arrived a day later than expected. on Sunday morning at 5.40am before check in was expected I received a call from ALTIDO asking me why there was loud noise coming from the apartment. I wouldn't know i am not due to check in until Sunday afternoon! Upon arrival to the property I was pleased to see the front courtyard area had been tided up and how much better it looked from my last review. However the back door to the garden area was wide open and had obviously been for sometime. the apartment was extremely cold as a result. Having stayed here a number of times I could see that everything seemed to be in place and that there were no signs of a break in. I informed ALTIDO immediately by message and also the fact that the toilet in the bathroom was dirty. I had to send over a picture to evidence this! during my stay I also found used tissue under the bed in the second bedroom and flight boarding passes under the rug in the main bedroom. all reported to ALTIDO who told me that they would remain in contact on the issues. i am yet to hear back.
I would like to direct this to the owner of the property. Your apartment is perfect for visiting Edinburgh apart from some maintenance issues it really is a lovely home from home. The management company you use is poor and give the impression of excellent customer service until you require them to act. Please consider using an alternantive managemnt company.

Very Spacious clean superb location well equipped
Really comfortable beds and beautiful scented sheets.
Nice outdoor space at the rear of the property.
Heating went off in the night cold enough to wake me up and could not put it back on as sign saying please do not touch heating locked.
No coffee pods or explanation of which pods machine uses.

My fourth time at this property. Location as per my previous review is what makes this apartment so appealing. It’s within easy walking distance of all Edinburgh has to offer.
Pleased to see the sealant around the shower had been replaced or cleaned after my previous visit. Heating controls were no longer locked out so I had control of the temperature throughout my stay.
The front of the property still needs to be cleaned up and weeds pulled out. It really does let the apartment down as that messy over grown courtyard is your first impression. Furniture upgrades or repairs are still required.

Only slight issue was road noise in the front bedroom, secondary glazing would definitely help reduce noise levels

My second stay at this apartment. The location is excellent for walking around the city.
The entrance to the apartment front courtyard is overgrown with weeds. It needs clearing and a good clean up.
The heating at the property is locked out so you are not able to change the temperature. That isn’t any good when it’s cold and you need to boost the temp. The only reason I can see for the locked out controls is to save money. If you rent out an apartment you expect to be able to control the heat.
The apartment in the whole is comfortable and has everything you need for a pleasant stay. There are areas that could do with attention. The bathroom shower cubicle has black mould around the sealant of the tray. The furniture in the lounge is not the most comfortable and some of it is held together by heavy duty tape. The dinning chairs in the kitchen are torn and need a recover.

Prompt and effective response about heating which someone else had switched off. But should have been checked by cleaners after last guest
instructions could also have been in booklet form.
