It is often difficult to judge a property when assessing the star rating. This is a simple rental in a good location in Edinburgh. The amenities are few in comparison to other rentals I've been in and I did not like the idea of the soap in the shower being used by the previous guest. A Tesco across the street solved that problem. I was a bit disappointed after reading such great reviews but I believe i just had higher expectations. Considering the price and location this was a fine property if you aren't staying in the property for extended periods of time. Also note, while part of the hill of Holyrood Park is visible from the small back porch, there is not a view. If you sit on the little porch you basically are looking at trash receptacles for the housing complex.
