There were good things and bad things about this place, so on average it was OK. At half the price, it might have been good.
Arrival was easy and pain-free. The kitchen was very well equipped (except for the fridge door, which needs replacing). The beautiful wooden floor felt good underfoot, and the underfloor heating worked well. There was plenty of storage space, with lots of hangers. The bathroom was fine, except that it was difficult to see in the mirror to shave (not enough light) and the basin water wasn't warm enough. Also, the bathroom lacked . . . well, see later.
Communication was good. Hamid responded quickly to our problems, and brought soap over when we told him there wasn't any, and got the shower drain unblocked the same day we reported it. He politely answered everything we asked.
We chose this place because it appeared to have easy parking. However, the photo was deceptive. You have to drive through a narrow gap metres away from a busy junction. If your car is small and you're good at manoeuvres, you can then turn round in the space. Otherwise, you have to reverse back out onto the busy road. Luckily, onstreet parking is available (free) close by.
The bungalow was generally clean. However, there was some litter in the patio area in front of it, and the outdoor seats are covered in black mould (or something equally yucky - I didn't want to investigate too closely). One of the "clean" wine glasses had lipstick marks. There were some cobwebs in the bathroom.
The bed was small and not very comfortable. The first night, we were kept awake by the bedhead banging loudly against the wall whenever the other of us moved, but we draped a blanket around it for following nights. We didn't like the cheap bedding. (The towels - there were enough of them - also didn't seem particularly good quality, and were small.) The sofa was also not very comfortable.
We don't know what is at the back of the building, but there are no windows at the back. There is only one entrance, and the lip to that door is really high, and had us tripping and nearly falling a number of times. This isn't really safe, especially for retired people.
These problems would be passed over somewhere at the lower end of the price range, but at the price we paid, we felt we were a long way from getting value for money. But there is one major reason we will not be seeking to return here. The bathroom/toilet had no window and NO EXTRACTOR FAN. Its door opened straight into the kitchen area. So any steam - AND SMELLS - have nowhere to go except for the kitchen area, after which they can waft through the sitting area before reaching the front door and escaping. We did not enjoy cooking or sitting in the results of our previous curries. A kitchen that smells of excrement can't be considered acceptable. We believe this is really unhygienic - even just a single door between toilet and cooking area isn't good enough.
This place is very conveniently located near the Edinburgh Ring Road, so access to most parts is straightforward.
