I’ll start with the good points: the location of this apartment is second to none. You can’t beat it! It is on the most photographed street in Edinburgh, right in the centre of Old Town. Checking in was easy. Communication with Jason was easy. It was quiet and spacious for two people. The kitchen had an adequate amount of stuff to allow some basic cooking.
Now the lesser good points: the apartment needs some TLC. Overall it was clean enough, but the window frames had mould on them. One of the blankets was stained, and there were stains on the pull out sofa. The carpets have seen better days. I could feel the mattress springs through the topper, so would suggest mattress needs renewing. The light wasn’t working in the bedroom and nor was one of the heaters (not a major issue as such, but annoying trying to dry hair in the dark) of which I informed the person in charge (not the owner) but did not receive a reply.
So, if you are only worried about staying in a brilliant location, you can’t go wrong, but I personally was a bit disappointed that the photos made the flat look nicer than it actually was.
