Me and my partner thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Edinburgh and if you’re looking for a semi-affordable stay and in a desirable location this is perfect with beautiful views and excellent transportation links.
However, there were a number of issues that were encountered that put us of returning to this airbnb. Firstly, despite reviews we found the host to be hard to contact and fairly unhelpful. I did not hear from her until a mere hours before check in after having to chase up multiple times. As well as this, for check in the key was left in a lock box in a location we had to look around for in the dark. Secondly, there are a number of maintenance issues that effected the quality of our stay. For example, broken bed slats, rusty bathroom and kitchen appliances, wobbly stools and toilet seat that felt like if you sat properly it’d fall straight off. As well as this the only private area is the bedroom and when you have unhygienic guests that leave bloody tissue in the toilet isn’t nice
