On the positive side, the excellent photo directions made it very easy to find the accommodation and, having never been to Edinburgh, that was massively helpful.
The apartment was warm and comfortable and was generally very clean (apart from the oven). The location was perfect for our needs which was more by luck than judgement on my part but it made for a welcome surprise when I arrived.
On the negative side, the heating was on 24 hours a day and the boiler is locked away. There is no wall thermostat so the only option is to turn each radiator down individually and then turn them all up again in the morning. That is massively wasteful AND the boiler still chugged away all night.
The 2nd point is that the apartment is sorely in need of some TLC, especially the kitchen. The bathroom is OK and the shower is great but it seriously needs to re-grouting. What's there is an eyesore. The bedside tables are falling apart, too. Come on, it needs an upgrade!!
