There were some definite pros and cons to this flat, but ultimately it didn't meet our expectations.
Pros: Good location, close to the train station and lots of cafés and restaurants. Reasonably spacious flat with most of what you need. Smart TV with access to Netflix was a nice plus.
Cons: We didn't realise the flat was on the fourth floor of an apartment with no lift, and it's a LOT of stairs. I am pregnant so this was more challenging for me than it would be normally, and we had one larger suitcase between the two of us which my husband had to lug up 80ish steps. Inside the flat, there was no soap in the bathrooms (despite the listing pictures showing provided bath goods), there was an unsightly opening in the wall above the kitchen where someone seemed to have done some electrical work and forgot to replace the cover panel (the actual panel was behind the kitchen door with a clutter of other random items), and there were some stains on the pull-out couch and throw cushions. About the hand soap, we contacted the property management group that Brendan referenced in all his messages to ask about getting some. They didn't reply, but when we got back to our flat after sightseeing, soap and shower goods had been supplied while we were out. When we used the shower the next day the drain backed up and water flooded the bathroom floor. We assessed the drain catcher, but it seemed the issue may have been with the drain/plumbing itself.
All in all, while we appreciated having an entire flat for our stay in Edinburgh, the place didn't live up to our expectations based on the listing pictures and description. We would not stay again.
