This apartment was conveniently located for the city centre (around a 30 minute walk, but quite hilly - a taxi cost around £8.50. We would throughly recommend Central Taxis Edinburgh and downloading their app.) The area was fairly tranquil of an evening with only the odd person wondering by, the below street level apartment kept any noise or nosiness to a minimum. That being said, the stairs down (though very quaint) were steep and could be hazardous for anyone with mobility issues. I did not see any alternative access. When we arrived there had been some issue with the cleansing service of the apartment. A quick call to the number we were sent along with the key box code, saw this rectified in good time. Generally the apartment was attractive with some lovely fixtures and fittings. The kitchen was smaller than we imagined but had almost everything needed for a short break. It was clean, though the cupboards and fridge could use a deeper clean. That being said we were in the apartment when the cleansing team arrived so I guess they may possibly have done a more thorough clean if this had not been the case. As I’m fairly certain was made clear in the specs for the apartment there’s no dishwasher, but we couldn’t find a plug to fill the sink or at least a washing up bowl as we could’ve used these to clean the dishes more effectively. We also realised early on the kettle didn’t seem to be working, but a pan with water on the hob sufficed. We didn’t really utilise the utility area (which housed a washing machine) or the little office area. The outdoor area to the rear of the apartment was cute, there was a bench but a table and some extra seating could be nice. The beds/sofa bed were comfortable.
Overall we we’re satisfied and enjoyed our stay here.
