This apartment had more negative factors than positive, and we would not recommend staying here to others. We arrived after check-in time, to find laundry dumped in the hallway and the beds left unmade. Twenty minutes later, two surly cleaners arrived announcing that they were here to make the beds. Not ideal for a romantic getaway. After a brief look around the apartment it was clear that it had been cleaned halfheartedly. The kitchen table was dirty from previous guests, the bin had litter in it, and the toilet hadn’t even been flushed. We contacted the owner (who appears to run this apartment through a third party). The reply was apologetic, but nonchalant. Despite having paid a considerable cleaning fee for this residence, no compensation was offered. The rest of the property was clean, if you don’t look too closely. The windows in the impressively large, high ceilinged living-room were very dirty on the outside. The bathroom did not match the online description of luxury in any shape or form. Old and tired in design, black mould was developing around the bath seals and the shower head was filthy. The panel above the toilet was also rather tatty and beginning to show signs of rust. The extractor fan screeched horrendously when the bathroom light was turned on. The kitchen was only marginally better with broken and chipped fixtures. The bedroom was more than passable, a quiet space with good quality linens and a comfortable bed. The apartment has a high rental tariff, and those expecting luxury will be disappointed. There is a lack of attention to detail, and a sense that those running the property really don’t care about pleasing customers or return business. The negative factors didn’t ruin our stay in Edinburgh, but there are far better serviced apartments in Edinburgh.
