You know the old saying-location, location, locations! That’s this apt in a nutshell. I’d been to Edinburgh previously, but stayed over in New Town. I was determined this time to be closer to everything, and this apt really worked out well. I actually hadn’t realized just how good the location was till I arrived and started doing things. Yet, to be so central, it’s amazingly quiet! I’m used to city apts being noisy with lots of traffic noise-this apt is in the back of the building overlooking a private parking area (you still have great views), so you aren’t hearing street noise. And the apt itself is clean and warm with everything you need. I used the washing machine-it works well. There are several security measures in place throughout the building, which I appreciated. Communication with Jana was excellent-she’s very quick to reply, and help if needed. Lots of Edinburgh info as you walk in the door. The only drawback is the electric shower-which simply doesn’t have the power you’d expect (or that I’ve experienced elsewhere)-however building management is enforcing this situation, Jana has no control over it. You’ll still get hot water, and this was more than offset by the location and rest of the apt. (Like the huge, fluffy towels provided.) Lots of grocery stores in the area, and it’s convenient for both bus lines and the meeting point for many day tours. Highly recommend this apt, so glad I found it. Would absolutely stay again.
