This property was beautiful,
very roomy, clean, warm and quiet.
It has great facilities; modern kitchen and bathrooms and Netflix!
It literally is a home from home. The only thing that would have made it more comfortable is if the property had blinds or some nets on the very large windows. You could see into all the adjacent properties, especially in the evenings, as they could to us, the surrounding buildings are also high raise apartments. I felt this particular in the kitchen as the window didn't even any curtains at all.
Self check in was straight forward but a bit tricky trying to get to the keybox with 2 heavy bins to move out of the way, but we managed.
Communication with the property manager was swift and helpful prior and during our stay.
There is a large supermarket 5 to 7mims walk down the road, which is very helpful.
The bus stop into Edinburgh is also by the supermarket. We had to Google the buses and timetable; so maybe some bus time tables to the popular attractions would be helpful in the welcome folder at the property.
The buses did seem to run late alot, but there are alot of roadworks in Edinburgh at the moment. The bus into the city takes about 20+mins. That was the only downside
to this property, it was a bit far out from the city.
Didn't have the best luck with taxis.
The company recommended in the information folder where late every time we booked them. Telling us they were very busy, even on a Thursday morning. They were almost half an hour late for our journey back to the airport, which was concerning! Then had the cheek to charge us an extra £2 because he was kind enough to take us directly to the departure entrance! Price of the journey into and out of the city ranged between £10 and £18.
The travelling around should not put you off staying at this property, just do your resesrch into the buses or download the Moovit app which has all the timetables and bus stops you require.
I would recommend this property to anyone wishing to visit Edinburgh and I would stay there again myself as we really enjoyed it.
