  : The location in old town was excellent and very secure. Property was well set out.
  : problems we had which made it uncomfortable for us:1. bed very hard, no mattress topping so could feel the spring coils- had to sleep on couch2. had asked for extra bed made up and paid extra 25 however when we arrived only a fold out couch which was very stained and dirty and not made up. Consequently we found and used the single fold out bed and made it up with linen left for us.3. Key to door was very difficult to get out and go in for both locking and opening - took several tries every time4. Bathroom - not safe and water took long time to come through shower head - needed rubber bath mat and at least one bar handle on wall to hold on as getting in and out if bath. 5. Only one light working in kitchen

  : Location was brilliant. Right in old town close to shops and bars.
  : Property was ok, covered in marks in need of a paint, bathroom needs an overhaul.Advertised as 3 beds but information wasn't easy to find that 2 beds were camp beds.

  : The apartment was located very close to the old town and was easy to get there from the train station.We liked all the facilities of the place great to be able to do washing when traveling around overseas. The kitchen was well equipped, and it was nice to be able to cook dinner some nights.
  : The apartment is old and a little run down and in need of some renovations and new bed linen.If you have a lot of bags, it is hard lifting them up 3 floors of stairs. The location seems to be the area where it is very noisy at night.

  : This apartment is in a prime location in Edinburgh! We couldn't have asked for a better spot! My sister and I ventured around Edinburgh city and our apartment was so convenient to get to all the places we wanted to see. It's also right in the middle of Grassmarket so plenty of quirky bars at night to visit! We had an absolute ball and would go back in a heartbeat!
  : The apartment was great! But I think it could have been slightly cleaner, I cleaned the counters and bath before using as they were a tad grubby! But nothing too major that put me off, the apartment was still lovely and ideal.

Disappointing
