Pros:

Great location. We could walk to most places in 10-15 minutes. Plenty of space for two and it was nice to be able to wash our clothes. Plus, the café had great coffee. We will stay here again.

If we were in Edinburgh more often we would become regulars become
Pros:

A very laid back property in a great location and with a really friendly young staff in the cafe and the hotel side. Where else would the young woman who was monitoring overnight sit and chat with you while waiting for your 4:30 AM Taxi?
It was really nice having the small cafe downstairs open most of the day and offering a place where friends could meet you before going to lunch or dinner. The apartment style rooms were amazingly well stocked with shiny pans, an oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, toaster, kettle and clothes washer.
We thought we had one small problem which was addressed quickly and turned out to just be our lack of knowledge of popup drain plugs.
Perfect place for a longish stay.

Cons:

While the room was in perfect condition, the hallway carpets had stains they gave the hotel a feeling it didn't deserve.
Our room also bordered on what may have been an outdoor space of a neighboring bar. It being quite warm for Edinburgh we had our window open and from 4 PM to almost 11 it was noisy and vulgar in a way only drunks can be. Didn't happen the other two nights. And despite knowing there were many other people staying, the hotel itself was very quiet.

Noisy, smoking people in courtyard and leaking shower made us not wanting to return to this place.
Pros:

Easy check in, with very friendly people. Place was clean, with nicely designed furniture. A bit small, but very well equipped with dishwasher, washing/drying machine, oven, iron and board, yoga mat etc. Good amount of storage space for clothes. Downstairs coffee shop. Elevator worked well.

Cons:

Very noisy courtyard with people from the next door bar talking loudly and smoking. Could not have the windows open, and place got very stuffy and warm, even in September with rainy weather. Bed was narrow and short, but firmness was good.
Location was good, not perfect, hard to get an Uber at this location (took at least 10 min before I got one).
Shower was leaking a lot, had to use multiple towels to catch it, could wring them out after 1 shower. No coffeemaker, only a kettle, even though "standard" coffeemaking equipment was promised. Only 2 each of plates, glasses, silverware, so it felt like a waste to run the dishwasher for just 2 glasses.
For the price we paid for this apartment we had expected a bit better.

Pros:

Adorei o local, bem no centro da cidade. Fiquei num apartamento no basement, e nao ee ouvia qualquer barulho.
Estava tudo limpo embora quando pedimos para fazerem uma limpeza a meio da semana pediram-nos um extra de 55 libras. Recusamos. E então trocaram as toalhas e tiraram o lixo.
O hotel fica perto de supermercados express e muitos restaurantes.
Staff simpatico

Great
Pros:

I really enjoyed my stay! The location is excellent and close to almost everywhere. We had a problem with our flight being delayed, so I contacted the property through Booking and they responded very quickly
They also have a WhatsApp number, and I was able to contact them 24/7
The location is close to most of the main attractions, so we never needed to book an Uber or taxi while exploring the city everything was within walking distance

The apartment was also very well equipped there was a washing machine and everything we needed was available
we had a great experience

Cons:

The walls are quite thin, so you can sometimes hear noise from the neighboring rooms and from outside However, it usually becomes very quiet after 10 PM, so we were able to sleep comfortably without any major issues

5 Stars Eden Locke
Pros:

I booked at this location fairly last minute, but I was so happy that I discovered Eden Locke.

Both the room and the staff were excellent and they went out of their way to make sure I felt very comfortable and safe.

The location is amazing whether you're travelling with a family or as a solo traveller. I could easily walk to many restaurants and attractions.

Definitely 5 stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Cons:

I honestly cant think of anything I didn't like.
