Un aparramento comodo un poco lejos del centro
Pros:

El apartamento era muy grande, comodo y perfectamente equipado. Teniamos el apartamento en la septima planta con unas vistas espectaculares. El autobus de la linea 11 sale en frente del apartamento y te deja en el centro. Cerca hsy un supermercado y algunos bares y restaurantes.

Cons:

Para volver del centro es un poco mas complicado, depende desde donde, ya que solo el 11 te deja en frente del apartamento. Los demas te dejan mas lejos.

Pros:

Spotlessly clean, fantastic view and ideal location within 20 minutes bus ride into the centre of Edinburgh.
The number 11 bus starts just outside and there is always one waiting.
The Royal yacht Britannia is about 10 minutes away by cab or you can get a bus from the fishcakes just a few minutes walk away.

Cons:

The only thing which is a health and safety concern is the self closing doors on each bedroom. The spring loading system needs adjusting as the doors are really heavy and close so quickly. A child or even an adult could easily get a finger crushed in the closing doors.

Pros:

Location was fab with beautiful views.

Cons:

Not the best equipped!
Very basic for an executive property.
Coffee machine with no pods!
3 bathrooms & not one with a proper hand wash pump!
Outside space with only 2 chairs but property for 4 people!
These are basic for any property but executive would expect so much more !

Ideal for 4 people, only a short bus ride to the centre
Pros:

The apartment was close to a bus stop (5 minutes walk) and the tram line which we didn't use because of a technical issue. Cafe serving breakfast next door which was good. The apartment itself was clean and underground parking a bonus

Cons:

nothing not to like

Pros:

It was clean.
The location was good.
The unit was clean.
The view was good.
It was hot when we were there, so we were happy to have the fans in each bedroom, as there is no air conditioning.

Cons:

The bathroom sink had a minor leak when you would turn the water on. But, it was minor enough that we just put a towel on the floor and didn't bother to report it until we checked out.
The kitchen and living room furniture were not comfortable.
You should have some door stops available. We came as a family and wanted to all be able to hang out and talk, but the doors don't stay open. So, we had to use a kitchen chair to prop each bedroom door and the living room door open.
