Clean, safe & reasonably priced.
Pros:

A good location. The apartment was spacious and very clean. Good secure underground parking with security fob to enter the car park and building. Close to Asda, Royal Yacht Britannia. Comfortable beds.

Cons:

The sofas were very low and uncomfortable. The dining chairs were also very low and difficult to get up from.. Both bathroom suites had extremely low toilets and basins. This is difficult for anyone with knee or hip problems. The flat was a bit soulless and needed some cushions, a rug or a pop of colour as everything is white or brown.

This was a comfortable and convenient place to stay.
Pros:

Excellent and helpful staff. Apartment was comfortable. We were out of the central part of the city in a quiet area, near a bus line for easy access. Buildings was secure, quiet, and well maintained.

Cons:

I didn’t care for the fact that doors didn’t stay open, so we needed to prop them all open with our bags to get air flow through the apartment.

Cons:

Bed, settees and dining chairs all very uncomfortable. Due to the nature of our stay we were in the apartment from late afternoon and there was nowhere you could get comfortable

Comfortable enjoyable family weekend ; better temperature control would make it 10/10
Pros:

Clean comfortable easy to find, interesting views. Easy to get to super market, shops, local leith attractions and to get in city centre.

Cons:

A little noisy ( ie eventually quiet around 1am and then noise started again around 6am) and difficult to control the temperature; you have to open the doors to get fresh air in as the windows are integral. Then it’s noisy etc. Fans provided are noisy overnight. It was a high of around 20 degrees and low of 14 overnight for context, but too warm inside.
Noisy neighbours upstairs but that’s just luck of the draw of course and not the owner’s responsibility.

Pros:

Bra läge för ett par dagar i Edinburgh. Bra med parkeringshus inte lätt att bli av med bilen i centrala Edinburgh. Buss utanför dörren eller billig taxi/uber funkade utmärkt. Nära till Asda butik för att handla.

Great value for Edinburgh, though a little far from downtown.
Pros:

A second time at the property, and we loved it just as much this time. We were travelling with a car this time, so it was much easier to get in and out of given it is a little far from downtown Edinburgh. But all in all it was really great value considering the space, amenities, and how well organised everything is.

Cons:

The only things we would have liked were:
- a little more shower amenities, given the length of the stay
- some door stoppers for the doors, which were a bit of a hassle with our toddler
