We stayed in Apartment 1 for 4 nights in winter time. Good points: Good communication beforehand, so booking was smooth. Excellent location, close to everything. Living room: impressive, it is massive! Kitchen had the basics it was working fine, sheets were clean. Negative points: cleanliness: damp smell and dust in a lot of places. COLD: yes, Edinburgh gets very cold... More
