Beware ! This is not the 5 star opulence of the Carlton Highland or the MacDonald Group of hotels, BUT it is very clean, in a great location, the beds are very comfortable and amenities are very good. The only downside was that on the Friday night we stayed there was quite a lot of noise when the local club... More

The apartment we stayed in was a fantastic deal, it was cheaper than staying in a hostel! The apartment seemed newly decorated with a lovely clean bathroom and kitchenette. The beds were very comfy and the road outside was not a distraction. It had everything that you would need from your stay. The man in the office was very nice... More

We found this place on lastminute.com and found it was near enough the cheapest place we could stay in Edinburgh, even compared to budget hotels, and we were getting an apartment! The person in the office was very friendly and helpful to us and was very handy to have around if we needed anything. It's in a good location, only... More

The location was fantastic, simply could not beat it. My apartment was beautifully done up, with all the amenities i could want. The price was the best i'd found and the owners were incredibly helpful, ordering taxi's when needed, advice on what to see etc... I HIGHLY recommend this place and i hope to go back soon :))

Our initial impression of the apartment was that the amount of space and facilities were very good; double bedroom, twin room, bathroom, lounge/kitchen with all required facilities for an extended stay. As commented below the decor is in need of an update but that is a minor issue which is being addressed. The location is great, able to walk into... More

Some review say the place needs refurbishing, the hall ways and stairs are dark but what do people want from hallways anyway ? Great value for money I paid £197 for two nights for four lads. Great value. Rooms where fine and the kitchen was more than we needed really. Location is great, a 5min walk from the grass market.... More

On arrival, we soon realised that the apartment which was advertised was one of a very select few which had been updated. The apartments which we were led to could only be described as a building site. On entering the apartment, we were greeted by 1970/80's decor where the wallpaper was hanging from the walls in many parts. We overlooked... More

Dear Bobby D, I'm disappointed that you have chosen to use this method to make us aware of your concerns following your recent stay, particularly due to the majority of your comments being, at best, false but mostly malicious. I will address each of your points below: 1. We have not even taken pictures of any of the refurbished apartments... More

You can get a number of buses from Across the street that take you into central Edinburgh, a day ticket cost about £3.00. We used these buses everyday and they tended to come every 10... More

Thanks for your lovely review and I'm glad you enjoyed your trip to Edinburgh. I'm sorry you weren't too keen on the top floor apartment - we do accommodate requests for apartments on lower floors but at the time of your stay it was mainly just the top floor apartments which had been refurbished. I hope you get the chance... More
