Great apartment! Was only here for 1 night but had everything you need for a longer stay. It was very clean and comfortable. Very easy check in and checkout process. Only recommendation is to check the temperature before people check in as the flat was 24 degree when I arrived and it was already hot outside.

It was great to have a full apartment to ourselves, but the check in process was a bit of a shambles. We hadn’t received the check in information and upon arriving at the property to find it unmanned, we had a lot of trouble calling the emergency number to connect with someone. About one hour later, we were in. The room itself was pleasant, but there is no cooling and the shower was luke warm, at best. We also noticed light coming from behind the robe at night and identified a small door in the bottom of the robe, which was disturbing. Turned out to be access to some pipes etc. The lift takes a long time and the voiceover is extremely loud.

Great little apartment with all the amenities you could need. Was impressed by how large and well-stocked the kitchen was. Washer/dryer was great to have although you’ll need to buy your own detergent! Easy walk to plenty of pubs, restaurants, Old Town, Royal Mile, Princes St Gardens, Waverley station etc.

This was perfect for our family of 3 adults. Plenty of space and so convenient!! The location is excellent, especially if you like to walk around the city. Everything was spotless and comfortable. The beds were fantastic! I would love to stay here again. Customer service was amazing, our flight was canceled and they were able to book us for another night. I highly recommend!!

Cosy 2-bedroom apartment. Clean and well equipped with kitchenette, washer and dryer. Good for family stay. About 8 mins walk to St James Quarter where the parking is. Entry to the apartment building is in a back alley. While it’s well lit, the occasional noise from the garbage bins can be disturbing in the night. Overall, still good.
