    “One of the best stays I have ever had.”

    Things I like
    The apartment was beautiful and clean, and the staff really kind. They greet us at the door, showed us around and leave a folder with detailed information about the facilities. And the location was perfect! Really close to everything.
    Things I don’t like
    I can honestly say there is nothing we didn’t like of our stay.

    “lovely place to stay. Exactly as expected. would recommend to friends and family.”

    Things I like
    great location. close to places to eat and lots of sites. comfortable and clean. Being in a lower level meant it was cooler in the warm summer weather.
    Things I don’t like
    The meet up process didn’t work seamlessly, but the contacts were responsive and helpful.

    “Good location and nice hosts, but I would not stay there again due to poor bathroom lighting which was constantly annoyi”

    Things I like
    Location near many sights in Old Town Edinburgh. Felt safe. Responsive hosts. Easy check in.
    Things I don’t like
    Bathroom lighting is ridiculously dim. I could not see to put my makeup on and there was not enough light for my husband to see to put his contacts in. The dim bathroom light was the most annoying thing! If the host is trying to save electricity, please choose any room besides the bathroom to have dim lighting. It was literally like a single 10 watt bulb. Also, toilet seat was loose and would move 4 inches to the side whenever you sat down on it. Clothes dryer did not work for us (I alerted host and they said they would arrange repair.) Kitchen tiny. When trying to maneuver in tiny kitchen I kept bumping the washing machine accidentally, causing various washer/dryer programs to start when I didn’t want them to. No screens on windows. Expensive for what it was, but I suppose we were paying for the location.
