Stay April 2025

We had a very nice stay here. Good location. 10 mins walk to castle. Busses and trams stop at the end of the road. Large and clean. The bedroom is large. A 6ft bed would be better. No microwave was disappointing. More cooking utensils needed. No spatular, wooden spoon? Larger thicker bath towels would have been good. Bedroom door very noisy squeak which was annoying. Need oil. All small things but make a difference. Would recommend though.

The place is great: clean, modern, spacious, nicely equipped (even with a small safe - like in a hotel!). Very easy to get to with a tram stop nearby. There is a storage room if you get there too early or need to leave hours before your next destination. However, there are couple things to know: - Unit 5 is on the second (European or third by US standards) floor without elevator (the stairs are very wide though) - There is not any coffee maker (like Nespresso or whatever with capsules) - There are no hooks close to the entrance to hang a wet or your winter coats - There are less than enough hooks in the bathroom close to the shower - There is not a single outlet in the bathroom for a hairdryer - The bathroom is very humid after a shower.

Nice Home Away From Home

Apartment had lots of room, was pristine, and exactly as pictured. It was enough space for my husband and I. The in unit washer/dryer was a bonus! Communication with reps was excellent.

Destiny Scotland Review

This place was perfect for our week stay in Edinburgh. It was close to all the excitement without hearing all the excitement. Gave us enough room to spread out after a long day of exploring. Very happy with our stay!

The apartment was clean and comfortable and located very close to the West End tram stop with several grocery stores within walking distance. The West End is an easy walk from many of the main attractions. It would be nice if the apartment had a few staples like olive oil, vinegar, and salt and pepper, etc. and something other than coffee sticks and a tiny stovetop espresso maker.

Huge apartment, great place to stay!

This flat was great, super clean and absolutely huge. The living room kitchen area is really big, as is the bedroom, the bathroom is good with a really great shower. Everything was super clean, plus they have a very clear recycling system which is great to see. The key code system for entry was super easy and clear, and the luggage room was really helpful and easy to access. Loved our stay!
