A few days in Edinburgh
Apartment was very clean, comfortable and spacious. We were met by the owner who took us through what we needed to know which was great. Able to walk into central Edinburgh within 35-40 minutes which is a bonus. Overall very good and would recommend staying here when you visit Edinburgh.

Wonderful Place
We loved this apartment! It was perfectly suited for 3 adults. It had everything we needed, and things we didn't know we needed. The location is within walking distance to shops, restaurants, and tourist venues. We did take a taxi to and from train station because of luggage. The apartment is in a quiet residential area. You will not be disappointed!!! Absolutely great value with a fantastic host!

Just brilliant
The apartment has a perfect location: quiet area but only a five minute walk from buzzling leith walk. You feel at home from the minute, everything is where it is expected to be and nothing necessary is missing. Parking is no problem. Only thing to think about: the garbage is not easy to be allocated to the correct outside. Three bins , no clear statement where goes what. Bottles? Organic stuff? Plastics? Paper? Rest? Still, that doesn't take any points off the apartment. Very friendly and helpful owner solved and explained everything. All in all: if we return, our choice is clear.

Great two bedroom, two bathroom flat walking distance from the city center. Slawomir met us at the property when we arrived to show us around and answer any questions we might have. It was so nice having a kitchen, so we didn’t have to eat every meal out. The flat was very quiet and just a few minutes away from a grocery store. Would definitely recommend this place!

Short Trip to Edinburgh
Three of us had an opportunity visit Edinburgh for a 4 day stay. The apartment worked out great for us as we were able to walk around the city from the apartment. It only took 10-15 minutes to get to the theatre district area.
The property manager responded promptly, met us when we arrived and gave great recommendations. It was a great trip for us.

Lovely property
We found the rental exactly as described and displayed in the listing. The kitchen was well equipped for those who choose to cook some of their own meals while visiting Edinburgh. The location is near bus and tram lines, as well as restaurants and smaller grocery stores. Slawomir was very good about keeping in touch before our stay, as well as assiting when we had questions during our stay. I would definitely stay here again.

Excellent location to everything!
We had the best time in Scotland. This flat was perfect for our family (Grandma, Child, 2 Parents).
Slawomir greeted us at the flat, showed us around and provided us with helpful hints about the area and local eateries.
We purchased the Hop on / Hop off tour to get around and see Edinburgh. We were able walk to St. Andrew Square to pick it up and conveniently to see the city. It was a good 20-25 minute walk to the square.
We also rented a vehicle for a few days and toured around the countryside (Glasgow, Midhope Castle, Blackness Castle, Linlithgow Palace, Stirling Castle, St. Andrew’s, Fort William, Malloy, Etc). Parking at the flat can be tricky. The first night we couldn’t find a spot behind the building or down the street and we couldn’t get the key fob to work for the underground, so we attempted to park at the building next door (which says for Allanfield residents)… bad choice on our part - we got a parking ticket. Our bad! A 60 pound ticket.
We stayed for a week (in July) and couldn’t have asked for a better time. The beds are true kings (twin XLs put together), firm but comfortable and the bedding was nice. It was very nice to have 2 bathrooms - however, we are bigger people and couldn’t comfortably fit in the shower, so we all used the bathtub/shower combo for bathing.
The flat is in a central location, perfect for those using Edinburgh as their main location. We really enjoyed our stay at this flat. Would love to stay here again.

The property was wonderful. The kitchen was fully stocked (even included plastic wrap!) and lots of cleaning products, soaps, dishwasher soap, detergent, etc. It is walkable to most everything (a little over a mile to the Royal Mike) including groceries, restaurants, etc. Slawomir met us and explained everything to us. He is a great host and very prompt in communicating. I highly recommend this property.

He loves what he does and it shows. The place was exactly as we thought from the pictures/description. Having laundry there was wonderful and esspresso even better! The location couldnt have been better and we easily ran in and out throughout our days. Truly can't recommend staying here enough!

Our stay was great and Slawomir was a wonderful host who provided excellent communication throughout. As listed, this is an apartment complex so you can expect some noise from upstairs neighbors. The beds in the second bedroom were on the firm side. These were our only two concerns. Otherwise, the apartment was very clean and well appointed. Secured lobby doors, a lift, and two bathrooms were nice features. The closest Lothian bus stops and grocery stores were about a 5-minute walk. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the apartment.
