The electronic access was very easy to use and provided smooth check-in and check-out. There was an issue with the ceiling fan but they sent someone to fix it immediately and was all taken care of :) Great location, very close to Haymarket station that will take you to most places. Lots of food options in the area to choose from.

This was a very average property. Fine if it is on at a cheap price, but otherwise you can get much better options in the hotels within a few yards from this property. The lounge area in the apartment I stayed in was, frankly, quite horrible, so I closed the door on it and forgot about it. The bedroom was spartan, but roomy. the bathroom fine, except the glass at the sunk hadn't been cleaned! (ugh). There are no facilities worth mentioning. Overall, very disappointing and not an option I'll choose again.

An OK stay but could be cleaner
I was disappointed that cleanliness was not upto what I would want. There was sweet wrappers and bits of food in the mattress of the sofa bed as we unfolded it, very dusty skirting boards and a Rentokil box at the side of the bed which really put me off. It’s a shame really as the furnishings themselves were very nice and it’s in a very handy location

Misleading photos, better value elsewhere.
Very poor standard of accommodation. The photographs are very misleading. Initially we were unable to access the room because the code we were provided with was incorrect. We waited around on the street for this to be rectified, once it was it was changed again the next day! The room had very little natural light due to being in a basement and the one small window being at the opposite end to the 'living spaces'. The so called kitchen amounted to a microwave stood on a fridge, a kettle, toaster and the crockery, utensils etc in the same cupboard as the hairdryer. The 'kitchen sink' is at the other end of the 'suit', it comprises of a small plastic caddy with sponge, scourer and fairy liquid stood next to the bathroom sink. Bathroom towels were in rags, walls marked and the shower wouldn't drain. For the price there are better locations and much better standard accommodations. Avoid.

It is in a good location, away from the business of the old city, but close enough to walk. Loads of restaurants and shops nearby.

Great location but poor standard of cleanliness. Shower didn’t work properly as the shower head doesn’t stay in the holder when the water was on and had to be hand held. Booking included shower toiletries, but only 2 small sachets of shower gel provided for a booking of 4 people for 2 nights. Kitchen pot scrub was filthy. Sofa bed in very poor condition and kept shedding its coating leaving constant dirt on the floor with no cleaning utensils and had to contact customer service who sent us on a random search through the building to eventually find a small dust pan and brush. Apartment only cleaned every 3 days according to the information but questionable whether that was actually done to any standard, especially during the current Covid climate. Considering the cost, very poor standard of overall accommodation, but at least the bed was comfortable!

Great Stay in Edinburgh
The Edinburgh City Suites were lovely. I stayed with two friends I haven’t seen in ages. The Suite was well appointed so we bought groceries and cooked and spent a lovely night enjoying the suite. Check in was simple and secure. Thanks for a lovely stay.

While I enjoyed the limited contact and lack of front office attendant, I did find myself assisting another guest whom had difficulties with the key code system. The apartment itself was good sized, super clean, and stocked with more than I expected. The location is perfect for catching the tram and there is plenty within walking distance. I plan on staying here again my next visit to Scotland.

Average room, good location
The location itself is good - but this place does not have a reception and we were not emailed in advance with check in details. The shower didn’t drain well and the toilet seat was broken. We didn’t use the kitchen facilities but there were brochures in there with information about the area.

Pros and cons
Great little unit. Very clean and tidy. Lots of room to move. Very close to shops. Good value for money. The area is a bit noisy at night. No elevator was very hard with 2 large suitcases.

A great location , functional apartment,”.
A great location dry close to the Tram for easy access in to the city or to the airport . The sofa bed was not too comfy but adequate the double bed was much better . Small kitchen area kettle fridge toaster microwave. Boiler makes Constant noise at night in the sofa bed room. And take eye shades as the blind wasn’t working so when the daylight streams through at 5am you’ll be awake !! That being said reasonable priced and great location, need a bit of a renovate in places and electrics seemed a bit hit and miss Good free WiFi Don’t expect to see staff on the desk We had to hunt high and low for toilet roll as we only were left a few sheets , and needs must !!! Had to help ourselves to one reception as we couldn’t find anyone working at the location.
