Everything was very clean and all the communication before and during our stay was really prompt and helpful. ##### Cathy K.

Clean and perfect for our needs Great location. Close to bars and restaurants and a short walk for the sightseeing and the tram to Murrayfield Gareth, as a host was beyond helpful, kept in touch throughout our journey and the bottle of Prosecco was a welcome treat when we arrived after a longer than anticipated journey Definitely, book to stay here again ##### Catherine H. Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Boel B. 5 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Small, clean flat within walking distance to everything Building: first impression not the best as greeted by large bins and were also not initially sure about the safety as the flat is located in a council type block of flats (there are also some dodgy strip clubs a bit further up the street). However, the flat itself is very bright and clean, and the shower has good pressure and is hot! There is shampoos, hand wash, instant coffee and sugar which is all great. There is no dishwasher (although washer/dryer) and would only use the kitchen for very basic cooking but there are so many good restaurants within a short walking distance so that is not a problem. We felt a little cramped staying with two children and a dog but for a couple this is prefect. Furthermore, the host is really good. ##### Boel B. Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 4 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Mooi verblijf op super locatie Het appt. is klein (we waren wel met 4 volwassenen en 2 honden ;-)) maar schoon, van alles voorzien en op een super locatie!! De eigenaar super attentive en behulpzaam. Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Resident Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Resident-Edinburgh.h100619545.Hotel-Information) > > [Point A Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Point-A-Hotel-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h37166264.Hotel-Information) > > [Malmaison Edinburgh City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Malmaison-Edinburgh-St-Andrews-Square.h38786208.Hotel-Information) > > [Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Mount-Royal-Hotel-Edinburgh-By-The-Unlimited-Collection.h802180.Hotel-Information) > > [Grove House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Grove-House-Hotel.h662253.Hotel-Information) > > [Fingal - A Luxury Floating Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Fingal.h38753319.Hotel-Information) > > [The Balmoral Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Balmoral-Hotel.h9339.Hotel-Information) > > [Princes Street Party Palace Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Princes-Street-Party-Palace-Edinburgh.h17520400.Hotel-Information) > > [Adelphi Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Adelphi-Hotel.h7734202.Hotel-Information) > > [Heeton Concept Aparthotel Edinburgh Queen Street](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Native-Edinburgh.h24151306.Hotel-Information) > > [The Rutland Hotel & Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Rutland-Hotel-Apartments.h2942183.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western The Hilcroft Hotel West Lothian](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Best-Western-The-Hilcroft-Hotel-West-Lothian.h1504.Hotel-Information) > > [Goblin Ha'](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Goblin-Ha.h9843141.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h4035314.Hotel-Information) > > [Quartermile serviced apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Quartermile-Serviced-Apartments.h74811613.Hotel-Information) > > [The Roseate Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Roseate-Edinburgh.h1381332.Hotel-Information) > > [Britannia Hotel Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Britannia-Hotel-Edinburgh.h4533.Hotel-Information) > > [Destiny Student Shrubhill - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Destiny-Student-Shrubhill.h12691487.Hotel-Information) > > [Tynecastle Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Tynecastle-Park-Hotel.h99931255.Hotel-Information) > > [YOTEL Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-YOTEL-Edinburgh.h36667881.Hotel-Information) > > [voco Edinburgh - Royal Terrace by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Voco-Edinburgh-Royal-Terrace.h4895.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex Haymarket Station Apartment](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Apex-Haymarket-Station-Apartment.h70393771.Hotel-Information) > > [Beaverbank Place - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Beaverbank-Place-Campus-Residence.h6915060.Hotel-Information) > > [Staycity Aparthotels, Edinburgh, West End](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Staycity-Aparthotels-West-End.h4435260.Hotel-Information) > > [Garner Edinburgh Haymarket by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Garner-Edinburgh-Haymarket-By-IHG.h5589159.Hotel-Information) > > [The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Caledonian-Edinburgh.h4198.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Edinburgh Murrayfield](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Leonardo-Edinburgh-Murrayfield.h579949.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh City West by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-City-West.h13364.Hotel-Information) > > [100 Princes Street](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-100-Princes-Street.h74521691.Hotel-Information) ---
