The location was great. However, we had no idea that there was construction around the entire building. It would have been nice to know that ahead of time, so we would know what to expect. The construction made it a little difficult to find the entrance when we arrived after dark.
Also, the refrigerator door wouldn't latch, so we propped a chair in front of it using an area rug to keep it shut. We have a one year old and needed the refrigerator to store milk and baby food. We notified the owner immediately and were there for three nights. He got back to us the next day and said he'd try to send someone over to look at it but, no one came and we were never offered compensation of any kind.
On the subject of our toddler, the windows are old and thin and tge apartment is a very busy nightlife area. It was our first time to Edinburgh, so we had no idea the nightlife was as vibrant as it is. We heard loud tourists yelling, throwing construction cones, kicking garbage cans, and whatever else from about 11pm until nearly 4am each night. Then each morning we woke up to construction workers hammering away on the sidewalk and road on both sides of the building.
It was less than ideal and knowing what we know now, we'll stay somewhere else next time.
If you're planning on being a drunk tourist this is the place for you.
