Easy to get to. Excellent location to meet my needs. Property was clean and spacious.
Considering the times we find ourselves in we felt safe. Only thing I would say is there wasn’t a cleaning station when you entered the house as stated in instructions. However there was antibacterial wash in the bathroom and kitchen. We would definitely stay here again.
The property was good for us since we needed a kitchen to cook a traditional Thanksgiving meal. The stove was gas so that was a nice surprise. A 8lb turkey fit fine. There were two bedrooms with linens, wardrobes, a dresser and night stands. Towels and shampoo was provided. The fridge was also a good size. Dining room had a table and 4 chairs. There was a sofa and chair as well. The TV was small by today’s standards but it had service. WiFi was sketchy though. It worked adequately though. The location was great as next door was a great little restaurant called South Pour which had at least breakfast and lunch with traditional, vegetarian, and vegan options which were all terrific. The bus stops right outside so transportation isn’t a problem. Walked to several grocery stores which were close by. No noise except for the odd ambulance.
Absolutely lovely apartment. Stayed with the family. About 20 minute walk into town. Would definitely stay there again

Very good location, nice space, easy check in and check out. Friendly staffs. Two issues: the wifi is not very good, hardly able to do the work in the evening, slightly better during the day. Extractor in the kitchen not working.
Overall, I will recommend the apartment.
The rooms were lovely and clean lots of space, kitchen area lovely everything we needed was available. Great location not far from royal Mile etc will definitely book to come here again.
Great location. Well kept. High ceilings. Could use a couple of floors lamps and a coat rack. 20 minutes from Royal Mile with lots of shops and restaurants nearby. Cosmopolitan. Parking not included, 5 min walk - £10/d until 8. Overnight parking free on street/alley nearby but move by 730am. Buses out front. Helpful host Manu.
I love having a home away from home when I travel so I can make my own meals and relax and this place was perfect for that. It's a little away from the main tourist area which is great if you want quiet and don't mind a walk or bus ride (which was exactly what we wanted).
Easy to get to. Lovely ground floor apartment with outside area. Great communication from start to finish. Only th it to change would be the pillows- not to great !
The property was roomy and comfortable. Close to most things you would want to see. However it was very noisy from the ambulances going past all day with their sirens on. The restaurant downstairs was very good.
This place is well equipped and convenient. It was clean, close to Edinburgh First for my conference. Newington St is quieter than Waverly Station area but has good restaurants and close to Meadows
Recently we've been drawn more into renting out apartments rather than hotel rooms, the cost you pay for a room can be much better use in an apartment where you generally have more space. Southside Apartments were very nice and generally pleased with our stay. It was a short walk to the centre of Ednburgh and there were plenty of places to eat or drink locally. The apartment was spacious and clean and had plenty of facilities we needed. The only issue was the shared courtyard at the back where unfortunately the same night we were there, there was also a group of people next to us who were outside (assuming fairly tipsy) making noise at 3am. There were times they felt like they were in the same apartment as us, which illustrates how the noise is fairly difficult to cancel out when you're inside the apartment. Apart from this, our stay was very enjoyable.
Very spacious clean apartment.
Clean towels and toiletries available as well as tea/coffee making facilities. Great location if you want to be near Edinburgh centre.
The apartment was perfectly situated for what our stay entailed, parking was a slight issue initially but was soon sorted. We did arrive on one of the coldest and snowiest weeks and so it was perfect that we didn't need the car for the 5 days we stayed and could walk everywhere. We would definitely stay here again :)
This is an apartment in the middle of Edinburgh within easy walking distance to University of Edinburgh and to many other shops and restaurants. Bright, clean and warm apartment that is comfortable. The apartment is equipped with a full kitchen and is close to markets if one wants to cook. I did restaurant take-out for my stay as there are so many restaurants nearby. The owner also arranged for my return ride to the airport at 6 am on a Sunday and all went smoothly. I had a heating problem on the first night after I arrived and called the owner/manager and he had someone stopped by right away. I enjoyed my stay and very much appreciate the attention and help!
