Flat itself is great, As everyone has said, not suitable for those who cannot climb 3 lots of stairs
Flat itself is great, As everyone has said, not suitable for those who cannot climb 3 lots of stairs (top floor flat) and lots of building work seems to be going on (we were a weekend stay so not effected). That said, just a few things kept it off 5* for us. First the good things, really clean and comfortable, great heating and plenty of hot water for my son and I. Ideal location for us (10 minute walk to the University and 15 minute to the castle. Elements that would have made it better, the radio doesn’t work and the TV needs a 5 minute warm up before the picture stops flickering. That and the fact that the boiler clock ticks loudly (annoying when you cannot but hear it at night) means we give it 4*.

Valleyfield Street Edinburgh Apartment
First off this apartment was as described and is really nicely furnished, loads of space and very warm with easy to control heating. It has a large open plan kitchen and living space and large bedrooms. There is regeneration going on around but the noise intrusion is minimal and being on the 3rd floor helps further. It is fully equipped and although their are loads of dishwasher tablets in the property we couldn't locate a dishwasher, maybe the tablets are for some cleaning hack! In 10 mins you can walk to Grass market although with two children this took us 15 mins but on largely very quiet and safe streets. Yes, it is on the third floor but the stairs are easy enough unless you are elderly or otherwise unable but this point is clear on the description. What I would say is the entrance to the block and stairwell is quite forbidding (think Trainspotting) and with some cleaning, paint and indoor plants could be made more much welcoming. It does shave off some of the feel good ambience of the really nice apartment. The area is fab, no shortage of shops, bars and food, everything you need and a huge park area at the end of the street. It is listed as a no smoking apartment but being non smokers we could immediately smell odour of tobacco and it appears some residents might be leaning out of the window to smoke as a cigarette butt was present in the window inner frame when opened. This odour did reduce our enjoyment of what would otherwise be a 5 star review.

Great flat with everything one could need
Overall i enjoyed my stay in this cute property as the flat looked exactly like the photos. Very well equipped and extremely clean. My only complaints were regarding the dishwasher and the wifi- the dishwasher was out of order when i arrived and throughout my entire stay and the wifi was also not working. I received no reply when i emailed about the internet not being functional and received no reply- i was also self isolating for two weeks and therefore had no other option to spend more money on additional phone data. I also did not receive move in instructions until a few hours prior to my arrival only after i had contacted the agency. Overall the flat was lovely, clean, and a perfect spot to self isolate and my only issues lie with the management's communication- not with the actual property.

Lovely flat exactly like the photos
I stayed in this flat while self isolating after returning to the UK and found everything I could have needed! Very clean and well kept and the flat looked exactly like the listing! The only issue I had was that the wifi was not working the entire time i stayed and i received no reply from the management when i emailed about this issue. Along with this, I did not receive entry instructions until a few hours before i was due to land in Edinburgh! Overall would love to stay here again and would recommend this property!

Great Place
Excellent apartment in a lovely area of the city. Real nice decor and had everything you need. Only thing i would say was the internet was brilliant, but that is the only thing I could say could be better.

A lovely stay in a great apartment
The apartment was exceptionally clean, cosy, warm and perfect for our weekend in Edinburgh. It is VERY well equipped - they've really thought of everything. Location is good with a pub just a few doors away, a supermarket at the end of the street and within walking distance of all the Edinburgh sights (about 20 mins to the Castle, The Royal Mile, The Grassmarket and 30 mins to Waverley Station, Princes Street and the main shopping area). Be aware that the apartment is on the top (3rd) floor with no lift, however the flip-side of that is that it feels very safe and secure. We would definitely stay again!
