Great for the Price!

Exactly what I was looking for. Very reasonably priced and in a fantastic location. All of the logistics were easy. The apartment was clean, fairly well apportioned, and the building was quiet. I would definitely recommend this spot for someone looking for a modestly priced stay, especially if only 1-2 people.

Uninhabitable- Water had to be shut off

The apartment is nicely refurbished, but it is in a very old building. A pipe burst while we were staying there and we had to turn off the water. I spent the day running down the street to use the bathroom in a coffee shop. The property company/owner did not provide timely relocation options (took ~7 hours) and by that time we had already booked a hotel. The manager refuses to reimburse all expenses. Know that if you stay here, you will likely need to make other arrangements.

Dingy apartment

This property is long overdue for a renovation. The location is excellent, but the apartment is not somewhere that you wanted to spend anytime. It had mold in the bathroom, kitchen, bedroom and by the windows. The base boards had not been wiped down and were dusty. The carpet was very worn out. The counter tops had pot burns on them . Just did not have the charm the picture showed. The building itself is also in need of renovation so it turns you off right as you enter the front doors. On a positive note: the location is fantastic close to the Royal Mile, Haymarket and has many grocery stores and restaurants near by. The bed was very comfortable. Other than the mold and the dust on baseboards and in the crevices for the sliding closet door the rest of the apartment was clean, the washer and dryer worked and it had good sized refrigerator and freezer.
