Edinburgh Church Apartments

  : The location of the apartments is great for exploring the city and there are some incredible finds locally for food. Having use of a living room meant we were able to relax once our little one had gone to bed. We paid for cot hire during our stay and lovely bedding was provided for this which was a nice touch. Natalie was quick to respond to my messages however the resolution not fantastic.
  : Prior to arrival a £200 damage deposit was taken for the stay. This in itself was fine however I therefore expected that the property would be top notch, it however wasn't. The flooring to the downstairs hall was heavily stained, bathroom flush and tap damages, kitchen floor times cracked and wobbly in places, damage to the leatherette of the sofa bed and generally looked in need of some love. On arrival the apartment was not particularly clean in site of there being a £30 'service charge' for cleaning and bedding. The freezer was off on arrival and smelt vile and was mouldy inside, I wish I had never opened the door as the smell lingered for the whole of our stay. This was 'fixed'/switch turned on by the handy man very quickly however not cleaned and still not usable.

  : Great location near to lots of amenities, great transport links, nice places to eat in the area.
  : Thought that the £30 for housekeeping was rather a lot for a 1 night's stay and it should be based on what's used etc, also the security deposit is rather steep, didn't notice this till after booking, never stayed anywhere were it was that high before.Small couch not very comfy to sit on for a while.

  : The quirkinesses of it being within a church! It’s location to the city centre was great as well.The owner was very attentive with providing additional requirements (parking permit) cot for baby.
  : There were some areas of the property that needed attention. The bath plug was broken, the oven extractor fan didn’t work and the floor in the living room was damaged in the corner.

  : The location was very good, Close to the Haymarket train station and only a 10 min walk to the Grassmarket area.The walk into town has plenty of good pubs ,restaurant's and cafe's on the way.The flat has 2 good sized bedrooms and the kitchen/lounge area has ample space for all.
  : Parking in the area is a pain. If you are going midweek its £9 for 4 hrs (08:30 to 17:30 )but free overnight you would be better off going on the just park app and park in the distillery lane parking (location id 151948).

  : nice location, lovely apartment, good facilities. Good assistance with the problems I encountered.
  : the lock box to get the keys was difficult to use in the dark, I was told to use the orange key, the other was yellow, again difficult to distinguish in the dark, the entry instructions stated the apartment was across the courtyard, the courtyard is actually a pathway down the side of the church which, again, in the dark appears to not be related to the church so I did not know where I was going. The bath plug had to be removed with a sucker and the smart tv was slow and intermittent.
