This apartment is beautiful - immaculately clean (as were the communal areas of the building too, even the lift), very spacious, stylish, comfortable and the most well-equipped place we have ever stayed in.
Mary and Anil met us to hand over keys and explain essentials (and a folder in the apartment also gave plenty of useful information) and were completely charming about us turning up unexpectedly early too.
Garage parking was secure and very welcome.
A bathroom plus an en suite was ideal for us, it meant that there were no queues for the shower in the mornings.
Those little extras - milk and juice in the fridge, tea and coffee, cereals, biscuits etc, cleaning products, bathroom products, a hair dryer ...- all helped to make us feel at home.
Equipment is high quality - decent kettle, oven, dishwasher etc - and furniture (including beds) is also of a high standard, comfortable and spotlessly clean. There's a selection of games, a very fancy TV with Sky, fast reliable broadband... even a pair of binoculars for viewing Calton Hill.
On a nice day, the apartment is in comfortable strolling distance of the city. On a rainy day, it's only a bus ride away. There is a Tesco Extra on the ground floor of the same building, and plenty of takeaways within a very short walk. A ten minute stroll will bring you to some lovely bars and restaurants, and a few extra minutes' walking will take you to the new entertainment complex by the docks.
Best thing of all though, Anil and Mary were so welcoming and personable. Book this apartment with confidence.
There's absolutely nothing for us to criticise - we were very happy here.
