Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I have bipolar disorder and on new medication, also had a recent head injury. The receptionist not only slandered me to a friend by phoning him threatening to call the police and accused me of being intoxicated. I have spoken to my GP and the citizen's advice along with my friend Malcolm Wood who is a retired lawyer and have proof of the incident and prodf that I was NOT intoxicated. Not one person offered to help me. I was judged amd discriminated against to a level of epic proportions. I will be taking action against this as this so-called aparthotel has breached my privacy and is liable for defamation. I have videos of the the other issues which include the entry doors left open on for over 20 minutes and no staff around, the other evidence that highlights the unsafe, dirty, negative results of this Horrendous hovel.

The property is conveniently located one street back from the Royal Mile. It is one of the only apartments in Edinburgh with parking and a lift, which is handy if travelling with families. However, the wifi did not work the whole time (which was a common complaint on other reviews) and the floor was soooo noisy (squeaky - poorly laid) you couldn't walk around without waking up everyone in the flat
