Summary: The location of the propery is excellent, just a short walk from Calton Hill, Leith Walk and the St James Quarter. We booked the property for a week during the festival for a wedding. When we turned up at 5pm, we had to do some cleaning, removing nappies, lumps of hair and washing out mould from the bathroom bins and then we had to go out and buy toilet paper and hand soap for the bathrooms without them. It wasn't a great arrival experience and the next day, it felt like a joke apology, we recieved some doughnuts for two thirds of the party and a bottle of prosecco which didn't get drunk. There wasn't any washing up items either, so another early trip to the shop to get them. The king size beds were often pushed together singles too which felt a bit poorly advertised. Lastly, the downstairs toilet had holes in the wall and smelt of cavity wall, but we were just told in the email beforehand this was the way things were. For a lot of money spent for staying for a family wedding it was a poor experience, missing the basic considerations of a rental and I think if you're spending this amount of money then look for somewhere that's got the basic covered, then plus that something special which should be about the same price.
