Summary: This has a stunning view of the Edinburgh Castle and is walkable to most of the major sights. We gave a 2-star rating because (1) There are several pubs across the busy street from the apartment building that were quite noisy into the wee hours of the night. There was no mention of this in the listing or communications. (2) Two of the heating units were held together by duct tape so we did not use those. The toaster had a note left by a previous visitor stating that using the toaster blew out all the electricity in the apartment. (3) Unlike the booking photos, the sofa was covered by a knitted blanket that hid the fact that the leather on the cushions was completely gone revealing the stuffing. (4) The most serious safety concern involves the bathtub/shower. The tub is high and extremely slippery and no rubber mat or non-slip surface was provided. There was nothing to prevent a serious fall when entering or leaving the tub. (5) We wrote to Joivy/Altido (management company) about these issues and they sent a technician later the next day to fix what he could. He said the heating units needed to be replaced. (6) Be aware: Joivy/Altido charged a “Markup Fee” of approximately the cost of a night. Their response was that the fee was charged by the booking platform (VRBO). When we contacted VRBO they assured us that, as is posted on their website, they do not charge additional fees. To date, there is no response back from Joivy/Altido Edinburgh.
