8/10 Good

"Yeri mükemmel. Resepsiyonda 24 saat bi çalışan duruyormuş, gece vardı biri. Sorumu etraflıca cevapladı. Oda temizdi. Manzarası güzeldi kaleye doğru. Arlinkin kalktığı durağa yürüme mesafesi. - Banyo-tuvalet çok küçük, puanı oradan kırdım."

Heeton Concept Aparthotel Edinburgh Queen Street

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The size of the room was great for the price compared to other accommodations in the city. We enjoyed having the kitchen space to store snacks and make tea. We were disappointed to not have full washer and dryer in the unit as expected. The laundry room was only available during the times we were out exploring the city. There was some staining on the sofa we assumed/ hoped just from wet garments or bags being placed on the light colored upholstery. Overall we enjoyed our stay."
