“Accommodation from hell - filthy, black mould & the continuous stench of cigarette smoke!”
We had the unfortunate experience of staying here over Xmas and I can honestly say it is one of the worst places I've have stayed in my life - it ruined what was supposed to be a wonderful family… More

Response from the manager We are very disappointed but certainly not surprised to see this extremely negative review as we were threatened with this very action if did not adhere to a demand to provide a refund. We strongly refute their version of events.. The original property that these people booked is right in the city centre, with such city centre locations it should not be a surprise that there are restaurants and bars in the vicinity and therefore there has be to some anticipation that city centre noise pollution may be encountered on occasions. However despite this, their concerns were listened to and without question they were promptly offered a move, at no cost to themselves, to an alternative property and staff attended to assist them. We therefore ask any reader of this to consider, having just displayed how proactive and prompt we were to addressing their first concern. If the alternative property was in the condition as described in the exhaustive and endless list of issues, surely the first thing anybody would do would be to contact the operators immediately again and advise that the property was not in an acceptable condition, at no time were we contacted, which therefore did not provide us with an opportunity to attend to see these issues and address them by sending in a cleaning team. We are instead to believe they endured this appalling situation for another four days and then returned home, then waited nearly another two weeks before making a complaint. Their experience also contradicts the vast majority of other guests reviews across several review platforms. We accept that we are not infallible and things can be missed when properties are prepared, however we do expect to be given an opportunity to rectify issues if it is brought to our attention and it is standard practice that all guests are also advised when a team member meets them to provide access and show them around the property that if there is anything untoward or not to their satisfaction to contact the guest relations team on the number provided, exactly as this guest did previously at the other property when they had noise pollution concerns. It is a very regretful outcome and one we did not wish for but we cannot and will be not be coerced into providing unwarranted compensation simply because we have been threatened by a negative review.

Response from the manager Thank you for finding the time to leave a review for Edmonstone and there were many positive aspects to your stay. The confusion on bed set up was very unfortunate. Preparation of the properties is sub-contracted and any changes to a property preparation once a booking has commenced does unfortunately incur a fee for their time & laundry costs.

Response from the manager Thank you for finding the time to leave a review for the Edmonstone apt. It is always good to know that there were many aspects of the property which contributed to a successful visit to Edinburgh. I can only apologise for your experience with selfish smokers in the communal courtyard area, unfortunately we have no authority to stop this taking place when it occurs. However it is pleasing to know that it was not to detrimental to your overall experience. Regards, Glenn , ESC Ltd
