broken tap insufficient space

The tap in the bathroom was broken, made washing up difficult. The lounge did not have enough space for four people to sit comfortably. We felt cramped. Getting the internet access details needed for check-in was also inconvenient. It added an extra step to the process! The pictures online made it difficult to know which room we were actually getting, this caused confusion.

The apartment's location on the royal mile was perfect. I found everything i wanted to see within easy walking distance. Customer service responded quickly via text message which was convenient. The breakfast items left in the room were a lovely touch. The accommodation suited my family of four perfectly.

I noticed a slight delay in the contactless entry system but it was quickly resolved with assistance.

the apartment had a well-equipped kitchen with everything needed for cooking. the location was ideal, close to many attractions. it was convenient to have a café downstairs offering a discount.
