Dean Village Cottage

Very disappointed with the accommodation. Positive: The flat was in a good location for Edinburgh city centre. The shower was a very good standard. Negative: The path to the flat consisted of roughly cut back nettles; it could have been planted out with beautiful summer flowers. Several flowers pots were lying from previous years. The layout of the kitchen was the worst I've ever seen; the cooker extended over the sink and it was necessary to work at a 45 degree angle to one's left to wash dishes. Both taps were very difficult to turn on. The pedal of the bin was broken. The sofa in the sitting area was grubby at the front and rather sunken in the middle. There was a stain on the arm of the large chair in the corner. The chairs were very wobbly and didn't feel safe to sit on. The whole place required painting and the flooring was lifting in several places. The coffee table and TV table were far too big for the room. Nothing matched; resembled a collection of stuff from a charity shop.There was a large slab of marble resembling the base of a previous fireplace under a radiator! There was only one open space in the built in wardrobe in the bedroom that was clear to put our clothes into; the owner's things were roughly stuffed into all the other spaces and below the bed.

Gera komunikacija su savininkais. Puiki vieta. Tvarkingas butas. Positive: Puiki vieta. Negative: Pagal kainą, butas galėtų būti geresnis.

Recommended Positive: A unique apartment in a UNESCO house in a UNESCO district – Dean Village. Only one quiet neighbor next door, a permanent resident. The apt is as shown in the pictures – nice, comfortable, well equipped in household and cooking utensils, numerous tableware, cutlery, pots and STUNNING views from the windows. It was quite cold in Edinburgh, but there is central heating in the apt, so no worries. Shopping - no problem, basic shops in nearby (20 minutes on foot) Princess Street. Very good communication with the hosts, immediate response to all questions and querries. Negative: However, some improvement is necessary, e.eg. a sofa which needs new cushions or TV which is quite difficult to set. Also, thick, dark curtains would be a good idea, especially from the entrance side.

Fantastisch verblijf, we komen zeker terug! Positive: De ligging was perfect en we hadden alles wat we nodig hadden. Negative: Het bed was iets minder, we zakten nogal weg in de toplaag.

Negative: Only thing which was uncomfortable was that the flat was cold even when heating was on.
