    The apartment is ideally located, clean, quiet and comfortable. The price is right, you can't get any better for this money in Edinburgh center. The hostess is the kindest you could hope for, super eager to help with anything you need or give any info required. Highly recommended place

    Everything was ok.

    Amazing location - 5 minutes walking to Surgeon's Museum, 10 minutes to National Museum of Scotland, but the apartment is in very calm neighborhood. Two bedrooms- bigger with biggest wardrobe, smaller with small one. The apartment is very good equipped - we had everything we need during one week stay. If you don't want to take many clothes on your trip - there is also a washing machine. The soap and shower gel were also in very good quality. Very clean. The owner is very helpful. It's worth to ask her about places to see and eat in Edinburgh. I think it's very good quality- price ratio.

    Just a recommendation, maybe some blankets for the couches and a toilet brush in the bathroom. Everything else was great!

    This property is stunning! Wendy is so helpful and met us at the apartment to show us around and give us recommendations. The apartment had everything you could need,the coffee machine and milk frother being our favourites. It’s situated right beside a tesco and about a 10 minute walk to the royal mile but there’s bus stops all along the road. I would recommend this place to anybody!

    Nothing.

    Wendy (host) was fantastic. She was really helpful and responsive and so easy to deal with. Really well decorated and furnished apartment and very generous coffee, tea, biscuits, etc.. provided. Wendy went to the effort of providing additional bedding for the sofa bed and she was there to greet us on arrival on a bitterly cold evening. Carpark provided but pretty much anywhere we wanted to go was an easy and enjoyable walk.

    There was nothing to dislike about this place at all. Because it was Xmas we took our own Xmas lights to make the place look more festive

    Gilmours Entry is a little gem of a place. The host was amazing. She met us at the place and explained everything to us. She messaged us with recommendations for restaurants etc..... good sight seeing places aswel. There was everything you could want in the apartment. Highly recommend this place

    There wasn’t anything we didn’t like.

    It was very clean, well equipped and felt homely. Wendy was a great host very informative and attentive, the location was excellent for what we wanted to do and there was a supermarket just round the corner which was an added bonus. Stayed with friends for 3 nights for our birthdays will definitely stay again.

    Perfect position in a little complex through an archway which led onto one of the main roads in Edinburgh so it was nice and quiet but a 1 minute walk to shops, cafes and restaurants and so close to the touristy places. A parking space came with the apartment which really sold it to us initially. The apartment was beautifully decorated with comfy sofas and a really comfy bed. Everything we needed was supplied... even a nespresso machine with milk frother!! The owner was lovely and met us on arrival and made clear she was available at any point during the stay should we need her which we didn't. We will definitely book again when visiting Edinburgh if its available.

    I don't have anything negative to say.

    The apartment was lovely, cosy and clean and had all comforts we needed. It was located in lovely and peaceful neighborhood but still close to the city centre and Holywood park/ Arthur's seat. Also, grocery stores and restaurants were just around the corner. The host Wendy was really helpful and flexible.

    We are a family of 4 stayed in this apartment for 5 nights. Very clean apartment, snow-white sheets, the kitchen is equipped with absolutely everything you need. Location is very central, quiet and safe. All major attractions within walking distance. There are several supermarkets nearby. There are a coffee machine with capsules, a dishwasher and a washing machine. Everything worked great. Two pairs of keys was also a bonus for us. Our flight was canceled and we had to change our flight and arrived at the apartment much earlier. Wendy greeted us with a cold bottle of wine and allowed us to check in much earlier. Thank you Wendy, it was very nice after a sleepless night!
