Disliked: Amenities

Property is good, location is good. However, the checkin wasn’t pleasant. At last minute they ask for deposit (without it, they refuse to grand me the access). Even if this is a standard practice, why didn’t they mention this in the instruction email sent to me a day before? Instead, they have to do this to me at the last hour. They sent me a link to collect that money, my email server rejected the request. It looks too suspicious. I booked through Expedia, this was not mentioned when I book my stay nor in the checkin instruction a day before. One of sudden, they decide they want to charge me a deposit? I don’t feel very comfortable.

The location is amazing! Within walking distance of the train station and most of the local attractions. Laundry on site was really convenient. Room was well equipped. The only downside was that the bed was a bit uncomfortable, and the tap in the kitchen would leak randomly and wake us up.

Destiny Scotland was fine, but the stairs. It was brutal carrying my luggage up four flights. There wasn't even a landing to unpack and carry half at a time. The luggage storage door was broken when I checked on it so I don't recommend that. The USB power is odd. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't even when the power switch is turned on. The team is responsive on the phone during work hours, but in the future, I'd prefer a stay with a lift and a front desk. Outside of that, the location was central to everything.

Excellent location. Lots of stairs and no lift. Luggage storage very handy. Excellent communication with destiny Scotland. Very clean apart from a few small bits, bathroom door should be wiped down as so close to sink etc. Overall an enjoyable stay and would go back

Fantastic location!

Perfect location right in the middle of all the attractions, restaurants and stores. Apartment was well equipped for making our own meals if we desired. We were on the 5th floor (top) so the stairs were a bit of a challenge with lugging the suitcases up and down

Great spot to the royal mile and new town. It’s a small door to building and easy to miss so just pay attention when looking for the building. Unit Space is very comfortable and has everything you need. As advertised, no lift is on site so if mobility is an issue, be aware. Would stay here again, no question.

The apartment was quite small, but it was very clean and had everything we needed for our 4-night stay. The location was great! We were near the train station and airport buses. We also enjoyed being very close to a good restaurant. Communication with Destiny made our check-in very easy. We enjoyed our stay.

Location was well situated for main city areas and all very walkable. The apartment was well equipped, clean and spacious. We initially had an issue with the TV but this was very quickly rectified after notifying Destiny Scotland by email. The only downside for us was that the apartment was on the 5th floor and there is no lift, but this may have been on oversight on our behalf at the time of booking. Would happily stay and recommend Destiny Scotland again but would need to ensure a more accessible appartment.

Lovely central apartment if you don't mind stairs

Apartment was lovely, and an excellent location. Unfortunately, having to climb 10 flights of stairs to get to it (5th floor, and no lift) would put us off booking it again.
