The Holyrood apartment was excellent! It actually looked like the photos on the website which was a nice surprise! It was clean, spacious, well laid out and had all the amenities we needed. It was in a fantastic location in a safe quiet neighbourhood. It was close enough to the action without being in the middle of it.

Lovely apartment in a great location. The apartment was on the third floor and there were no lights on the stairs beyond the ground floor. This was not ideal and could be dangerous.

We just loved our time in your apartment. It was nice and cozy for our arrival and even a small Christmas tree up which was nice for our 3 year old niece who was with us. The place was spotless and we had a nice welcome from Tony. This was our second stay this year but this time after unpacking we were able to sit down and have a cup of tea and enjoy a piece of your lovely shortbread, a lovely touch. The apartment is just perfect for us as our family are within walking distance and of course so is Ocean Terminal for great retail therapy. Not far for the bus to take you to centre of Edinburgh should you wish.Thank you for another wonderful stay and we will be back again...and again...and again.

Excellent service all the way through the process from booking, checking us in to refunding our deposit. We really felt confident that they were going to deliver and boy, did they do that.
Product
The location of the apartment was ideal and the standard of accommodation even better than we expected. They had some staple items in the cupboard, which was handy. We replaced with some extra. We didn’t cook in the flat but used the dishwasher and there was plenty crockery for the 6 of us. Everything was good quality. The Wi-fi wasn’t working well at first but was fine once rebooted. Sorry I didn’t take photos. We were too busy having fun.

Reserve apartments needs to hire customer service reps with people skills and human emotions and be upfront about all policies regardless of which booking site is used so there aren't surprises for the customer.
Product
The apartment was ok. The location was great. The layout was terrible and it was missing quite a few typical kitchen implements, which made cooking in a challenge. Also, you need to use both hands to exit the apartment as both the knob and deadbolt must be turned simultaneously, which is a real challenge if you are carrying anything at all outside or if you have a disability or injury. I would not stay here again but that's largely due to the terrible service provided by Reserve Apartments in advance of my stay and less to do with the apartment itself.
Our response
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. At Reserve we do pride ourselves on providing good customer service and I am sorry to hear that on this occasion you were unhappy with the service provided. I have looked into the situation surrounding this booking and can see that a member of our team dealt with your enquiries at the time. The website used to make your booking is a marketing channel used by our company to advertise our holiday lets.
Thank you for bringing areas for improvement to our attention - I have passed them onto the Property Manager who will take steps to make the improvements at the apartment

Apartment was dirty, hair left over in bathroom from previous guests. Crumbs on sofa, bedside tables dusty. The lady who showed us around didn’t give us any control over heating (she controlled it from home), so we had to make do with blankets on the nights that it was cold!

Our response
Thank you so much for leaving feedback. We are disappointed that the property didn't meet your expectations. However, negative feedback is always useful to us in order to improve our service. We have contacted the Property Manager who has confirmed that she came in during your stay to do a full clean of a property. In addition, she has pointed out to us that there are details of how the heating works in the flat handbook. We have brought all these to the attention of the Property Manager who will take the necessary steps to improve the service in future. Despite these issues we hope you enjoyed your time in Edinburgh.

The location was excellent but parking and expense of parking down the road is ridiculous.
Suggest hooks or towel rails in the bathroom and a bin. Otherwise was a pleasant stay.

They were courteous and clear in their booking service, which resolved the cancellation problem I faced when the initial firm went into liquidation.

The house was perfect for location, and for our size of party.
However, we felt some areas of the house needed a more thorough cleaning - sticky kitchen doors, the dining table, dirty marks on the sofas and lots of cobwebs at ceiling height.

Reserve Apartments kept us informed at each stage of the booking, emailing what to do next and when to contact Tony the meet and greet guy who was very nice and helpful.
one or two minor points we would like to make that you may find useful to know:
•the wooden table by the white sofa had a broken leg
•There were a couple of marks on the carpet in the lounge between the brown and white sofas and a mark on the throw.
•the red rug had curled up edges making a trip hazard.
•The seal at the bottom of the shower screen over the bath is loose and may need replacing.
•The curtain in the middle bedroom was hanging off at the end. The bed and door to this room were rather squeaky!
•The blind in the master bedroom would not come down
Things worth considering:
•There were only four bar stools around the breakfast bar.
•Some trays may be useful.
•bin liners
we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Flat 3 - it was very clean, cosy and comfy and we would certainly go there again.Product
Flat 3 was a good place to stay and was within walking distance of Dean Village, Stockbridge and Princes Street
would recommend this flat. On the ground floor and a lift to underground parking

We've stayed in this apartment before, just under 2 years ago at New Year, and it was truly excellent, very highly presented and maintained. However, it seems that management may have changed in the meantime.
This time we felt things had slipped in terms of quality: there were quite a few dead light bulbs especially in the main bedroom, the battery in the bathroom scales was dead, an access hatch in bathroom ceiling had been left open, a drawer handle was falling off, a "towel" left on the bed turned out to be a bath mat and so on. Minor things, each of them individually, but they build up to a pattern suggestive of a lack of care and attention to detail.
We also noticed things missing, like the big glass table in living room, a missing picture, the lack of any liquid hand soap in the bathroom (previously provided) - and where has the kitchen bin gone? It was really annoying having nowhere to put rubbish.
At check-in we were provided with toilet rolls and dishwasher tablets, which gave us the impression that these things were now being rationed a bit. Also, when we last stayed, there was a fresh pint of milk in the fridge ready for us to use. Not this time.
The biggest concern was that the gas fire in the living room was not working properly (previously a little tricksy to operate, now it just didn't work). It was kind of glossed over quickly at check-in, but it's not simply an issue of heating (the place is plenty warm enough) - there is a far more serious question about safety if a gas fire is not functioning properly. Annual servicing of gas appliances in rented property is mandatory, yet there's no certificate available in the apartment to check this.
For sure, the apartment still looks the part on the surface. It's when you look closely that you can see a distinct difference in how it's being maintained now compared to when we first stayed there. All in all, we had the feeling that things are being skimped on, corners are being cut and the apartment's no longer quite as luxurious a stay as it had been previously - which is what you're paying for, after all. We'll look for somewhere else next time.Product
A lovely apartment in a great location BUT it looks as though maintenance and quality standards are slipping. See my comments on customer experience for details. They are mostly minor things but they add up to an overall impression of lack of care - except about the £££.
Our response
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We are sorry to hear of the issues you found during your stay. We have passed all of your comments onto the Property Manager who, where necessary, will take the steps to make the improvements at the property. We can assure you that the gas fire has been serviced in accordance with regulations. However it is not compulsory to display the certificate in the property, as stated on the Gas Safe Register website: If the rental period is less than 28 days at a time you may display a copy of the record in a prominent position within the dwelling. Despite these issues we do hope you enjoyed your visit to Edinburgh.

Lovely apartment but more for young professionals without children. Next time I would look for a house that meets our needs. One of the neighbours complained, asking to keep the noise down as a picture fell off the wall. It’s very difficult keeping three young children quiet when there is flooring on the living room area.

Same as above
Our response
Thank you so much for leaving feedback. We understand you have discussed the incident with the property owner. This beautiful apartment is ideal for any party, including families. It is however the fabric of new build properties, especially with oak and laminate floors, that noise can be a problem to other residents but we trust that it did not spoil your stay and that you enjoyed your time in Edinburgh. On your next visit to Edinburgh please be sure to get in touch with Reserve and we'll look at the availability of other types of properties.
