About the apartment
You will arrive in Edinburgh and locate our apartment from the detailed arrival instructions we have sent to you and you will be met at our apartment by a member of staff. If you have arrived by car, there are 2 car parks very close by but please note you will need to consult www.ncp.co.uk to get an idea of prices (Castle Terrace car park is the closest). This apartment is on the ground floor of a traditional Edinburgh tenement so ideal for anyone unable to climb stairs. (ie the stair is shared with other apartments - it is not all holiday apartments and there is a mixture of long term residents as well as holiday apartments). As you enter the apartment you will find the hallway opening into the lounge/dining area where you will find a welcome basket with a selection of Scottish biscuits and toiletries. There is also tea, coffee and sugar as well as a pint of milk in the fridge for you so you once our member of staff has showed you around the apartment you can just put your feet up and relax before deciding what to do during your stay.
The sofa converts into a double bed so this apartment can sleep 4 if required. There is a dining table that can also seat 4 so you can easily cook and stay in if you prefer. The kitchen which is just off the lounge is small but well equipped with oven, hob, fridge, washing machine and microwave and lots of cutlery, crockery etc. If there is anything not included in the standard inventory that you think you will need for your stay we are open to suggestions for additional items (although please allow time for these to be delivered to the apartment).
The double bedroom also looks over the rear gardens so has a quiet outlook and has plenty of storage space for clothes. A good nights rest is assured with our orthopaedic mattresses and cool Egyptian cotton bedding.
Check in
As a rough guide check in is 4pm but if you are arriving between 11am and 4pm we can take your bags in the apartment, give you a set of keys and let you explore Edinburgh whilst the apartment is cleaned. That will save you having to haul bags around until you can check in. If you are arriving after 9pm there is a £30 charge to cover the costs of us sending out our move in company after hours. We can monitor flights on the BAA website so you don’t need to worry if your flight is delayed if you have told us your flight number. You will be given full contact details including a mobile number for the member of staff who will be meeting you at the apartment. We will also request a mobile number from you that you will have with you when you travel so we can keep in touch.
Payments
You will initially pay 25% deposit when you book to reserve the apartment. We will then request the balance around 6 weeks before arrival which can be paid by credit card or Paypal. For bookings made less than 6 weeks in advance the full amount will be due and in really late bookings from a couple of days before arrival we can either take credit card payments or cash on arrival. In all cases a £300 security deposit will be held to cover any damages or loss of keys etc which is usually by credit card or cheque. This will be returned in full if the apartment is returned to us in a tidy state with all keys (in 5 years of welcoming guests at this apartment we have yet to make a security deduction).
Stag nights/hen nights
Please note we do not accept hen or stag parties at this property.
Smoking
Please also note this is a no smoking apartment and a deduction will be made from the deposit if we need to have curtains or furnishings dry cleaned to eliminate tobacco odours.
Pets
For the comfort of all guests we do not accept pets at this property.
