Eq2, Edinburgh - Reviews & Ratings"Overall the stay was great - the small minor issues were really nothing serious and with a little more attention to detail on things, the stay would have been perfect" (107269963)
The apartments were exceptionally high spec, with big plasma TVs, double headed showers, leather sofas etc. There was also a large amount of room for us as a couple with two rooms and two bathrooms. The location was also a massive plus as it was onmly 5-8 minutes walk from town, where you had access to everything, but was in an area where it wasnt noisy.
There were a couple of things missing (nothing serious, just kitchen knives) the frdige door was damaged and the TV aerial broke so there was no TV. But we hadnt gone to watch TV so it wasnt really a problem!

Eq2, Edinburgh - Reviews & Ratings"Good value compared to comparable properties elsewhere in Edinburgh. Note, although within walking distance of the city center, it is not centrally located." (107206909)
Spacious, modern and well appointed, loved the Molton Brown toilettries! Great to be able to have secure parking at reasonable cost.
The free wi-fi is not accessible if you have a Mac, which was a bit of a pain.

Louise ( Solo business traveller)
from Cambridge , GB on March 1, 2008
Eq2, Edinburgh - Reviews & Ratings"The price was comparable to a hotel room but you get much more space and it feels more homely. As a solo business traveller it was lovely to have a kitchen to relax and prepare dinner after a day's work instead of going to a restaurant alone, and to be able to make breakfast as soon as you get up. The lounge was very spacious. Bedroom had loads of wardrobe space plus hall cupboards. Stereo system allows music to play in bedroom and bathroom! Totally luxurious, I wish this was my flat. Allow about 40 min walk to city centre/Royal Mile." (97237348)
Spacious, warm, comfortable, spotlessly clean and tasteful modern decor. Molton Brown toiletries in shower.
Nothing really. Be aware that although 'breakfast is included' this consists of bread, yoghurt and one mini cereal carton - you'll probably need to top up. Not really a problem (works out much cheaper than typical hotel breakfast) but would have been a hassle if I had arrived late evening.

The spaciousness and the decor.
The heating was not on when we arrived, and there weren't really any instructions regarding putting this on (all heating systems are different in there settings). The apartment was spotless, but with cream coloured carpets, there were some stains showing that hadn't been eliminated.

The standard of fixtures and fittings were excellent. The location of the apartment was also excellent.
Neither Sky on the TV or the wi-fi link worked!!! Both were reported

Would choose an apartment like this over a pokey hotel room everytime. Very comfortable & all mod-cons available. Only 2 very minor complaints, other than that 10/10." (97697808)
Perfect, upgraded to 2 bedroom apartment overlooking the canal. Very clean, everything provided.
water pressure in shower a bit on the weak side, & soundproofing not great - could hear neighbours TV etc..
