If you’re coming to Edinburgh for a few days, Destiny Charlotte Sq. is a great option. However, here are the pros and cons I gave my stay a pleasant and not excellent:
Pros:
- Location is excellent, you’ll be surrounded by beautiful views of the Gardens and surrounded by great food.
-Security, we felt safe as you need an access code to enter the building/apartments.
-The space is very efficient and well decorated. It has a full kitchen and living room.
-Customer service response via email is timely and clear.
Now some of our cons:
- We got the castle view apartment and a day before we arrived we were noticed that our window was broken due to “high winds.” We stayed anyways because it was too late to find another place, but we were not offered any refunds or anything. After all, we chose the location for thw specific view, and had half of it boarded up.
- While the bed is a good size, it could be a wee bit more comfortable.
- We were awakened early morning by loud hammering two out of the three nights we stayed.
Overall, I believe that the pros outweigh the cons, and if you’re looking for a centric and efficient stay in Edinburgh, this is the right place.
