Great location but old and dated

The house is really in need of a facelift, there are many areas that need to be repaired and cleaned, the rooms are suitable but with it being a shared house not all guests want to share or respect the space of others. The kitchen is well sized, it’s a decent sized kitchen but needed more equipment and everything is well worn and needing repairs. No tea towel, limited cooking equipment, but plenty of tea and coffee provided. The bathroom leaves a lot to be desired, but it functions. The house itself doesn’t seem very secure as most occupants didn’t read their guidebook and consequently the front door was left open a lot of the time. It’s a budget accommodation, great for a night or two. The management were exceptionally fast to answer any issues we had, they were quick to fix things and give us instructions on how things work. The guidebook was a great start but needed extra information like the rules of the share house.

Worst VRBO Experience Ever: Terribly misleading representation of property

The property is listed as having several amenities, and that some are shared. What they fail to mention is that people from 4 units share everything but the bedrooms. That means, as in our case, no amenities were available, they were taken by the other 6-8 people in the house. We had no access to the living room and the kitchen was a mess; it had stacks of plates in the sink and there was food in the microwave. With the kitchen occupied, we couldn't use the laundry. In addition, there were clothes and towels in the bathrooms. It was a fraternity house meets hostel environment. Absolutely the worst experience I've ever had with a VRBO, and our family has used VRBO on a number of occasions. If ever a goodwill refund was in order for the nights we didn't stay, this is the case. We only stayed on the property one night, and only because we had to, there was a severe train delay coming into Edinburgh and we arrived very late. It truly was a gross experience.
