Guest reviews for York Place Apartments by Destination Edinburgh
"Our stay felt like a real home‑from‑home, which made my mum’s birthday extra special. She absolutely loved the apartment and still talks about it now. Everything was comfortable, welcoming, and so easy to settle into — I’d happily live in a place like this! Everything exceeded our expectations."
"The only issue was a noticeable draught under the apartment entrance door, which made the hallway the coldest part of the apartment. It seems like an easy fix — something like a draft excluders for the front door and bedrooms would make a big difference."
