We were at Murrayfield to watch a six nations rugby match with our two grandsons. We had a very nice apartment with two bedrooms three TVs and WiFi. We visited the pandas at the Zoo and then Murrayfield and were tired by 8pm and so dined in the apartment although there are excellent restaurants nearby. Edinburgh traffic is impossible so we were grateful for the garage parking in the Apartments and walked everywhere alongside 58,000 other rugby supporters!

The design and interior decor was very good. The sitting area was very comfortable and we were able to chat as a group while the evening meal was cooked. The bath towels in the bathroom were large/sheets and fluffy. There was not an extra blanket in the bedroom as I felt cold during the night and felt I could have used one. The dishwasher did not clean the dishes fully. Perhaps the filter needs to be checked/cleaned?

The facilities were new, clean and spacious, with a great view of the canal. As we were only there for a weekend, it was ideally located and within walking distance to the city centre, restaurants, cafes and shopping.

I liked everything about Fountain Court Apartments - eq2. The two- bedroom apartment was spacious with a lovely balcony. I loved the furniture and cannot think of any amenity I didn’t find; everything was there! Wonderful staff, the receptionist was smiley, kind and very helpful. Great value for money.

We really enjoyed the location and facilities at eq2; the apartment was large, spacious and excellently equipped. It was serviced daily which was an added benefit. EQ2 apartments are ideal for a city break, where you can relax at leisure in the lounge, listen to music, watch TV and chill with a glass of wine. Overall it was a perfect place to stay for our 4 day trip to the lovely city of Edinburgh.

The apartment we were eventually allocated has roomy had good facilities and very good outlook onto the canal. It is well positioned for access to central Edinburgh with Western Princess Street only 20 minutes and the Castle 30 minutes walk away. The staff were very helpful and accomodating when we complained about the first apartment The apartment we were initially allocated had very poor views overlooking an overgrown building site. This was not clear from any of the publicity material. When we complained we were moved within 24 hours. I felt the fact that some apartments had these views should be mentioned in the marketing material.

Well appointed, spacious apartment in a quiet location, but still very convenient for the Lothian Road and city area. Within 5 minutes walk of a wide variety of restaurants, bars, pubs, cinemas, theatres etc. Within easy walking distance of Princes Street and the castle. Also, being on the canal, provides easy access to green cycle/running routes. Eq2 also has an environmental policy and has applied for a green tourism award. As with many apartments, the heating was set way too high on arrival - at odds with the environmental policy. The hall radiator was not adjustable and remained uncomfortably high during our stay.

It is a must stay if you are going to Ediburgh and want comfort and good value for money. Make sure it is EQ2, it is the best and they have several in the area. For 8 quid you get access to a premier gym 10 minutes walk away. Many small cafe's in the area for breakfast if u do not want to cook it yourself. Great restaurants in the centre.

Excellent, well-equipped apartment, ideal for five adults. Begiunning to show signs of wear and tear - carpets a bit stained, door covering washing amchine hanging off. Minor things that we ignored.
