The check-in system is very good. The common areas were delightful. On the other hand, not having a lift (or else no directions) made getting our luggage up to our room a bit of a struggle. Nonetheles... See more

Great maintenance

Both my shutters and curtains didn’t work properly anymore, but Kyle came in and had it all fixed within 15 minutes. My room’s much more livable now :)

Nice apartment, a bit far from the old town

The room was spacious, and the sharing facilities such as kitchen and TV room are very nice.
What i did not like and i will be honest, is that there are many details in the room that need to be taken care of, the room needs some maintenance on different levels, and beside that, there was a cleanliness issue aswell.

I stayed here with my dance group

I stayed here with my dance group, I booked tree studios and everything was fine. The appartments are very clean and comfort. They are in the downtown, which we like a lot. Communtication with hosts was so easy. For me, 10/10.

Terrible communication to the point I though I rented a scam. Will never use this company again. Sitting in a foreign country with no place to stay was terrifying experience. Crying on 1st day of vacation is NOT A GOOD LOOK

Hello Papple,
We are truly sorry to hear about your experience and, above all, that you felt worried and uncertain about having a place to stay while abroad. We completely understand how stressful and frightening that situation must have felt, especially on the first day of your vacation.
Providing clear and timely communication is extremely important to us, and we sincerely regret that we did not meet your expectations in this regard. We certainly never want a guest to feel that they have been left without support or to question whether their booking is legitimate.
We are sorry that this experience affected the beginning of your vacation and that you have been left with such a negative impression.

Perfect location

We stayed only one night , the location in the Royal mile was perfect, close to train station, although we didn’t have contact with any staff person, it was easy to get in/out, it was clean and comfy.

We stayed at 30 Castle Street

We stayed at 30 Castle Street, Edinburgh. We experienced repeated loss of hot water, constant excessive ventilation noise and an access/security issue with the main entrance. Despite repeated contact, the problems were not properly resolved and we left two nights early.

JOIVY initially used the fact that the booking was “non-refundable” to reject a refund, despite us leaving because of documented problems with the property. They ultimately offered only 15%.

Very disappointing experience and customer handling.

Asking guests to clean the dishes after themselves and put the rubbish together is totally unacceptable

Hello Johnny,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the WiFi did not meet your expectations during your stay. We understand how frustrating an unreliable connection can be.
Regarding the dishes and rubbish, these are simple house rules intended to help keep the accommodation clean and pleasant for all guests, and they are clearly communicated before and during the stay. We’re sorry if these expectations felt unreasonable or inconvenient.

Key collection issues

We had to pick up the key at a Cost Cutter supermarket but we couldn't get the key so we had to wait for an agent to come from your offices. This took about an hour from the first time we phoned. The agent was very helpful once she arrived and tried her best to find the keys and show us how everything worked. A more convenient and friendlier place to pick up the key may be better, the lady at Cost Cutte was not friendly at all.

Too expensive for an old building apartment!

Good location , not best , with nice kitchen but building is very old and many things are not working in the apartment, too small double beds. No elevator , we got our luggage’s on third floor by stairs ! Two hard for two families with children..very expensive for what was offered!
