We stayed four days here. The good: the staff is very friendly, it's very convenient to the train station, the big tour bus stop, the airport bus stop, and both Old Town and New Town. The bad, there is only one working lift and it's very slow. The bed was lumpy, the furniture was worn, the shower door does not seal properly (water runs all over the floor.

Lovely friendly staff. Nice spacious room but it was in need of some tlc. Some horrible stains on the carpet & curtains and a very peeling faux leather chair. Quite dusty in the higher areas. Only 1 lift working for 10 floors so make sure you're not in a rush! Fantastic location and not too noisy considering how central you are. The bar was lovely and all the staff we came across were very helpful and friendly.

This hotel is easy to get to via the airport bus. We took the bus and a quick walk. (Great for value seekers). The hotel is super conveniently located. It was very easy to get around the city. It’s super close for walking and has many bus terminals nearby if needed. The staff here were so friendly and helpful. They allowed us to check our bags in early (we had a morning flight - so dropped them and headed out to the museum). We also were able to check in a bit early and get a solid nap before heading back out for the day. The hotel itself is beautiful and clean and quiet. There’s a pool (open 7:00-22:00) which is warm and clean and happened to conveniently be on our floor. The bed was comfortable- especially the pillows. There’s a safe and a mini fridge and a kettle. And I loved the bathroom - huge shower and a very helpful large shelf for all your bathroom supplies to sit. 10/10, would absolutely stay here again without hesitation.

We loved the location of Apex Waterloo. It was in the heart of the city, a block from the train station. Our room was a nice size and we liked having a couch to relax on in the room. The only issues we had were a very slow sink drain, a toilet that didn't flush very well, and a shower that flooded a small section of the bathroom. The room could have used some TLC, especially the carpeting which was in dire need of cleaning. We enjoyed the bar area and the service there was great. The bed was very comfortable and the linens were nice. A strong suggestion would be to get the Apex flag in front of the building replaced. It does not give a good first impression. All in all, we had a nice, comfortable stay at Apex Waterloo. Thanks!

Room was lovely. The giant tub was an added bonus after long days of walking around the city. The staff were very nice and welcoming. One elevator is still down and when we arrived, our room was ready but we were still unable to check in because at the time both elevators were down. But we dropped our bags and went and grabbed lunch. It’s a good location to Calton hill and the tram and bus stops. Walking distance to all the tourist spots like Royal mile and such. Overall I def would recommend it. The elevator situation was the only downside but not enough to hinder the trip in any way
