Overall, the location is very convenient and the soundproofing is quite good, but the attitude of some front desk staff could be improved. There are quite a few supermarkets around the apartment, for example, Lidl is less than a 15-minute walk away.

LIU**

I really like IQ Fountainbridge, the front desk is great, and the facilities are nice. I recommend the agent I work with, Ms. Liu Ye ~ If you need anything, just contact her! She replies super fast!

As a first-time international student coming to Edinburgh, I had absolutely no idea where to begin when it came to finding a place to stay. I’d never been to the UK before, didn’t know the city, and quickly realized that most rental listings required a UK guarantor—which was a huge challenge since I didn’t know anyone here. That’s when I found Uhomes, and I’m so glad I did. My agent, Natt, was incredibly helpful from the very beginning. She took the time to understand my situation and helped me find a room close to my university. Not only that, she even contacted the property directly to ask if they would accept an international guarantor on my behalf. Her kindness, patience, and lightning-fast responses made the whole process smooth and stress-free. The cherry on top? She managed to secure some cashback for me too, which was a wonderful surprise! What really impressed me was how much support I received even before arriving in the UK. Natt arranged an online meeting for new students preparing to depart, which covered super useful topics like what to pack, what documents to bring, and even cultural do’s and don’ts. As someone who had never been to the UK before, this session was incredibly reassuring and helped me feel more prepared. When I finally arrived in Edinburgh, moving into the property was easy and straightforward. The room was just as cute and cozy as it looked on the website—no surprises, just excitement. Everything was clean, well-prepared, and ready for me to settle in. I truly recommend Uhomes—and especially Natt—to anyone looking for accommodation in Edinburgh. They turned what felt like an overwhelming experience into something easy and welcoming. Thank you so much!

The 24-hour security is attentive, and the management is on point, making for an excellent living experience. Highly recommended!
