Fully equipped with refrigerator, oven, and microwave. The internet speed is very fast. The bus stop is very close, allowing direct access by bus to school and shopping districts such as Prince Street. The sound insulation is average, and fire alarms often go off.

I lived in New Park for a year, and the overall experience was great. The apartment environment is clean and tidy, the room facilities are relatively new, and the public areas are also well maintained. The front desk staff and maintenance personnel are friendly, and any issues can generally be resolved in a timely manner. The location of the apartment is very convenient, with supermarkets and bus stops nearby, making it easy to get to the University of Edinburgh and the city center. The overall living experience is comfortable and safe, making it very suitable for international students. I recommend it to students who are preparing to study in Edinburgh.

It's pretty good. The staff at the front desk and the apartment are friendly. It's not far from the supermarket and other places. It takes about 30 minutes to walk to Prince Street in Morey and the city center, and there are buses right outside.

Generally, the sound insulation is poor. The kitchen fire alarm is very sensitive. The location is a bit far from Morey College, requiring a half-hour walk. However, there are many supermarkets around, making daily shopping convenient. It can be a bit cold at night in winter.

I am very satisfied with my stay experience at Downing New Park! The apartment is located on Bothwell Street, with convenient transportation and complete living facilities around, making it very suitable for studying abroad. I stayed in a Classic Ensuite room type, which was clean and tidy, had good lighting, and decent privacy. The shared kitchen and living area are spacious, and I get along well with my roommates. From September 5, 2026, to August 28, 2028, the entire residence process was very smooth, and the apartment management team responded promptly, resolving any minor issues quickly. Overall, it was a very pleasant renting experience! If I had to mention a possible area for improvement, it would be to hope for a slightly higher frequency of cleaning in the common areas, but overall, it has been great! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very satisfied and would recommend it to other students!

When looking for accommodation for studying abroad, I hope to find a cheap place that is relatively close to the college, and it's best if there's convenient shopping nearby, which is exactly what New Park offers! It's just a 10-minute walk to Lidl, Sainsbury's, and it couldn't be better! The room facilities are well-maintained, clean and tidy upon move-in, and the view from the window is the mountains of Holyrood Park!

The entire apartment's facilities are very new
I absolutely love it!!
What I like the most is our front desk, which is friendly and kind, and there is always someone to find, very reassuring. Unlike other apartment front desks where you can't find anyone in emergency situations at night, our front desk is super dedicated!
