As we walked in to the flat we all collectively said ‘wow’ - you cannot help but be impressed by the enormous welcoming living room and the original feel of the place. It’s full of charm, interesting features, paintings, some old furniture. Natalies mother( who welcomed us and was lovely) said it had previously been the British Embassy. It certainly had a very grand feel.
The kitchen was well equipped- masses of glasses, plates cups etc. Good dishwasher. Generous fridge and freezer.
The beds were comfortable - except the pillows, and only per person was provided. Masses of clean towels in each bathroom which had a generous feel. There are two shower rooms , one with a bath, and two separate toilets- one with no window or fan. One of the shower rooms was unusable as the door was off but I hope that will soon be sorted.
The bedroom arrangement is not clear in the details. There is one beautiful enormous master bedroom with a child’s bed and a cot. Off the same corridor is a single room with beautiful ornate wooden bed. Sandwiched between these two rooms is the other small double room which has no access of its own. So if you need to get out of bed in the night you have to walk through another bedroom which is not ideal.
There is the possibility of using a sofa bed apparently but this would not be particularly private either as the main bathroom is off the lounge.
Had we known about the bedrooms I would not have booked this flat. In a way I’m glad we didn’t know as we made do with the sleeping arrangements and the rest of the flat was great
The arrival and departure communication was poor but I think that was because Natalie was away the weekend we went.
I would really recommend this Air B and B.
