We loved Isabella’s elegant, bright and spacious apartment in an atmospheric historical building. It was perfectly clean and we found everything we needed in it. The high ceilings, ancient floorings and simple decor gave it a particularily peaceful, zen-like atmosphere despite its location in a bustling area. The Victoria station is right down the building and as is a taxi head station so moving around the city was very simple. The bakery and fab juice place downstairs made our breakfasts very easy to prepare!
The apartment, on the first floor, is not protected from street noise. Neither our two children nor I were incommodated by the noise but my husband found it sometimes difficult to bear during the night. I personally enjoyed feeling the life of this vibrant city around us while I laid in bed at night and it never interrupted my sleep.
We recommend this home and wish there were more individual places such as this one around the city, when most rentals are look-alike, soulless apartments ran by firms....
