The apartment is at the top floor of a beautiful Georgian townhouse and is full of lots of character and lovely features.
There were lots of things about the apartment that we loved:
-Big, spacious and airy
-Quirky and charming features and decoration
-Well-stocked with toiletries, hairdryer, small amenities, umbrella etc
-Lovely supply of eggs / yoghurt / milk / juice / fruit etc
-Good location
-Great communication from the host
-Well-stocked kitchen
There were a few downsides, which we recognise aren’t easily fixable given the nature of the building:
-Very loud at night, especially over the weekend, due to the nearby pubs and single glazing
-Uncomfortable mattress and bed
-We found the towels were very scratchy and thin so not the most comfortable to use
-We found that the hot water started running out after 5 minutes of shower use every morning, despite trialling the boost function. We let Karin know and she did have a look at the system for us but couldn’t find a fault so not sure if this is just the nature of the boiler system.
-Given the above few issues I found that the price for the apartment was on the steeper side than I would expect
Overall we found our stay very pleasant, and the positives outweighed the negatives, but just worth bearing in mind if you’re a light sleeper or would struggle with any of the above.
