Pros:
- Proximity to cool places to go is great, it is right next to a train station and a short walk from many of the sights of London.
- The apartment itself is nice and is accurately represented by the pictures.
- Owner is responsive to issues.
- Owner gives clear instructions on check-in, and well in advance.
Cons:
- The apartment is located in a complex that is a kind of rundown
- Not much is provided by the owner, aside from the apartment and linens. For example, toilet paper. I would expect that, at the very least, toilet paper would be stocked and abundant. There was less than one roll in the apartment, and on the check-in sheet it explained that if you run out, go buy some more. For the amount you're paying for the place, there should AT LEAST be toilet paper so you're not in the middle of doing your business and the toilet paper runs out to find there is no more.
- Two of the bedrooms have windows facing the walkway, and those windows have very thin curtains. Having children in the apartment, and the fact that the complex is pretty beat up, I felt very uncomfortable with this at night.
