Rafael's communication was fantastic. From the minute we booked and throughout the stay he was extremely welcoming, prompt and responsive. There were a couple of issues but they were handled efficiently and with clear and timely communication.
The apartment was very clean and the duplex layout with a full kitchen was really perfect for our family of four. Washing machine and drying rack made it easy to pack less and make it through our 8 day stay
It's in an incredibly convenient location with a full grocery store around the corner and easy access to bus, underground and overground. Steps to the canal and short walk to the market put you in Camden but not so close that you are aware of or bothered by the club scene.
Only drawback is that the street noise is really noticeable with many more sirens than we anticipated. It's mostly a problem in the front bedroom especially if the windows are open. It was in the 90's F a couple days when we were there so open windows was a necessity. (Side note that we found it mysterious that there appear to be no bugs in London. No one seems to have any screens, yet no bugs despite open windows all night.) When it was cool enough to have windows closed it wasn't as much of a problem, but we were still pretty aware of it. So whoever is sleeping in the front should plan on ear plugs. The back bedroom faces the garden and is quiet.
Definitely would recommend this apartment as an affordable, convenient option, with a welcoming and responsive host.
