I enjoyed a very comfortable three-night stay at Stevyn's flat in Highgate. It is exactly as depicted in the photos and the listing. It would be very suitable for a single traveller or couple, but might start to feel a little small for a larger party.

Communication with Stevyn was quick and he always answered my questions straight away. He obviously loves the flat and was very keen to show me around when I arrived and make sure I knew how everything worked, which was very appreciated. He even offered to pick me up from the tube station, but I was running late so we just met at the flat.

There are very convenient transport links close to the flat, as well as the Crouch End shops which are a (downhill) walk about 10 minutes away. Stevyn gave me a little intel on the neighbourhood and made some recommendations about where to go and what to see that was close by.

The flat is clean and quiet - being on the 9th floor there wasn't much noise either from the street or the neighbours in the building. The lift was quick and very welcome after a day of walking around London. The view is very nice, and there are windows on two sides of the flat allowing for a lot of natural light. And as the flat is at the top of the hill, there is a nice breeze that will flow through when the windows were open.

The space is open and doesn't feel cramped at all.

The water was always hot in the shower and in the kitchen. And I found the bed to be quite comfortable, despite what some of the other reviewers have said.

I would definitely recommend Stevyn's flat. It was my first Airbnb experience and Stevyn made it a great one.
