I am a regular traveller to London and usually stay at only 2 lovely hotels.This trip for my 45th birthday weekend i decided to try out an apartment and stayed in this gorgeous ,cosy ,very clean apartment . It has really all the basics you would need.Comfortable bed and kitchen is well equipped. Great location with lots of lovely restaurants and shops.Train stop is also close by.
CONS: Its a little noisy. Friday evening around 23hrs, i continuously heard kids loudly playing next door.Its on a busy street, so expect to hear cars drive by if your a light sleeper.I tried to enjoy the lovely space and make this all not bother me that much, although i do love a silence when am in my room. Also the luck of wardrobe to hang my clothes was a little frustrating.But not such a big deal.
I wasn’t too happy with the unfriendliness i experienced from the guy who answered Amy’s phone when i rung with a question during my stay.I basically lit my scented candle as i usually do every where i stay and get no issues. The alarm went off and i got a little worried , rung Amy’s number and i regretted ! I should have just waited for the alarm to stop. I run a guesthouse and no way would i speak to my guests that way! Also, i have never ever been treated that way in the hotels i stay in. And these are top hotels. I get lots of respect and feel appreciated. People have no idea how negative treatment can affect someones moods. I truly felt more of a burden during my communications ,even after my departure when i had forgotten something and needed to send someone to pick it up. Took me a week to be able to send someone to pick it,which isn’t a problem ,but the lack of friendly communication from the host ,even when my friend was on the way to pick it on the agreed day ,only to be told by the host ( after i got in touch an hr before my friend arrived) that someones checked in the night before) I told her..Quote: “would have been nice of you to inform me ..”Oh dear, never did i expect Amy to respond so rudely.
Anyway, all in all, if your looking for a lovely, clean , cosy and convenient location apartment, then i would recommend this.And you probably really wont get the bad treatment i got.Sometimes people are just unlucky and get the bad treatment. I have no regrets because i get so many amazing treatments in places i stay.
