We had a family stay in London for a month. This apartment is great for a long stay. The area is safe, clean and seems relatively new. Very quiet at night also, even with an airport nearby. The apartment is very spacious and extremely comfortable. Kitchen is very practical and we did most of our own cooking. Check-in went very smoothly, thanks, Eleni! Hosts are easy to communicate with and were very accommodating with the one or two requests we had-thank you!
The closest bus stop is really about two minutes away and takes you to most nearby shops and the Jubilee line to go straight into London. You can also take the DLR, which is about a 5-8 minute walk from the apartment. There are a few small convenient shops just across the street and within the complex for daily needs, so no need to travel far for bread and milk. They also top-up your Oyster Card. All-in-all it is away from the busy city, but still close enough to go out for a day of sightseeing.
The ferry, which takes you across the Thames, is also an easy walk from the apartment.
The only thing, would be the mattresses, but they were comfortable enough for the month!
No issues with the central heating. Worked great! Thanks for a great stay!
