My parents and I had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb for 3 weeks. It is surprisingly quiet despite being just off the main road, extremely comfortable, safe and spacious. The flat was actually better than it seemed in the pictures!
The beds were very cosy and the modern thermostats in each room very easy to use. All appliances were super modern throughout and the place was immaculately clean on arrival. The master bedroom had ample built in wardrobe to stow away suitcases and we were kindly provided with extra pillows and pillowcases too.
The living area is lovely - south facing and gets lots of sunlight through the many windows. The balcony was an extra treat. The couch was super comfortable and the smart TV very easy to use and already connected to the internet. The second bedroom was a great size too. The secured underground parking was excellent and extremely convenient for us.
Amenities were excellent - fantastic washer dryer, dishwasher, hoover, mop, oven, fridge freezer, electric hobs. The kitchen bin was small and had to be emptied out almost daily, and it would have been nice to have small bins in the bedrooms and bathrooms.
Location wise this flat was perfect - a 3 min walk to a Sainsbury's and the rail station, and a bus stop on the doorstep. A very short walk to Kew bridge and onwards to Kew gardens.
Any queries or issues we had were quickly responded to by Zahra and/or the landlord and dealt with swiftly. Communication was excellent all round from pre check in through to check out and very helpful.
A few points worth noting:
- Would have been nice to be provided with kitchen basics like tea/coffee/sugar/small milk/hand soaps to avoid an immediate trip to the shops (but again Sainsbury's is very close by!)
- Handheld shower pressure not great but the temperature and rain shower were fantastic. We noticed the pressure/heat reduces slightly when both showers are in use at the same time.
- Perhaps slightly luxurious but would be lovely to have a couple chairs and a small table on the balcony to fully enjoy it!
- Apart from the Sainsbury's and costa within a few mins walking distance, the next closest high street/shops are about a 25 min walking distance from the flat
- Full length mirrors would also have been nice to have.
Overall though a fabulous stay, we were sad to leave and we cannot wait to be back!
