This was our second stay at this charming Notting Hill flat. We so enjoyed our first time back in 2014. This time, however, as much as we love the space, we were kept up every night by the loud tenants in the flat above. We understand these are old buildings, but there is no carpeting or padding on the floor above. The two young girls who live there were up at all hours banging around. What should be a quiet master retreat upstairs became a place where we got no sleep. This is a shame because we truly loved the flat and the location is ideal. We also appreciate the owners doing all they could to help our situation by speaking to them to keep things down. But until the insulation is fixed, it will be a noisy stay. My kids on the lower floors were unaffected. There is also scaffolding/work going on at the house next door, and though it was mostly quiet, workers began their day very early. So if you want to sleep in, as we did from lack of sleep, you will hear lots of hammering through the walls.
