We had a great stay for two nights at Lucka’s place on Denbigh street in London! We used to live in Pimlico and I wanted my 6 and 10 year olds to see where we used to live as we always loved Pimlico’s proximity to London’s monuments and low key neighborhood feel.
The flat has a great location and stylish, space, efficient presentation. It has two really cool mezzanine lofts for sleeping. I felt a bit nervous having my small kids sleep up there as they toss a lot so instead they used it as a hang out area and slept on the main level where two sofa beds can be found. The flat is reasonably quiet at night. Considering it is in a major city, we slept quite well. The shower has great pressure and the shower and toilet are located in between the master bedroom and living room, making it easy for everyone to access. There are three supermarkets within 5 minutes and lots of restaurants including UNo right downstairs, where we had a great English breakfast. The flat is 5 minutes away from Victoria station and the Gatwick express and so is very convenient if traveling in and out of Gatwick airport. There are several tube stations nearby as well as buses. We took the number 24 bus almost right outside our door to Westminster Abbey and Trafalgar Square.
We were very pleased to see that Lucka provided toilet paper, dish soap, sponges, hand soap and shampoo and conditioner. She was a very communicative and responsive host and the flat was spotless. There was also a great WiFi connection and large flat screen television. A second fan for the living room would have been great but is probably not needed most of the year. Our stay happened to be during a major heat wave and drought. The kids came away loving London and we would all definitely be really happy to return to the flat!
