What a great find.
First of all, the communication from Guy was the best I’ve experienced on Airbnb. He’s so personable and responsive, even answering my booking query on Christmas Eve!
No problems finding the flat or using the electronic building entry. The flat is on the 5th floor and there is a lift.
It was hot when we stayed but there are fans in each room and it was possible to have the windows open at night without too much noise disturbance.
The location of this property is truly sublime. You’re absolutely in the thick of it, a short stroll to Covent Garden, Leicester Square, Trafalgar Square etc.
We really enjoyed Mr Fogg’s pub just down the road (excellent salted caramel espresso martinis). Had an amazing lunch at Dishoom 2 minutes walk away and fabulous dinner at the Hawksmoor, Seven Dials. We also spent a couple of enjoyable hours people watching at the Hippodrome Casino which has a brilliant show tunes sing-along in the lower ground floor bar on a Thurs, Fri and Sat night til 2am.
The photos of the flat are a fair representation. The size and layout worked really well for us travelling with our 2 adult children. We crammed a lot into a 3 day trip but it was nice to have one evening relaxing at the flat with a bottle of wine and just watch a film on Netflix.
The bedding and towels are good. There’s plenty of shampoo, shower gel, soap, dishwasher tablets, loo roll etc.
Essentially this flat has spoiled us for staying anywhere else when we visit London!
