Really great location and nice room. :)
We really enjoyed our stay and we loved that we were very close to Paddington and Notting Hill! We found “Notting Hill Gate” and “Royal Oak” to be the best tube stations near by. There also was a Waitrose supermarket very close by, which was very convenient.
We really appreciated the great communication before and during our stay with the host.
The room itself was quite nice. It had everything that you could need (bed, desk, chair, tv, dresser, wardrobe and even a hairdryer, which we greatly appreciated!!)
The TV was able to connect to Netflix, which was great, but it unfortunately didn’t get a signal to local tv channels.
You have access to a shared kitchen, and two bathrooms. Only one shower though… which can definitely get a little crowded, so you should definitely plan accordingly.. especially since check out time is 10am.
The nights can sometimes be a little loud, as the flat is rather close to the train tracks and the street. The walls are kinda thin as well, so you might wanna pack some earplugs.
Unfortunately, the common room has been rented out during our stay, so there really wasn’t a lot of room to socialize.
But as we were out most of the day anyway, that didn’t bother us too much.
We did make friends with a really nice American girl, so we’re very grateful to have been staying there at that exact time. :) You never know what kinda people you meet.
The cameras in the hallway and in the kitchen did kinda make us feel a little uncomfortable though.
All in all, it was a really nice stay! Next time we’d probably book the room closest to the bathroom upstairs though, as we found that that one had a much better layout of the furniture/tv than our room.
