Pros
- High ceiling and tasteful decorations make this place feel much more upscale.
- It is very well equipped with a dishwasher, and a washer-dryer.
- Anna provided many amenities for our baby, and the apartment was even baby-proofed, which was great!
- Easy access to many buses that take you to main attractions in London without needing to take the tube.
- Anna was always responsive, and provided support as needed.
Cons
- Both rooms have high windows covering the whole side facing west, meaning that during afternoon you get direct sunlight for extended period of time. Despite black curtains, the interior gets hotter than outside, which is good news for most of the year, except for the hot days in summer. We were in London during the record-breaking heat wave, and we could certainly not stay inside during the afternoons. Good news is that during the evenings, the same windows will help to ventilate the place if there is some wind outside, so we didn’t have problem sleeping during the night.
- The neighborhood can be occasionally a bit loud during the night, but honestly that can be said about most neighborhoods in London, perhaps.
- You are not really close to the tube, if that’s what you are looking for. For us, taking buses was perfectly fine though.
