If you are looking for a great flat to rent for your trip to London, this is it. While it is not in the city proper, the bus stop is right there! Public transportation is so easy in London. Even on holidays, when there are no busses, there is always Uber which was super responsive and easy to use. Tesco, one of the major shopping markets in London, is just two very short blocks away. Great store!
The flat is perfect. We are a family of four, with two teenage kids, one boy and one girl. With the sofa bed in the front and the extra bedroom, everyone had their own space.
The flat was extremely clean when we came and it was easy to keep it so since they provide plenty of cleaning materials. There are more than enough towels in the bathrooms and kitchen. Loved the bath sheets! Huge and fluffy towels in the bathrooms!!!!
The kitchen is very well stocked, including a ton of spices and cooking items. It made having breakfast in the flat before we started our day very easy. And lots of space for bringing home left overs from dinner to eat later at night. There is a dishwasher which was very easy to use and a washing machine/dryer combo. Make sure to follow Martin’s instructions on using the washing machine/dryer because it is a all in one machine and smaller than machines in the states. But it’s so awesome to have if you are in London for a few days and don’t want to pack for a week!
Everything worked perfect and when we had a question, we called the management company number they left us and they responded immediately.
By the way: If you’re looking for a late night snack, we recommend the Italian restaurant right across the street. Authentic, small place, but so delicious! Then again, there are so many great places to eat all over London. We found ourselves just dropping into a restaurant at random and never went wrong. Be adventurous!
We highly recommend this flat and would definitely come back again. Such great host management and great owner. Don’t hesitate, book it! Thank you for making our first trip to London perfect!
