We loved our stay at Alessandro's little apartment. He wasn't able to meet us when we arrived but we had no problem following his directions to his place and getting into the apartment. It was as small as I figured it would be. The very tiny bathroom sink was a surprise however, but it worked, you could not have fit a regular size in there.
As mentioned before the bus stop was very, very close and the Bus # 24 would take you into Parliament Square, and many other stops. It was very convenient. We were a short bus ride away from Victoria Station too and we walked to Victoria Bus station(only 10 min. walk) for a Bus Tour.
The Grocery store was on the bus route and we used it when we had a few bags & a pizza one night. ;-)
I think that adding some shelves in the bathroom above the toilet would really help with organizing yourselves. Also some coat hooks. A TV is also needed. I noticed there was cable, etc there so a t.v. would have been really nice. Matches or a lighter for the nice candle.
It was nice to be welcomed with a bottle of wine and a few items in the fridge and cupboards to start us off. Which we used.
Thank you for that.
We do recommend Alessandro's Apartment. Small but very nice. The pictures show exactly what you get. We'd stay here again for sure. Thank you Alessandro! Brian & Shelley
