Alex was very easy to communicate with, both in the lead up to the visit, as well as during the time we were there. He accommodated my early check-in request, and was even on hand when I arrived, to greet me and show me around. The apartment itself is large and spacious, and comfortably appointed. The location is outstanding, just a few minutes walk to Notting Hill tube station, and to Portobello Road. I would recommend Alex as a host as well as this apartment - staying here for a week was a very pleasant and comfortable experience.
