My girlfriend and I had a wonderful two night stay in this gorgeous apartment.

The flat itself might even be slightly bigger than it seems in the pictures, which is always a nice surprise in a london property. The bedroom and bathroom are cosy, but the living spaces more than make up for it. It is impeccably and stylishly decorated, as you see in the pictures, and did not disappoint in real life. It is also completely set up for visitors including a book explaining in detail how everything works and recommendations for local restaurants, etc.

It is located on a nice safe street right next to a great deli for picking up mornings coffees and pastries and a few pretty decent restaurants. It also benefits from having one of London's better local newsagents/groceries that sells organic products (unusual!).

It's not downtown as such, but it's a central residential neighbourhood and not far from the West End. I hang out mostly around Notting Hill which is a very short bus ride (or walk) away so for me it was ideal. We also took a walk down to the river around Hammersmith which is 10 minutes away and there were some lovely riverside pubs.

The host was very friendly and communicative throughout and obviously takes her role and her guest's needs very seriously. It was organised efficiently and the whole check-in/check-out was very smooth. It felt professional.

Knowing London well, as I do, I thought this flat was great value, and thats a rarity in this expensive city. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a fun experience of living like a londoner, with a not inconsiderable degree of style...
