I couldn’t agree more with Simon’s review from Sept 2022.
We stayed here on our last night in the UK, and there was more trouble than anticipated for one night’s stay.
PROS:
- Conveniently located in a beautiful and quiet area in Notting Hill.
- Billie was incredibly responsive and communicative. Allowed early check in and bag storage at their office location, only 0.7 miles away (15 minutes walking distance).

CONS:
- Again, Simon’s review said it all. Please include the fact that this flat is on the 5th floor. The stairs are incredibly misleading as they verge down into a hallway and you still have 2 more flights with a narrow hallway. If you’re fit, with strong knees, and minimal baggage, this will be fine. However, climbing stairs on a hot summer’s day, be advised there’s only 1 fan in the flat.
- We had so much difficulties with the shower. There was no manual on how to use it. I was stewing like soup and had to finish washing my hair in the kitchen sink. It wouldn’t go lower than 45C and kept switching to 54/56C.
- The window blinds were broken by the previous guest so when we stayed there, it was held up by tape. We were properly informed by Billie; however, it did fall us on at 8 AM. Not the best way to wake up.
- For the stairs alone, the price of the flat isn’t justifiable. It was not as spacious as advertised. At best, it’s for a solo traveler.
