Pros
The location is the best part of the apartment. A three-minute walk to Earls Court tube station. An easy trip to Heathrow and also very convenient for any place you’d like to visit in the city.The apartment was clean and comfortable and generally as described although slightly shabbier than the pictures suggest. There are some absolutely wonderful local restaurants, pubs, and shops within walking distance and the neighborhood is lovely.
Cons
We felt the five-star hotel description was slightly misleading. The beds were comfortable but the pillows were terrible, flat and cheap. There is noticeable train noise in the flat. Also, this is a basement flat down narrow stairs which may not be suitable for elderly guests.
The owners have a company called Hostmaker handling check-in. The company left us a complimentary coffee, scones, and tea but I missed the connection to the host which is one of the things I really enjoy about Airbnb. I always appreciate the local knowledge of the hosts and this is missing in this flat. The flat has lots of religious books but no books about the local area or information about West London.
