A nice flat in a good location, tastefully and comfortably renovated. The sofas and beds are good quality and comfortable. There is also a large, Smart TV, with all the usual apps.
The flat is near the river, Richmond Hill, the station, shops and restaurants. It’s also not far from Richmond Park. It’s easy to get to Kew, Teddington, Hampton Court and Central London from here, so a good base for exploring.
The kitchen seemed well equipped, although we didn’t cook. I’ve suggested to the agency they should provide a few dishwasher tablets though, as it’s a reasonable expectation given the price of the accommodation. (There weren’t any, as another reviewer has commented.)
The apartment was clean on the whole, although the bathroom rug/mat wasn’t, so I’ve mentioned this to the agency. I’ve also suggested they provide a cafetière, a Nespresso-style machine with a few coffee pods and a pint of milk in the fridge. These seem to be the norm these days, and rightly so for hotel prices. The apartment had a tiny solo cafetière, but there were four of us.
This is probably out of the owners’ hands, but the communal entrance hall is pretty grim, with dirty carpet and grubby wallpaper. Our hearts sank when we walked in, but the flat is much nicer than that, thankfully. Unfortunately, it didn’t make me want to rush back though.
