My wife and I stayed at this AirBnB hosted by Barry for our honeymoon and our first time in England and we could not ask for a better experience. If you are looking to explore London and stay in a place that is convenient for travel, food and shops, this is the place.
Overall, this flat was perfect. It’s especially perfect anyone who want to adventure around London because of the prime location near the underground subway station. Also, there are unlimited shops and restaurants near by. There are pubs, pre-theater restaurants and seven dials market which is a nice street food plaza if your looking for a quick bite. It’s also close to Covent Market which has a bunch of shops and restaurants as well where you could easily spend a day exploring. There’s also a lot of theater in this area which we did not do unfortunately.
Importantly, for first timers from the US, we never felt unsafe in this area. Covent Market was always well lit, people bustling around and just overall good vibes. We did not have any negative experiences during our stay at the AirBnB, in the area of the AirBnB or England itself.
First, we arrived with our luggage a few hours before the check in time but Barry was kind enough to allow us to drop off our stuff while he prepared the AirBnB for us. He then gave us some suggestions to eat up time before the official check in. This was awesome for Barry to do for us which he did not have to do.
Next, when it was check in time we arrived at the AirBnB, Barry greeted us and gave us a full rundown on the flat itself which was lovely. The flat had all the proper accommodations and it was perfectly clean. There were even some fresh fruit, drinks in the fridge and snacks. We didn’t do any cooking ourselves but we definitely could have because the kitchen is well equipped. The bed and the bedroom were prefect for two with enough cabinet space for our weeks worth of clothes. The bathroom was perfect as well and never had problems with hot water. The living room had a nice little TV for entertainment and the couches were nice and comfortable so we couldn’t ask for much else.
THANK YOU BARRY! Your hospitality was a huge part of our honeymoon and we cannot thank you enough for being such a gracious host. Stay well!
Cheers,
Joe and Laurissa
