Satisfactory stay at Lisa’s comfy Borough apartment. Fantastic location, many sights, places to eat, and grocery stores nearby. The Borough Market itself was a highlight. Lisa is incredibly kind and forthcoming with information. She is also very quick to respond to any queries. Early in our stay my partner and I noticed that the plastic shower cladding was partly coming away from the bathroom wall. I notified Lisa of this and she offered to fix the issue. Though as it was mutually agreed that it wasn’t affecting the usability or functionality of the shower it was offered that the shower would be fixed post our checkout. Additionally, as my partner and I arrived late in the evening after a long haul flight from Australia it was disappointing that the only thing in the fridge was a handful of ice cubes. Also, there was only one sachet of coffee in the tin. Simple touches like having the coffee topped up and possibly a small bottle of milk would have been appreciated.
In terms of location the apartment is fantastic. Lisa does make it clear that there are four flights of stairs and after a long day of walking they do get tiresome. Also, if traffic noise is a problem for your sleep there may also be an issue. As it’s Summer at the moment to sleep comfortably the windows needed to be opened for a cross breeze which brought traffic noise with it. Though we both slept comfortably.
Despite this, Lisa is a prompt and very professional Airbnb host. My partner and I enjoyed our stay and were particularly fond of the location being so close to the underground making the sights of London quickly and easily accessible.
