Upon arrival, Sylvan warmly welcomed us. She offered us tea, and we carried our bags up two full flights of narrow stairs, which we weren't expecting, as the apartment is on the third floor of the house. As Americans, we weren't expecting the way the shower was set up. The shower only has a half curtain, and we were worried that we would get the entire bathroom wet. The way the skylight is situated near the shower, having no curtain, it felt as though everyone outside could see in. Though we felt we were staying in a very safe neighborhood, the closest tube stop was a 15 minute walk away. This was a rather uncomfortable walk with luggage, but otherwise it was fine. Sylvan was very easy to get into contact with, and she was very flexible with our check in and check out times. Overall we had a very positive experience staying here and we would stay here again.
