An honest review for the benefit of all involved parties.
As a frequent visitor to London it's hard to express not only how ideal the homes location is but also how tranquil. Sloane Square is vibrant, and Chelsea is an excellent location if you want to be very close to the action but in a quieter, more sane setting full of cafe's, shopping, and quaint streets. The Sloane Sq. tube station is literally a 3 minute walk from the apartment which makes for easy access to the city centers of London. Despite the proximity to Sloane Sq. (which is rather busy) the flat is remarkably quiet as the noise from the square is largely nonexistent as are the neighbors who share the courtyard.
The home itself is very nice and does not feel like an Ikea showroom as do so many other AirBnbs. The furniture and decorations are comfortable and original; the TV in the living room/parlor has a good selection of channels and there appears to be an active fireplace, although there was no guidebook stating how to use it and if doing so was acceptable. The couch and chairs were comfortable. The kitchen was small but nice with quality appliances. The dishwasher was much appreciated by the couple from Boston who live in a place without one, and the table was adequate for two people. Yet, like just about every AirBnb in Europe we've been to, there was a lack of utensils, cooking gear, etc. This was too bad as the neighborhood is chock full of cheese shops, fish markets, and other shops ideal for those who enjoy cooking. There were enough tools to get by, but it would have been nice if there was a bit more. It seems like most rentals we've been to (and we've been to many) consider cooking and the necessary utensils as an afterthought. Oh well. Speaking of cooking, the outdoor patio and table are an excellent place to have a meal and you'll feel like your somewhere in Cornwall or the Cotswold's and not in the near heart of London.
The bedroom was large with good storage and a comfortable bed. The windows allow for a good amount of light but has nice shutters to keep out any unwanted light. The bathroom is large with excellent amenities, particularly the shower. It felt more like a hotel room in Covent Garden than a rental. Really nicely done by Caroline.
Overall, this flat is excellent with nice, personal touches throughout. Its location can't be beat and it is very comfortable. Caroline responded immediately to the one question we had. As mentioned, the kitchen could use a bit more gear, but you'll be hard pressed to find a better flat, in a better location, for a better price, and we've stayed in 5 other AirBnb's in 5 other neighborhoods in the city of London. If this place is available, you don't need to look much further. Book it.
