Brenda's apartment is adorable! We really loved the small court yard that let in a lot of light and you can't beat the location. Just steps from Portobello Rd, many cafes, shops and bus stops made it very convenient to explore the area of Notting Hill. We purchased farm fresh eggs from the market on Portobello Rd and some other breakfast items at the grocery store in order to have breakfast at the apartment and save a bit of money.
It is clear that this is their primary home, so the apartment is fully equipped with everything you may need.
The only negative was the comfort of the mattresses. You can feel the coils which made it hard to get a good night's sleep and we often woke up with back and neck aches.
Other than that the apartment is perfect for a holiday in London.
The market on Portobello Rd is best on Saturdays as it has a lot more stalls with tons of food options. I really enjoyed the Paella stall.
We visited The Distillery a couple if times for drinks and had an amazing Italian dinner at Osteria Basilico.
