The street entry, not descript, the stairway up to the apartment, plain, but as soon as we opened the door we realized we had booked a special place. It was exactly as we expected, frankly even better, with many small touches that offered small surprises in every corner of this lovely apartment. The location is perfect to explore Portobello Road, at the top end of the market road, but the first (or last, I suppose, depending on one's perspective) market stalls are set up on the street right outside. The kitchen was well apointed, the art work was super, and the number of large mirrors in the apartment made it seem larger and more elegant. The days we spent in the apartment were amongst the coldest in recent memory in London, and the apartment was not toastly warm, but there were numerous blankets scattered around and Dylan provided a very good space heater that quickly warmed up the spaces we were occupying. Fantastic. If it is available, book it!
