Everything was nice and new and clean and bright! The location is near enough to Victoria Station so we could go everywhere we wanted. Okay, I will confess that when I booked I didnt read the part that explained the bath is shared. But that was no problem, we found a spotless attractive w.c. and another bathroom with shower and toilet right outside our door. It was as convenient as having it inside and never was in use when we wanted to use it. This is a compact studio but there is ample storage for two. Alessandro is a great host, he made sure we knew where everything was and directed us to some businesses in the neighborhood when we asked where to shop. We will definitely stay here again.
