I know I am very particular and have a high standard, but there was a lot of maintenance and cleanliness issues with this apartment. I have to be honest and say that I found the position, as a single female very isolated, and strangely for London, either no one or only 1 other on the street once you turned off the main road, and this made me feel very insecure. The view from the apartment is incredible, and all my communication with Craig excellent, however stains on the bed head in the master prompted me to use the second bedroom. This had stains on the lamp shade, dirt in the wardrobe and stains on the bed frame, right next to your face. There was also unidentifiable white stains on the living room floor. Although the windows were open to air the apartment when I arrived, clearly there had been a smoker in there as the smell was strong. I actually checked out 1 night into a 7 night stay, and was wrong to say I had a family emergency. I should have been upfront and explained that the apartment was not clean, but I just wanted to leave. Apologies Craig. I should have given you the opportunity to rectify, but I just didn't like it at all. I also was not happy with a man entering the apartment at 9am and asking me if I was alone!! He had been advised I was leaving and probably came to clean, but I had given my time as 11am to vacate. Craig has a strict cancellation policy so I have received no refund for the 6 nights I didn't stay, but having to check into a hotel and pay twice was not fun. Yes the view is fantastic, but that is all
