I do NOT recommend staying here. The pictures and description of the apartment are not clear and misleading.
The host did not mention that they also live and work from there all of the time. living room and shared kitchen are one, small room - making this space too tight for comfort.
The only positive is the location - close to transport and several tube stations.
The guest room is small and has a large bed which allows limited movement. It faces the back of multiple office buildings (no privacy unless you always close your curtains) and a communal rubbish bin yard right outside and below the window (rubbish bin collection is loud and noisy from here)
Very poor mattress and thin, old pillows due to which I developed a back and neck problem during my 28 day stay. The bathroom needs serious work - mould at sink and bath and the floor tiles are full of years neglect. The communal areas need to be heavily cleaned and ideally redone - before any of this is presented to a paying guest
The host was nearly always in the apartment and we felt very uncomfortable with his personal behaviour during our stay.
On checkout we gave him notice the previous night and asked him to have our £80 cash deposit ready (which we paid him promptly on our check in) he waited until we had loaded all our bags in a taxi and at the front door then told us he had spent the money and could not give it to us that day. I insisted he did - for which he then went to a cash point (leaving us, our friend and taxi driver waiting for 20 minutes on the street) and got.
I strongly advise this listing is not allowed until he sorts a lot of issues out before paying guests partake in this experience.
