Alessandro was a great host, and the apartment was just what we were looking for - after a bumpy start at the airport (which we have to thank Alessandro for getting us out of !!), we found the apartment in a nice neighbourhood which felt safe, even late at night. The apartment itself seems well-maintained, and was also close to the tube to all the main attractions as well as the bus stop back from the west end. The snacks were a welcome treat for when we felt a bit peckish, though unfortunately we weren't able to get to the bottle of wine left for us!
Our only comments are that it was a bit small, which is to be expected in London, but the sink was a fair bit smaller than was practical (resulting in a lot of splashing- keep your clothes away and dry!), and the toilet didn't seem to flush properly the first few times you try (we texted and messaged Alessandro and his assistant about it but didn't hear back). Also, you could sometimes hear thudding from upstairs quite clearly. But definitely overall a great place to stay in terms of location and upkeep, would stay again!
