Alessandro is a very good host and the apartment is in an excellent location. I would suggest that this is a great place for a younger couple and not so great for older people. We didn’t use upstairs at all because of the very steep staircase (almost like a ladder access) and the shower is tiny. And I mean really tiny. The linen is tired and needs replacing and the pillows were lumpy. Having said that, Alessandro was very accommodating when we had a mixup with the check out date which was completely my fault. He very kindly tried to find an alternative for us and also offered to store our bags if needed. I recommend this apartment if you’re after a great location central to all London has to offer.
