I was really looking forward to returning to London and staying in the beautiful neighborhood of Notting Hill but unfortunately, that was one of the few nice parts of Max and Billie's place. I agree with the reviews that the walls are very thin. It feels a bit like a college campus where even with your apartment door closed, you will hear every little sound in the hallway. It didn't feel like the most luxurious experience as it seemed there was zero privacy between myself and the neighbors.
However, the biggest issue for me was the wifi. There is a different network for each floor and despite trying all of them, I had no wifi for my full stay. Max and Billie responded to my messages and even sent a communication to the wifi provider but still the issue remained and I ended up having to buy a sim just to use maps, send messages, or make any phone calls.
The apartment itself was very clean and aptly organized for a small space and the large window overlooking the neighborhood was lovely. I also appreciated the digital keys which felt quite secure and convenient. Although Max and Billie replied to my messages, the wifi could not be remediated so I do not think I would stay here again.
