Overall, we had a decent stay. Etsh's place was located in a very central area, close to Queensway/Bayswater Metro and Hyde/Kensington Park. As described, it's on the 5th floor with no lift (about 55 steps to the top), but someone was kind enough to help us with our luggage. The room is small, a bit dusty, and doesn't get the greatest ventilation, but it was fine for our two night stay. The TV is primarily radio (no video) and the shower have some water pressure issues that made it difficult to use at times. However, yhe host, Etsh, was kind and responsive to these issues, which made the experience much better for us! It was a good value for such a great location, even with a few hiccups along the way.
Thank you Etsh for being so attentive during our stay!
