Our initial reaction to this apartment was great! It felt similar to a hotel in a way with both the look and the general way the building is run. The apartment was what we expected and was perfect for our two days that we were going to spend in London. The location was fairly central for what we were planning on sightseeing. The one thing about this apartment that was below our expectations, was how closed off the apartment was when it came to the balcony and the view from it.From the balcony all you can see is another building and an alley way, and because it was so closed off their was no breeze or air coming into the apartment to cool it off. This then caused no airflow into the apartment and because of both the heat at the time of our stay in London and the lack of air conditioning, we sadly had to cut out stay short and go to a hotel because of the heat.
