Toby & Annetta were both very helpful & welcoming and we stayed in another of their flats (the basement) during a previous week which we enjoyed, unfortunately we were not so keen on the 1st Floor Flat, we found it to be a lot noisier & were very aware of movement from the different flats around us, also the smell of cooking from other flats frequently permeated the lounge which seemed to carry all the pungent elements of the food rather than the pleasant bits and lingered throughout the flat. The sofa had no solid structure to it & was uncomfortable to sit on as its foam type structure just collapsed to the floor leaving us unable to both enjoy relaxing in front of the tv after a long evening and one of us having to sit on a dining chair.

If you do not need to use the flat as a home from home & its just a bed for the night then its location is great, Southerton Road is a quiet road in itself & parking is generally feasible if you need it and you are a quick bus or tube ride from a multitude of locations and places to eat and drink.

But if like us you needed to spend a lot of time in the flat & it was a base for a new job then it wasn't so ideal, the only power points in the bedroom for example are at the foot of the bed - I use a sleep apnoea machine and it hadn't crossed my mind that a bedroom wouldn't have bedside unit type areas, bedside lamps or plug points nearer to the bed as all other places we've used from airbnb & similar have had this, or indeed that a flat with a washing machine would not have an iron & ironing board or tablets for the dishwasher for example.
