This was a costly and disappointing experience for us. It was clean and the location was good but I would not recommend this property to a couple looking for a comfortable stay while touring London.
The pictures are quite deceiving, wide angle shots that give the impression the place is more spacious than it is. The suggestion that it is suitable for four people is sheer fantasy. The back bedroom is adequate and the bathroom and toilet were OK. The front bedroom, once a suitcase and a backpack have been placed in it has no room at all. There is no side table next to the bed because the distance from the bed to the entrance way wall is too narrow; I tried the reading light but that flickered on and off and I just left it. There is a small desk near the window overlooking the street but that area has to be for luggage so there’s not much you can do there.
What made the place a real disappointment for us was that there was no area to kick back and relax after visiting London during the day without going in to the bedroom. The kitchen area and sitting area are basically one and it is impossible for two people to sit and relax to any degree there. The so-called couch was a cheap seat just about 4’ across, barely enough for the two of us to relax in so one would retire to the bedroom. The table next to the window overlooking the street was a small table as well. This was not worth the money and I would deter any couple, let alone four people who would not be able to sit anywhere, from renting it. The photos are deceptive.
For two teenagers going to town for a football game at the Emirates stadium, partying and heading back to the pad just to sleep it works; or a single person needing a place to stay. The TV was four feet from the couch and only had one channel, a home improvement channel. Were it not for the fact that we would have lost money we would have left and found somewhere else. We felt ripped off to be honest and it contributed to an unpleasant end to what had been a lovely trip.
