The place was adequate, but very sparsely decorated and with very old, worn carpet. There are 28 steps up, not at all what I was told (10-13). Check-in was very easy. It's in a very nice, quiet area and not a bad walk to the Tube, as well as a Whole Foods Market. The living room is large and bright. The kitchen is tiny and has hardly any pots and pans, and only salt and pepper for seasoning, as well as two - count 'em two - ancient tea bags. It would have been nice if I could have had a cup of tea or coffee on our first night without having to go shopping. The bathroom is older and had only hand-pumped soap, so we needed our own shower soap and shampoo. The bed is as hard as a rock.
