We stayed 5 days in this nice and stylish apartment. As a Swiss couple we enjoyed the unexpected “Swissness” of this place ☺. The bed was very comfortable, the kitchen well equipped, the shower big and nice and the living room was cosy with some convenient gadgets as television, Sonos speaker and an AppleTV with Netflix etc. There is also a combined wash machine / dryer at the lower floor.
We want to emphasise the cleanness of this place, which is very important for us.
Unfortunately the flat is badly sealed and therefore very loud. Even with closed windows. You can hear the highway and the train in the bedroom, the neighbours in the bathroom and the street in the living room. At times we were anxious that the fire brigade, the police cars and the ambulances would take a shortcut through our living room. Which directly affects the overall sleep quality.
We have appreciated the proximity to underground, bus and rental bike stations. You can reach the City of London in about 30 minutes and the Heathrow airport in about 50 minutes.
There are restaurants, shops, bakeries and pubs in a walking distance. Not to forget Portobello Market, which is around the corner and an absolute must see.
