***Due to some issues we experienced with the host after our stay I STRONGLY urge everyone booking to snap some photos or record some videos during the check in and check out process. ***
I cannot recommend booking this spot and suggest looking elsewhere for accommodations in London if you have the means to do so. This location is relatively convenient, but it is not worth the hassle of dealing with the host.
Pros:
Decent location, some attractions do take around 30 minutes to get to by tube but the station is only a few blocks away. Make sure to use a credit card or GPay/Apple Pay enabled device to get tickets at the cheaper price
Clean and modern space with a nice, large shower
Cons:
Host has poor communication skills and was not helpful in addressing issues we were experiencing
WiFi only worked sporadically and the speed was slow when working (Host ran a speedtest on her own device and got .2 down .6 up).
The living room got pretty cold at night, make sure to bundle up if the heater still isn’t assembled
You can literally hear everything on the street outside. This was not too bad on Sunday but Friday and Saturday night sounded like turn 1 at Daytona. A capable mechanic could probably diagnose engine problems of passing cars from inside.
The scaffolding above the doorway makes this worse as it turns the entire patio into an echo chamber for noises. Conversations from pedestrians walking by on the sidewalk come in clear enough for you to feel like you should be minding your own business.
