Stayed at Biba’s for two nights in mid-September. Before check-in, she sent very detailed instructions which was nice and she also was gracious enough to allow for early check-in. The check-in process was mostly smooth, but the lock box storing the keys was quite difficult to get into. (Upon check out, I had to leave the keys at reception because I could not get the lock box open).
The studio itself is okay for a short stay if you don’t plan on spending much time in the room. The towels and bed linens could stand to be replaced as they weren’t fresh/new looking.
Lastly, while the listing advertises portable air conditioner, there wasn’t one. Instead there were portable fans. I reached out to the host and it might be “lost in translation” issue because portable air conditioners and portable fans are not interchangeable terms in American English, but I believe they may be interchangeable in British English. Something to keep in mind if you need air conditioning.
Pros:
- location
- responsive host.
Overall, an okay place for a quick trip to London.
