We had mixed feelings about our stay at this airbnb. To be fair, we weren't expecting perfection. We already expected it to be on the smaller side, and maybe some wear and tear (based on the previous reviews). I'll start with the PROS: The bathroom and kitchen were very clean and modernized. Nice hot water. Paloma was accommodating in that she made good efforts to have someone come over and help us with minor issues that we'd encountered. She responded back to us in a timely mannner. It was walking distance to Buckingham Palace, the Westminster Cathedral, and several restaurants. The CONS: We were surprised to find big stains and tears alongside the carpet. Smudges on the futon and some hairs on the bed sheet, (which were washed). Paloma's house maid was kind enough to bring over new sheets! The first night was rough, since the shower vent made a loud 'pop' during my shower, causing a black out in the apartment. I literally jumped. Not a safe feeling, bathing in the dark..Luckily, my fiance fixed the problem in the fuse box and got the lights working. To be honest, running into all these unexpected issues was an inconvenience. However, things went smoothly after that. Paloma was very kind enough to let us store our bags for a few hours until our departure! Also, we didn't mind the stairs, it was actually a good work out. It's a prime location. If you're looking to be out and about most of the time, (and less time indoors) then it is a good place for you. Ideal for 2, maybe 3 people.
