This place had such good reviews, I expected no issues staying here for 2 weeks. Unfortunately, the apartment did not meet our expectations based on the listing and reviews. We were excited to stay here because Aminat was such a good communicator before we checked in. However, once we arrived, we were disappointed. We had to ask for towels because we did not receive any when we arrived. Once we asked, there was still a delay in receiving them because they had to be washed. The washing machine was broken half the time we were there. The kitchen lacked basic amenities, like a microwave (some may argue that's not a basic amenity, but in my experience staying in AirBnBs around the world, almost every place I've stayed in has had one). The kettle was so dirty, we couldn't use it. Dirty pans, in which fish was fried by the host, were often left out, making the entire apartment smell like fish. The distance into city center was longer than described in the listing. We found best case scenario for roundtrip to Piccadilly Circus Station to be about 2.5 hours. The finishings in the apartment were run-down. The bathroom was only cleaned every 2 weeks, so it's up to guests to keep it clean in the meantime. The heater in the bedroom could not be adjusted and ran full blast all night. On the plus side the room is very cozy, especially when it's cold outside. The place is inexpensive, but even considering the price I do not recommend staying here as a tourist, as you will end up paying so much in time and money to take public transit into the city. I'm not sure why this place has such high ratings, but I have been staying in AirBnBs while traveling for about a year now, and this is nowhere near what I have come to expect from a 4.5 star place on AirBnB.
