PROS:
- Location is great if you wanna be near all the pubs.
- Clean place
CONS:
- The actual location of this place differs than the listing. We only found that out AFTER booking. It's actually about a 10 min walk east of the old street tube station, rather than what seems to be a 2 min walk based on the address provided on this listing. We wouldn't have booked it had we known this from the start. The public transit in london is great so we still got around very easily, just not what we had expected.
- Kitchen stove didn’t work -- this is the primary reason we booked an Airbnb vs a hotel. Host responded and said he would get someone to look at it but nothing happened after that. There’s a microwave that did work though.
- Horrible wifi that cuts out a lot
- Portable heater warms the bedroom up in 20 min but the rest of the apartment remains so cold.
- Water is hot but make sure no one uses the sink while you’re showering or it'll become a cold shower for a few seconds
- No gender neutral body soap was offered. They only had men shampoo and men body soap, so if you're cool with that there's no issue. But in my experience, it's the first airbnb I've stayed at that didn't offer just typical soap that works for everyone.
