I got to know this place well, as I was there for nearly four months. I chose it because of the proximity to the school I attended. I grew to absolutely love the location. Easy walks to three tube stations and buses; a bit further but easily walkable to Oxford Street, Selfridges, Liberty, and Marlebone. Lidl, M&S and Boots are nearby for prepared meals or other needs. One block to cafes. The apartment is in a building that is very quiet- I rarely saw residents. While I was there walls were painted, carpeting laid and they renovated the lobby. No construction noise like earlier posts mentioned. The apartment is clean, comfortable, but not fancy. It needs a little TLC- a knob glued, a shelf tightened- they know. The bedding never matches but that's bc it's not someone's home. It's got what one needs especially for a stay. Ayoob is responsive, and, he is under pressure as I imagine all landlords in UK and Europe, as they face huge jumps in utility costs. The price is fair for the area.
