This is my first time using AirBnB and it went very well. I stayed in Ateeq's apartment for 9 days. We were a family of 6 (2 adults and 4 children) and it accommodated us very comfortably. The apartment is wonderful, spacious, very clean, and well maintained. The kitchen is equipped with everything you may need, the heating was excellent in all areas; bedrooms, bathrooms, and living room. Location is fantastic; almost everything you need is within walking distance (Sainsbury , TESCO, a variety and wide range of restaurants: Indian – Italian – Arabic – Halal food – fast food chains), Bayswater tube station is about 5 min walk. Check in and out was very smooth. Early check in was a bonus.
Ateeq was a very nice and friendly host. He was caring and responsive. When I had problem with internet he immediately called the internet service provider and they send a staff member the following day, but the problem was not resolved, then I called Ateeq again, he bought me a new router but that did not seem to solve the problem which I would not blame Ateeq for because it is out of his control. He was very apologetic and offered to send someone to do the housekeeping for me, which I thank him for.
The only thing that may be worth noticing (which I would not call it a negative thing) is the bed mattresses; they were OK for me but for those expecting fancy mattresses like those in 5 star hotels I would say no they are not.
All in all, my family and I really enjoyed our stay and definitely I recommend it and would take it again.
