This was our first experience in renting an apartment through Airbnb. Chil’s immediate responses throughout the booking process and that continued until the day we arrived in London on late evening eve of Christmas impressed us. The apartment is exactly as described and shown:- clean and neat, 1 min walk to Notting Hill Gate metro station. Tesco, M&S and everything we need was within 5 - 10 mins walk. Plus point that it is located near the famous Portobello district, lending lively and safe atmosphere. The kitchen is equipped with almost all utensils and crockeries. Chil had prepared the necessity like cereal, milk, floor, oil etc. A saviour as all shops and transportations were closed on Christmas Day. We are thankful for her kind gesture.
We spent our daily morning coffee at the beautiful patio while watching the dark winter sky cleared up. It was a nice addition to the memorable stay.
The only downside is the small bedroom. The room is without closet or space to fit our clothes except for the 3 drawers. With limited storage space, we left most of our clothes in the suitcases in the living room. The angle of the bed is quite awkward that the one sleeping nearer to the wall has to crawl in or out from the side of bed when the other is sleeping. However, Chil made up for it all with her thoughtfulness. We would certainly stay in the apartment again in future. Thank you.
