We are a party of five friends who stayed 4 nights and had a lovely time in Madhu's apartment. The apartment looks exactly as it does in the photos, and the common areas were bright and well-lit. The area feels safe, and the location is convenient, not too far from the major sights and shops by bus or Tube, but away from crowds and heavy traffic (though it can be pretty noisy when the windows are open, as the flat faces the main road). Good coffee from the Italian deli just downstairs, plenty of nice restaurants and cafes across the road, and supermarkets/shops for groceries and basic necessities a few minutes' walk away. The kitchen is compact but equipped with everything needed to prepare and serve a simple meal, and it was stocked with coffee, tea, milk, peanut butter, jam and a small pack of scones, which was a nice surprise!
Hostmaker kept in touch before and during our stay so check-in was smooth, despite our later than expected arrival due to horrendous weekend traffic. As a previous guest mentioned, the building is just off the main road so it's convenient for cab pick-ups (vital when you have a number of luggage to load). We requested for additional fans since the weather forecast predicted temperatures in the mid-20s, and were provided with one for each living/sleeping space; they definitely came in handy during the muggy weather during the first couple of days. As it's on the top floor, the flat may get pretty warm in summer (note there's no airconditioning).
There were a few teeny maintenance issues like a loose kitchen tap and wonky window joint in the bedroom but nothing that caused any major problems. The apartment was clean, with comfortable double beds (adequate size for average folks, possibly a bit tight for two taller/bigger people), good water pressure from the fixed shower heads, sufficient hangers and plenty of storage space (wardrobes, chest of drawers, bathroom shelves). All in all, a great base for a London holiday for a group of friends or a family!
