There’s no better location than Sohail’s place. You are so close to Kensington Gaddens, an absolute gem, and so close to all the spots you’d like wish to see in London. I am a huge walked, and literally walked everywhere from here. Additionally, you are less than 45 seconds’ walk from the tube. You can’t beat that.
Read the spade description carefully, and you’ll have no surprises. It’s cozy for one person, but if you’re coming to London to stay in your room, well then….
I was literally there to sleep at night. I was out and about most of the day. What I did find convenient and really appreciated was the communal refrigerator and kettle. I did boil hot water for some porridge, and stored some things in the fridge.
There are two shared toilets and one shared shower. I never had a problem accessing any.
Plenty of outlets in the room (two above the front of the bed, two at the foot of the bed.) Very handy!
Great communication in the lead up to my stay. Your baggage can be held, which is wonderful. Check out time is very generous.
Check in was super easy, as well.
WiFi was fast, and easy to use.
Things to note:
There are quite steep stairs going down. Because I arrived early, they held my baggage for me, and I was super grateful that they placed it in my room when it was ready. I might have struggled, as my bag was quite heavy.
If you are a light sleeper, do bring earplugs. While it was mostly quiet during my stay, you can hear when the main building door opens and closes. It was not often, but it can be heard. (Yes, I am a very, very light sleeper.)
I would definitely stay here again. (I actually wanted to extend my stay, but it was fully booked!)
Fantastic price, too! Highly recommend, especially if you’re planning to be out and about.
