I can't say enough good things about Clare's place! We have been traveling across Europe for two months now and have stayed in a lot of Airbnbs. There are many give and takes one experiences, for example size versus location etc. Clare's place has most all of those covered. It was very spacious and perhaps the layout made it seem even more so. There was plenty of room and it was nice to have the washer in it's own space, not in the kitchen. Speaking of the washer, it worked awesome! Clothes came out of the spin very nearly dry. It only took a few hours of hanging for them to be fully dry.
Along those lines, the internet worked well, and the TV was actually large enough to see not to mention that it was a newer smart TV.
The kitchen had all you need to prepare a meal if you wish, the couch was comfy as was the bed. Getting in and checking out were a snap, and the location is perfect! Close to Hyde park, shops and restaurants, not to mention short walk to any of three Underground lines, from which you can get anywhere you want in London. Also close to Paddington, which has an easy airport connection or connection by rail to all over the UK.
We really could not have asked for anything else. In our case Clare was extra accommodating because we had originally booked another Airbnb stay a few blocks away. It turned out to be our one "lemon" of a place during our whole trip. I won't elaborate much but if you read a review of another place close by that describes the TV as a non-functional contemporary art piece then run! And book Clare's like we did! :-)
She was super responsive and helpful and let us check in immediately so we could get the heck out of the other place as fast as possible.
We loved our stay and definitely recommend Clare's flat as a perfect place to stay in London.
