My friend and I stayed in this lovely apartment in London for 8 nights. Here’s our thoughts:
Pros:
Lovely building which felt safe. Host is very responsive to messages or calls. Multiple transportation options just steps from the front door making it easy to get where you’re going. 2 bedrooms, one bathroom, a living room area, kitchen, dining table and washing machine (no dryer). One bedroom is on the main floor, the second is up some stairs on a loft. Lots of natural light with large windows.
Cons:
If you travel in the cooler months, be prepared to freeze. We traveled from Canada in the winter (March) and we were freezing when in the apartment. Didn’t have a thermometer with us but there were days when it felt warmer outside. The host advised us to use space heaters that were in the apartment but they had the most minimal heat output and didn’t help. If you stay for more then a few days, be prepared to find a store and buy your own toilet paper and hand washing soap. When we asked the host for more, they replied saying they only provide for the first few days. We were also only provided with one larger towel despite the host knowing there was 2 of us here so I was stuck drying myself with a hand towel after a shower.
Also, please note that there is a flight of narrow, metal stairs to enter the apartment as well as the stairs to the second bedroom.
Thankfully, we came to London to see all the things and not hang out in our apartment.
