Andrea’s place is beautiful- the pictures can’t even do it justice. Wonderful large windows for lots of light. Beautifully decorated, comfortable furniture. Beds were very comfortable and plenty of blankets and pillows. Nice amenities throughout and all kinds of books to browse. The bathrooms are small but clean, and the kitchen had more than enough dishes and utensils to eat well.
The location is PERFECTLY situated on Portobello Road, and close to Sainsburys, Tescos, gorgeous fruit and veggie stands in the market and many delicious restaurants and bars just steps away. All kinds of shopping within walking distance.
The neighborhood is noisy at all hours of the day and night, but it’s lively and most of the people I met were charming.
Check in is tricky and a bit of a hassle if you travel with a lot of stuff like I do, but that was the only less than 100% positive thing about my 5 night stay.
Overall 5-stars - highly recommend!
