Melissa’s place is located near Notting hill and near a subway station and is very easily accessible. The place was very nice and large enough for a family of four. Not an obvious requirement in a big city. The host was very responsive and quick to respond. Central heating and hot water was great.
The beds were comfortable and the kids’ room was separate and big.
Minimal remarks:
We arrived very late after out original flight was cancelled and missed the first night of our stay. I know airbnb does not refund on last-minute changes, but as a airbnb host myself, I have always tried to refund on such occasions. I believe its the main reason to travel via airbnb and not hotels. So, the host had every right not to refund the sum, but I’m not sure its the right thing to do.
Also, no coffee/tea/sugar/water bottles in the place and no electricity transformers (a pretty obvious requirement for tourists in England). Shame. It’s a simple gesture to make.
