This is a really superb location in the heart of Battersea and not too far from the Clapham Junction rail station. The apartment is on a side street, so it's not extremely noisy even though the windows face the street. You do hear delivery motorcycles and such going by, but honestly it never woke me up at night and I'm a fairly light sleeper. Windows are a decent thickness and it's on the top (second) floor. Decor is nice and stylish. Neighbors do not bother you at all, tons of privacy, and a self check in process that isn't too bad (although be prepared to walk up a block at an incline with your luggage). The neighborhood is EXCELLENT. It's very safe, and has a great vibe. Tons of nice dining and coffee options for anytime of day. Really everything you may need is within walking distance and the neighborhood is fairly upscale, not sketchy or dodgy at all. Clapham Common park is a short walk away and it's lovely. The apartment is spacious, has a good shower and a comfortable bed. The kitchen is fine (although is does lack a microwave or a blender) and most cupboards are packed with owner's belongings. Also, make sure to note that the refrigerator and the freezer are separate, I got confused as the fridge is hidden looking like a cabinet :) It's a bit tricky to find outlets so I would recommend putting in a power strip or two, especially in the bedroom. Also, good to note that the stairway is quite narrow and it's tricky getting luggage up and down so come prepared. Also, contrary to another review, I did not find it to be 5 minutes from any underground tube or subway station, more like 10-15 minute walk. But still not that bad. I pride myself on leaving the kind of honest and helpful reviews that I would want to read, so I have to say that the only kind of humorously bad aspect was that I didn't speak once with Richard, but was always responded to by "Richard's Support Team" which gave comically horrific answers to most of my questions. Thankfully none of my questions were of a dire nature. For example they told me to take the Victoria Line from Gatwick (you can't), and when I asked if there was a baking tray they said "check the cabinets", which really made me laugh, haha, as if i wouldn't think of that. When I asked if there was a microwave they said they didn't know as they hadn't been to the apartment. Basically it sounds like they are a remote team at a calling center overseas and just looking everything up online. Even though I asked a few times to speak to someone actually in London, they politely dodged that request :) Regardless, it's a great location and place suits the price just fine. I would stay here again and I would love to have the pleasure of actually...
