I don't know what I've done to deserve this amazing streak on Airbnb, but Seb's place was definitely another highlight! What an amazing place, in a part of London we didn't know, but that was really pleasant and vibrant (fortunately not literally next door) and conveniently located. And we were his first guests!
Seb's apartment is absolutely amazing in many ways, I almost don't know where to start :)
It's clean, modern, full of stuff you might need, and just very well designed and decorated. It's cozy and comfortable, and absolutely perfect for those lazy evenings my daughter and I appreciate after a long day of scavenging the streets of London. Great beds, great kitchen, great bathrooms, everything new and fresh and well thought out.
When we visited London it had been scorching hot for weeks on end, and the temperature was way over 30 degrees Celcius. But the apartment handled that very well, and we loved sitting on the cute balcony that faces the main street, in the morning and in the evening sun. One of the fun details is that the house is fully automated and intelligent, and Amazon's Alexa turned out to be a good and reliable new friend. Or is it a digital butler?
Everything you might expect from a future Superhost was there, from a comfortable little sitting nook to a big-ass tv and all the equipment you might need when being and living in a house. For a moment, I was thinking about calling it something like 'a luxurious apartment with a hotel feel', but that doesn't sound right. Hotels are mostly practical and quite distant and impersonal, and that's not at all my experience here.
To conclude: the house is clean and neat and really cozy, and it's obvious that someone put a lot of thought into making it feel luxurious and rewarding to hang out. Nice little restaurants are scattered everywhere within walking distance, there's a supermarket only minutes away, and public transport is very close by.
I guess all this automatically answers the typical Airbnb question 'Would you return to Seb's place if the occasion arises'? Hell yeah!
