The place is renovated and has all the necessary amenities. There was a washer and also a dryer for clothes. The apartment was clean and warm inside. Quite responsive and friendly host. The tube station is approximately a 15min walk and there is a bus station right outside the building.
On the downside is that in order to get to the apartment there are some stairs that are pretty steep and it is not that easy if you have luggage or bad knees. Also the bathroom is very small, it was fine for us but will be a bit difficult for larger people. There are some storages facilities around the building and it is a bit noisy in the morning but not too disturbing.
