Catherine met us at the flat with a warm smile and friendly welcome. She showed us round and explained how things worked (eg. the heating) and she had left basics in the fridge for us (milk, eggs, butter, and there were plenty of kitchen staples such as olive oil, spices, tea and coffee etc).
We felt at home straight away, the apartment is comfortable and stylish and even nicer than it looks on the photos.
Great location, it was just a 10 minute walk at the most to Crystal Palace Triangle where there are lots of lovely bars and restaurants. We tried 'Numidie', an Algerian restaurant, which was fab and I will be giving it 5* on Trip adviser.
Overall we really enjoyed our stay at Catherine's apartment and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone else.
