Most important fact: we would stay here again in a heartbeat. The apartment is immaculate, well-supplied, comfortable. The neighborhood, with the canal, Camden Lock, Regent’s Park, Primrose Hill, Camden Town market, etc., is diverse and engaging. It’s a less-than-10-minute walk to both Chalk Farm and Camdentown tube stations. We found Chalk Farm to be most convenient, especially as the walk runs right past Morrison’s huge grocery store and café. Chalk Farm station is also less crowded.
Agnes is an excellent communicator. She arranged for us to be met by friendly Miranda, who explained aspects of the apartment and neighborhood and was easily available by phone for questions.
Agnes’s bookshelves contain so many fascinating volumes that one wishes to take a day to stay in the apartment and read.
The kitchen is easily usable and we were also able to do a load of laundry. Note: be careful to firmly push the refrigerator door completely closed every time.
Anyone with mobility issues needs to know that there are significant stairs – the equivalent of one flight to the first floor and another flight to the bedroom and bathroom. We are people in our 70s who used both sleeping areas. The person sleeping on floor #1 had to negotiate wooden stairs in the middle of the night to reach the bathroom. Thankfully, we are fit and it was not a problem.
