What an absolute gem of a find! Charming, gated, reasonably priced, and quiet. Quiet? In London? Yes. And it was blissful.
Both my boyfriend and I had been to England/London before, and we were on a very specific agenda driven schedule. This is entirely reflective on us, and not the hosts, we just kinda assumed Uber and taxis would know where to pick us up and drop us off, sometimes we had to walk a block and a half to a more populated road to arrange transportation. Not a problem at all, we adjusted quickly. Had we had more time to navigate the Tube or bus schedule, this would be a non issue. Speaking of which, close and convenient Tube stations and bus routes nearby.
Walking distance to Notting Hill, & Little Venice. Stroll along the canals. And the smells of the food! Such a diverse area!
I have had good experiences in the past with Airbnb, Bruce has not. He was a little leery when I took over our accommodations. He was beyond relieved. We live in the heart of a big city in the US. Albeit, a fraction of the size of London. We are used to noises all night. Our first night there, as we lay down to sleep, we commented on how quiet it was. And then it started to rain. It hit all the skylights. It made the most beautiful sound. We slept for 10 solid hours.
Did I mention it was quiet?
We would go back again in a heartbeat.
