This review is written from a US perspective.
I absolutely loved staying at Robin's flat. It reminded me of visiting friends in Brooklyn/NYC. Did it have all of the comfort's of MY home? No. Did it have all of the comforts of an urban 4 story walk up! Yes! Even a friendly neighborhood cat who would come up to us for pets and inside for a visit if we let him.
US folks this is a 4 story walk up with no AC but an amazing breeze and a lovely view from the living room window and great art surrounding you in each room.
The kitchen has most everything you need for your stay and a short walk to the corner store if you need an extra roll of paper towels or garbage bags (we stayed for 10 days so some supplies needed refilling which was fine). The bathroom is spacious. The separate bedroom made it easy for one of us to work while the other was resting. Note the bed is closer to a US full size than a US queen so larger bodied folks may have some challenges sharing. The bedroom itself was spacious and had a second desk and lighted mirror which was a great value add.
The building is very very quiet which was great and also a little strange for me as I am heavu footed and have a loud voice. Robin was extremely responsive and answered texts almost immediately when I had a question.
Note there is only one set of keys so if you are traveling partnered one of you will have to be without. This was the only challenge we had given that one of us was working in Central London and the other was working right down the street.
If I find myself in London again, which is liekly, I will be coming back to stay with Robin if the space is available. Walking distance to the tube and multiple bus routes. 20 minute walk to Camden Locke Market or 4 stops on the bus, 2 on the tube. Quick tube ride to the West End, Soho, Trafalgar Square and the Pier. THE BEST TANDOORI is around the corner and open until midnight.
Definetly a perfect stay for the perfect price and location for us!
