Hannah was a lovely host and very easy to reach and always responded promptly. Check in was very easy with a code provided in advance. The flat had everything we needed for our stay over 5 nights. We appreciated the washing machine, drying rack and Nespresso for a morning coffee! The flat has had lovely updates and feels very modern. The bathroom is updated and feels large for London standards.
A few things I wish I’d known prior to booking:
The flat is at basement level. Both bedrooms get lovely natural light but the front room does not. The garden is accessed through a door in the primary bedroom and looked lovely in pictures but we were not able to use it as we couldn’t get the door open.
There is major construction happening directly across the street. A multi block convention center/ multi use development is being built. Construction noise (Jack hammering) starts promptly at 8am. This was only problematic the day we needed to work from the flat. Fortunately the work ends by 5pm and the neighborhood is very quiet at night. Absolutely no noise to disturb sleep.
Finally, as a foreigner I wish I realized the location of the flat relative to central London and the majority of what we planned to do during the day. The flat is very near the Kensington Olympia station but that is an over ground train only. It’s a good 10-15 minute walk to the bus or underground for transport into city center.
