The “Mews” is a lovely and quiet private road with walkable access to the underground and local shops. With 3 bedrooms to host larger groups, a much better choice than standard hotels. Also. be sure your party can walk up 2 steep flights of stairs as not sure that’s clearly mentioned in the ad. (especially with luggage handling).
This was our first experience with Air B&B and overall it went very well. The unusual heat in London was certainly beyond the host’s control but they could have provided additional fans as we were constantly dragging them from upstairs to down and with only 2 fans and 3 bedrooms and windows that were painted shut, sleeping was definitely a challenge.
There’s a lovely balcony upstairs but couldn’t sit out due to the blazing sun - an umbrella or better seating area would have made all the difference. Plenty of empty plant pots stacked in the corners would have been lovely if planted and definitely a missed opportunity to add that extra touch. The surrounding neighbors take great care of the private Mews and courtyard area so the English garden experience was lovely so cheers to them.
As I said, it was our first experience and from the number of reviews listed, somewhat new to this group of hosts. Communication was definitely lacking after reaching out to the Sharon prior to our stay and during... ran into issues with the house and no response still today from them. A bit like you’ve arrived, figure it out. My expectations, or the way I’d run it, is probably different, but don’t take someone’s money ($4,500 for a weeks stay) and then just ignore them. Better communication is definitely something to work on.
