In summary:
-Great place to stay
-Would come again

Positives:
-Location second to none; very close to shops, Notting Hill Gate Station, Hyde Park and many tourist attractions. This is why we picked it.

-All-in-one washing machine and dryer in your apartment
-Helpful little things like coat hangers, bottles of spring water, a heated clothes horse
-Effective heaters
-Apartment in good condition, well cleaned on our arrival
Negatives:
-Our apartment was on the first floor up a spiral staircase, a bit tricky with our heavy suitcases but would be no problem for lighter (or stronger) travellers

-Apartment a bit dated but no impediment to function
