Meghan's place:
Positives:
- Great communication, reception staff were very helpful, very close to Aldgate Station - convenient to get around London, supermarkets are close and apartment was private and quiet. I was able to leave my luggage after check out. Big closet space and the room itself was big and spacious.
Fine for a very short stay in the summer and if you're out an about for most of the time.
Cons:
Room and bathroom was unbelievably hot during our stay, no air flow or ventilation made it very uncomfortable. Window barely opens up, fans didn't do much to alleviate the discomfort. Our lock/key card wasn't working so we had to have reception come up and open the door every time we returned. The pictures of this place are not what you are getting when you arrive which was disappointing - the only similarities were the colour of the curtains, the pictures on the wall, kitchen stove top area and bathroom. The apartment did have a bad smell, bedding didn't fit the bed and pillows couldn't have been flatter.
By far the biggest issue was how uncomfortably hot it was day and night in that room.
