As a family of 4 we stayed here for 9 days in Sept 2017. The first surprise was the noise level. There is only double glazing of a sort in one of the bedrooms, other rooms in the house have not only no double glazing, but some of the windows are not able to be absolutely closed. The flat is on a very busy road, opposite a busy pub. Ambulance and police sirens, barking dogs and general traffic (a lot of honking) and pub noise is prevelant.
3 days before we arrived, a large shipment of furniture arrived. This has been stacked in every room of the flat, taking away any feeling of roominess. The bed bases have been replaced by wooden sideboards. There are large pottery vases and boxes stacked everywhere. The kitchen cupboards were stacked up leaving no room for food storage when we stayed.
There is NO couch in this flat. Only a dining table with 4 wooden chairs, so nowhere to relax. After a day out sightseeing in London you just want to crash out on a couch. A wooden chair doesn't cut it and the cushions on the bay window are just for show, not suitable to sit on.
(I suspect there was a couch but it was moved to accomodate all of the additional stacked furniture).
There are a few other nuisances, but the noise, no couch and copious amounts of stacked up furniture were really disappointing.
On the positive side, the flat is incredibly close to the tube, just a 2 minute walk. Also, there is a Tescos literally below and just along from the flat, very convenient (however the delivery truck at 7am adds to the cocophany of noise in the morning, as the cars honk constantly at the truck).
Chaco is a lovely man, very social and personable. He will happily head out for a coffee with you, or a pint.
Would I recommend this flat? Not unless you are a very heavy sleeper who isn't concerned with noise, and is comfortable with only a wooden dining chair to sit on. Certainly for us it was not a comfortable stay.
