My partner and I stayed at Simon's ground floor flat in Notting Hill for 8 nights in February 2020. The flat is very comfortable and more spacious than expected. Despite being a ground floor, there's a lot of daylight. There are workspaces for laptop use, the sofa is large and comfy and the kitchen is fully equipped (kettle, dish-washer, toaster, microwave, etc.). I would recommend turning on the extractor fan at the start of a cooking session as the smoke alarm, thankfully, is quite sensitive ! The spin dryer (separate from the washing machine) is ideal for stays longer than 2-3 days.
The bathroom is atypical, spacious and lovely to use, great shower and bathtub, and Simon left bathroom products for us to use. We didn't get to use the TV with Roku and Netflix this time, but my partner did use the premium-quality yoga mat and we browsed leisurely through the book collection!
The location is unbeatable - the flat is on a quiet, residential street just 5-7 minutes' walk to the tube station and bus stops, and the area is safe, central and lively.
Simon's hospitality was ideal, he left fresh flowers upon arrival, there were condiments in the kitchen we could use, and throughout the stay he was very responsive and took care of all our requests, and we were happy to meet him in person briefly.
A great place to stay for a fantastic holiday in London - would certainly recommend.
