I selected this property based on location, as I have spent time in the Kensington/Notting Hill area and find that the tube/buses, shops and sites are the best in London. Once I arrived, the flat blew me away, exceeding all expectations for a holiday "home base." The flat was immaculate, the decor creative, the linens and towels crisp and white, the bathroom spacious. Just the right size for a single traveler or a couple (based on the double - not queen - bed.) I stayed 8 nights and by the 4th night I felt right at home, completely integrated into the neighborhood and the flat. The bedroom was in the back and offered quiet (save for a few minutes of padded feet above me and occasional noise from the construction on the building across the courtyard.) Having a washing machine helped me pack light, and I enjoyed being able to make my own coffee in the morning. I highly recommend this property - but hope my praise does not mean it's booked when I'm ready to visit again!
