The apartment is a good location, close to public transit. It’s a suitable size for two people and could be a cozy place. It is also excellent value for accommodation in London.
However, when we arrived the place was not properly cleaned. There was dust, crumbs and dirt on the floor and surfaces. The bathmat was disgusting with hair and large crumbs. There was a dirty mop left in the tub. To compound on that, there was no shower curtains, shower water would get all over the floor, making the bathroom a wet pond. As if that wasn’t bad enough, the shower would not remain warm long enough for a shower. Every few minutes it would get ice cold, not enough time to properly shower. There was no hand soap in the bathroom or paper towels in the kitchen.
Generally, the lack of cleanliness extended to the dishes, cutlery, appliances, and the kitchen.
We are not neat freaks, but we felt it was necessary to clean the place right after we arrived from a long flight. Otherwise the place was nice, these issues seriously detracted from our overall stay.
If the issues listed were remedied, I would consider staying there again.
