I enjoyed a 2-week stay in this well-decorated, super comfortable, warm, welcoming apartment and found that it offered all I needed (and more). It was the first time in an Airbnb where I didn't have to go out and buy something for the kitchen, i.e. spices, cleaning supplies, etc. The hosts had even thoughtfully left extra welcome goodies. It's the perfect surgical or dental recovery suite if one needs, with a great couch/TV/Streaming area for relaxing/recovering and with a powerful blender to boot! I am fairly sensitive to "too much noise" and I found the apartment very quiet, with typical city street noises outside but not overwhelming at all. The neighbors above can hardly be heard due to thick floors and walls. There was just a little bit of noise each day as the above neighbors came and went from their entrance, nothing awful. If you are extremely sensitive to noise, certain measures could be taken like closing the wood blinds facing the street and closing the very heavy curtains which separate the living room from bedroom area. Just a note: there is a small flight of not-steep stairs so it would not be the best for anyone infirm or troubled by lifting luggage up and down stairs. The shower hot water was plentiful and hot; wifi fast and worked perfectly. Everything in the apartment is thoughtfully done, like the variable lighting, the provision of an espresso machine with plentiful capsules and it features a VERY comfortable bed, VERY soft nice linens. This will be my second home for visits to London; just loved it! I used public transport (bus) mainly and getting into Central London is not always a "zip" from this location (however stylish Chelsea is just a nice walk across a nearby bridge). I was not in a rush on this trip to get anywhere in the center/meetings, etc. so I managed just fine... I enjoyed some great walks in this Battersea/Lavender Hill/ Clapham Junction/Northcote Road area which was new for me; Northcote Road is posh and charming with many nice cafes and restaurants. Battersea Park itself is a delight. One of the most delicious Indian restaurants I've been to in a while is just down the road: Dhaba. This was a wonderful stay and the hosts have curated a great home base in London. Highly recommended!
