The location can't be beat for anyone looking to stay close to Kensington Palace and all of the Museums. A 20-minute stroll through the park will get you to these destinations. This apartment is in a residential area that currently has some construction going on, so you will hear construction work happening between (approximately) 8am-5pm.. The washing machine was not working upon arrival, something I assume will be fixed by the time you read this review! The host is very quick to respond with any questions and the check-in process is very straight-forward.
