If you're looking for a place that is central and cheap and those are your main requirements, this is the place for you. But you get what you pay for and the trade off is a general lack of quality I'm afraid. Some of these things might matter to you, some might not but that's your decision. First, let me say that Peter the host was excellent. Very good and clear communication, quick responses and genuinely helpful. Nothing but good things to say about Peter. The place itself is not really a "whole flat". It is a room in a house with a small kitchenette and bathroom to say it is a studio. It looks like a house from the outside and you come in through a common front door with about 6 or 7 other rooms in the same house. The stairs are very steep and very tight - it's almost a spiral staircase. If, like me, you have two heavy suitcases that is difficult to manage. If you were elderly or had difficulty lifting, it would be impossible. The room itself is pretty tired. The front door is a poor quality "internal" type door, not an external door. The bed linens are old and worn but clean. The bathroom is tiny. I mean - can't bend down in the shower to pick up something off the floor tiny! For some reason, the kitchen sink was filthy - it looked like it was plaster dust or something building related that was caked firmly on it. This was odd as the general cleanliness was otherwise good. There are a few jarring things such as the fact that the sign for the pull light in the bathroom is written in marker pen on the wall! There was a picture that was not hung but was leant against the wall in shrink wrap. There are no toiletries whatsoever - no soap, shampoo etc. That's fine but most places provide them now so you need to be aware and bring your own! As I had work to do in the evening, I needed the table that is in the pictures on the site. That wasn't there but a nice sofa was instead. Maybe some would prefer the sofa but then you need to update the photos so what you see is what you get. On this point Peter was very good and reactive, bringing around a small folding table for me to use. As I said, no complaints at all about Peter. So all in all, this would be a good place to stay if you want cheap, central accommodation that you are just sleeping in. It is literally about 30 seconds from the British Museum. If you want a bit more comfort or convenience you need to look elsewhere and probably pay a bit more. This place is fairly priced for what it is. I don't think you will find much cheaper in the centre of London but unless price is your...
