The flat is very much as described and reviewed. The location is near perfect - a short walk to the Notting Hill Gate station where you can get on multiple lines. Everything is a short trip away. There is a grocer, Boots, bakery, and assorted restaurants/pubs within easy walking distance. I know, because my 78-year old mother was on this trip and could get to these things without getting winded! The flat was clean, clean, clean - thank you Beata - and there was soap, plenty of TP, coffee, towels, etc. We were there when it was nearly 100F - like 98% of flats in London, there is no air conditioning - Nikhil provided much needed fans.
As others have noted, the carpet is old. Not a big deal to us. The beds are comfortable, there is a lovely terrace, the skylights open to let out the hot air, and the lift worked, saving my mother walking up 4 flights of stairs and great for the luggage.
Highly recommend the flat and Nikhil as host.
