We really enjoyed our stay at Mike's flat. The flat is well located and very close to Royal Oak train station. There are plenty of restaurants and grocery stores within a close 5-minute walk. The flat is quite spacious and accommodated my boyfriend and me comfortably. Mike was helpful and friendly, he responded very quickly as well.
The wifi was high speed but 2 times throughout our month-long stay it completely shut down and we had to restart it. Not the biggest deal, but something to note. It would also have been helpful to know that the flat is on the third floor and there is no elevator. This was only a problem when having to carry up our large luggage. Some of the shelving and drawers are a little broken and could use fixing. Again, not the biggest issue but it would be helpful to have that fixed. The whole flat is in need of a deep clean. Upon our arrival, the flat had not been cleaned but this was not Mike's fault as there was a mixup with the cleaning company. However, because of this, the flat was not cleaned thoroughly enough despite the cleaner showing up around 30 minutes after our arrival.
Overall we had a great stay and would stay here again although we hope it would be cleaner next time.
