My husband and I, along with our 21 year old daughter, spent a wonderful week in London staying at James and Kate's place. We elected to go the Airbnb route , as hotel rooms in London can be a bit cramped for three, and do not afford much privacy. I am happy to say that we made the right decision, and highly recommend this place for a relaxing and comfortable stay.
Everything was seamless , from check-in to check-out. First of all, the flat is stylishly and tastefully remodeled, but also very much like home. You can tell that James and Kate have put a lot of thought into making it a haven for visitors. It was so nice to come back to the flat each evening after an exhausting day of sightseeing of which we had many. I don't want to sound repetitive in light of all the positive reviews, but certain things stand out in my mind and deserve mentioning:
Clean and modern;
A great informational binder including restaurant tips;
Snacks for the hungry travellers;
Cozy, bright, living room with a comfy sofa and large TV;
Well appointed kitchen with nice appliances--we elected to use for breakfasts and wine/cheese, but could have cooked a full meal;
Charming garden;
Lovely bathroom with a great shower, and the most fabulous towels;
Extremely comfortable beds with high quality linens that we melted into every night;
Proximity to the Tube station--we also used Uber and took Taxis, all were easy to access;
Wonderful neighborhood close to Marylebone High Street and Regents Park;
Tesco just down the street.....
As for the hosts, James was very communicative and responded quickly. I knew he was available if we needed assistance, but at the same time both he and Kate respected our privacy, which was appreciated.
Thank you again James and Kate, and we hope to stay at your place in the future!
