I stayed at Daniel’s listing for a little over a month. Daniel was responsive and helpful and was very accommodating with check in, which I appreciated.
The location is really great. It’s close to the Thames and there are lots of bus stops within a couple minute’s walk. It was great to have everything so close by.
While the flat was adequate, there are a few things with the listing and listing description that weren’t great or accurate. Although cutlery is promised, what’s provided was sorely lacking. There were a couple random spoons and knives but not a single fork. The spoons and knives looked quite beaten and battered as well. Additionally, there is not a single pan provided. This makes cooking actual meals quite limited and difficult. There are no kitchen trash bags provided either and the bin provided in the kitchen was tiny. More appropriate for a bathroom than a kitchen. A couple other things - the bathroom had a strange moldly smell in it and the shower is pretty grimey. The couch in the living room is also filthy, which made it unusable. Finally, the blanket on the bed is as thin as a paper and isn’t very comfortable.
It was also crazy loud most days because of constant construction the entire building was undergoing, usually starting at 6 AM and going well into the night. Nothing the host could’ve done to prevent this but it would have been nice to have some sort of warning about this from the host prior to my booking.
While I really appreciated Daniel’s responsiveness as a host, I’m not sure I’d stay here again given some of these issues I came across, especially given the price. This listing might be more appropriate for a short term stay.
