Chowee’s place was an oasis in the chaos of London. From A to Z, she has thought of everything that a visitor might need or want - and has gone above and beyond it! And if, for some crazy reason, you are missing something or are in need of something, she is right there to help you out.
Communication and welcome:
we ended up having multiple delays in our travels on the way to her place and ended up getting there around midnight. We were able to communicate the whole time and she was there to meet us and show us how everything worked before we collapsed on the funky and wonderfully comfortable pull-down wall bed.
Among the items of welcome were a cake, breakfast items, fresh fruit, milk, yogurt, butter, bread...
Outfitting and amenities:
There were charging cables all ready for any type of smartphone, speaker, audio sound system, tv, Netflix...(needless to say, that London kept us busy usually until after midnight, so we weren’t able to use the cool extras she has in place at the apartment 😕.)
There is a wonderful, 2 level balcony for brekkies, reading or a glass of something to cap of the night. (And if you’re a plane spotter, there is a good view of the planes flying over London to...?)
The wc and shower are separate, which makes it easy to have 2 people getting ready at once - all the toiletries that you forgot have been thought of by Chowee and are in place for you to use! (You can even chose a lighting to suit your mood!)
The bijou kitchen has everything one needs ( or doesn’t, since we seemed to get home well after meal time,) is a beautiful stainless steel and works perfectly in the space provided.
Furnishings and lighting are fun, comfortable and cool. Everything has a personality to it and a story behind it. Nothing of the beige, monotone decor of an hotel room that you can find anywhere. This is one off and very, wonderfully special!
Owner:
Chowee is warm, welcoming and ready to help out a moments notice. Communication was excellent, information on transportation, things to do around the area and further away was thorough and tips for up to date happenings were very helpful. She is always there to help you with ideas, questions or problems, should they arise.
I know I must have missed some of the other great things about her apartment and herself in my review - her place and what she offers is so well thought out that you forget that you are not at home. I cannot say enough good things about it and our stay there.
Thank you so much Chowee!
