Kensington is a wonderful neighborhood and a perfect base for any visit to London...as we discovered staying at this terrific flat. Stefania is a gracious host and the flat is comfortably arranged for 4 people.
PROS:
Location. Gloucester Road is just 2 blocks away, with many shops and restaurants...including the wonderful Italian restaurant and pizzeria, Da Mario. The pizzas are heavenly and the pasta just as good! Pastries and coffee everywhere...nice! Tube stop just 5 minute walk.
Quiet and comfortable. No loud neighborhood stuff like some places.
Amenities were adequate for a quick visit. More blankets would have helped, but we managed fine.
CONS:
We had a wifi issue--it just wouldn't work-- and had to buy wifi from another signal nearby. We did not bother Stefania with it as we had already bothered her by locking ourselves out (take GOOD CARE OF THE KEYS!!! ) , but she assured us she would have it fixed...and I'm certain she will.
Better instructions for the microwave and washer/dryer would be very helpful--they are complicated and not easy to understand at all. We finally figured them out after web searches and many attempts.

All in all, this is a safe, comfortable, bright and accessible flat in a great neighborhood and we would love to stay here again. Thank you again, Stefania, and apologies again for the troubles of the lockout!
