Loved the bright, sunny apartment. It was comfy and well located with about a 10 minute walk to several tube stations. Also on the weekend you can take the Olympia overground to Shepherds Bush and then more underground options.
The kitchen was well equipped. The bathtub was wonderful to stretch out in!
Sole was delightful and helpful.
In the negative, the construction on Kensington Olympia is really noise. Right now there’s demolition with jackhammers, so not light construction. Just don’t plan on being home during work hours, including Saturday till noon.
The stadium across the street is open for business, so check the events calendar. You will hear the concert, but the traffic on the street in front of the apartment isn’t bad (it’s a little back street). Concerts do end by 10:00.
With that information in mind (and the stairs, which our old bodies didn’t mind at all), it’s a great place to stay.
