Although we never met Peter, he was a wonderful host who kept in communication with us from booking to departure.
We were a little disappointed on arrival to see a room that looked even smaller than the photos. There are rooms on several levels, so much of this information will be pertinent only to the level 6 apartment.
PROS:
— location can’t be beat - close to Tottenham Court Road underground station, connecting to Northern and Central lines made for easy transport
— kitchen was great to have - fridge, kettle, microwave, even a stovetop, and all crockery, cutlery, etc
— everything was clean and tidy
— the toilet was just outside the room on the staircase landing, making it more convenient than the shower
— while the shower was on ground floor, it was exclusively for our use (we found out that the other apartments all have bathroom facilities in their rooms)
— laundry on site
CONS:
— 6th floor with no elevator and a rickety staircase was hard work, especially with our suitcases
— harder again was the fact that our shower was located on the bottom floor of the building
— toilet not in the room itself - as above, it’s on the staircase landing
— hard to get to the laundry, in that there always seemed to be a load of towels on
All in all, we had a great time (we weren’t in the room much anyway) and would happily stay again in one of the other apartments that had bathroom facilities in room!
