Guest Reviews

• Vai (10/5): Emplacement super, cadre au top ! merci ! - L'emplacement est idéal ! Proche de pas mal de choses à pied, relativement calme quand on sait que c'est juste à cîté de la route et dans le doute, l'hôte offre des bouchons d'oreille. Le cadre est beau et joliment décoré, c'est agréable et bien aménagé, j'ai beaucoup aimé, merci beaucoup ! Petit bémol pour la douche qui est un peu petite, mais franchement, je pinaille. Tout était top !
• Robbie (9/5): Super host and location, recommended! - The host was excellent with communication and very polite and helpful. The location is superb being close to both Chancery Lane and Farringdon stations, also lots of nice coffee shops, bakeries and food nearby. Would stay again for sure! Property is small and yes as others have said the shared entrance and stairwell is unpleasant, the flat itself however is very clean.
• Radek (8/5): Good location. Great communication. -
• Peter (8/5): Convenient and comfortable stay. - Comfortable apartment with adequate space and facilities. Good location for business in the Chancery Lane area. Easy walking distance from Chancery Land and Farringdon tube stations and hence to Heathrow. Many pubs in the area serving good food. Close to Co-op supermarket which stocks all the essentials. The apartment itself was spotlessly clean. However, the entrance and stairwell were not.
• Igor (8/5): - Location is nice. Apartment is clean. Beds are comfortable. No fresh air in the bedroom, even with open windows. AC would be helpful during hot summer.
• Agustin (10/5): -
• rowena (6/5): After the initial shock, the flat was a pleasant surprise, but I dont think I would return - Location excellent, and the cost very good for the location. The flat was pleasantly furnished, and the bed comfortable The entrance hall and stairway was in very poor decorative order. I was tempted to turn and run! Filthy poor quality carpet - I found a cigarette butt and many stains on the carpet. In the bathroom, if you want people not to flush paper away you need to provide a lined bin which sits next to the loo (the existing bin is as far away as it could possibly be and wall-hung!) I think a proper chair (not the folding one) is needed for anyone needing to work. A slightly bigger table would help too.
• Diane (9/5): Clean. Bright. Excellent location to explore London - Ideally located! Bus stop and COOP grocery store two minutes walk away. Post office two minutes the other way along with under ground entrances! We found the buses so perfect. #38 bus took us in and out of the theatre district. Kitchen appeared bigger in the pictures however It was compact and perfect for our needs. We explored London all day, and spent the evening relaxing here after. Nice to relax and watch a movie. TV located in the main bedroom. The pull out bed in the kitchen area was comfortable. Linens all nice and clean. Great cross breeze from bedroom window and kitchen window open. Two fans which was nice as it was a sunny hot weekend! Be mindful if you struggle with lots of stairs and /or have heavy luggage. We managed however my Mum is elderly. We knew before we stayed that stairs were part of what to expect. Basic amenities were there: s&P, sugar, tea bags. There is a freezer-but no ice cube tray! Would recommend for a couple. A family with perhaps two smaller children/sharing a bed. Two friends-as there are essentially ‘two bedrooms’ I’d say the stairs were a bit of a challenge. But that’s more because of one guest being elderly.
• Anna (9/5): Superb -
• Dinija (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alice (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, well connected with buses and metro to the other parts of London. The apartment is new, well designed and comfortable, the second bed (the couch) was really comfortable. The bathroom is clean and with complimentary shampoo and conditioner in the shower. The kitchen is small but useful for a few days stay. Maybe a copy of the keys could be useful, especially for three travellers, as once we split up we had only one copy.
• Jamie (7/5): Good -
• Lucy (7/5): Very efficient at emailing instructions to collect keys and requesting a very high security deposit. Not so efficient at - Location was fine and was quiet Wasn’t aware it was a 2nd floor flat with no lift till after booking. The staircase was very narrow and steep and the entrance looked like a student flat
• Rod (9/5): A pleasant day in a clean, comfortable and well located flat. - It is in a great location and only a few minutes walk from the nearest tube at Chancery Lane. The property was very clean and comfortable. Communication from the host was excellent. Access to the lockbox was clear and easy. The bed was particularly comfortable. The apartment could be enhanced by the inclusion of a TV in either the lounge or bedroom, although I read my book, so it was perfectly manageable!
• Hilel (10/5): Great location for a 5 day stay in London. - the kitchen was great and had some left over coffee and tea and there is a 24 hour mnimarket 3 minutes from the place..The shower was very nice. good location close to Chancery lane metro and buse lines just 3 minutes around the corner.
• Lucy (10/5): It was excellent very happy - Excellent property I’d definitely stay again just wish it had a little tv in that would of been great 👍🏼 Code being around the corner would be better right by the door when arriving very late and it was dark.
• Nicole (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional -
• Claudia (8/5): Very good -
• Leila (8/5): we had a great time in London but we won’t be staying at that property - it has a great location. the owner kept the communication smooth and kept on checking that everything was ok and that we did not need anything so this is very good 😊 it has everything we need so this is really good as well The pictures don’t reflect the reality of the place which was much smaller and not as beautiful as we expected. the bed and sofa bed are not comfortable but ok for a couple of nights . it should be repainted and refurbished at some point. it was expensive for what it was but then again London is expensive and we paid to be well located 😉
• Ladyen (9/5): Superb - Close to everything...very clean
• Jon (9/5): Superb -
• Anonymous (8/5): Very good -
• Mateo (10/5): Beautiful 1 bedroom flat with a separate living room - This is a little gem that’s hard to find in London these days! Beautiful 1 bedroom flat with a separate living room with a sofa bed that sleeps for 2, so if you are with colleague / friends it is perfect since you’ll have your separate rooms. love the nice little touches such as the hammock and the coffee machine. Would definitely come back!
