Guest Reviews

• Maarja (8/5): -
• Sabrina (4/5): - Location was OK, next to buses and metro It was very noisy, the window blinds were extremely light, the bathroom had a strong sewer smell
• Milena (5/5): Muy caro para lo que ofrece - La ubicación del departamento es muy buena y eso hizo que nuestra estadía fuera cómoda para movernos y conocer la ciudad. Otra cosa buena fue que teníamos un número para conversar con alguien que nos ayudara con nuestros inconvenientes y contestaba rápido, no asi desde booking. Como puntos negativos, durante toda la semana hubo bastante olor a cloacas en el departamento. Además, nos dejaron solo un rollo de papel higiénico para toda la estadía, lo cual resultó insuficiente. En la publicación figuraba que incluían artículos de baño, pero únicamente había jabón; no había shampoo ni acondicionador. La cama también nos resultó un poco incómoda. En la cocina había muy pocas cosas básicas: solo un par de sobres de sal y azúcar para una semana completa, y no había aceite ni otros elementos útiles para cocinar. Por último, tuvimos varios inconvenientes con el secador de pelo: tuvieron que cambiárnoslo tres veces hasta que finalmente nos dieron uno que funcionaba correctamente.
• Anita (5/5): Logement bien situé, mais confort médiocre. - La situation géographique de l’appartement, proche de la gare et environnement calme. Lits pas confortables (matelas à ressorts usés), pas d’eau chaude à l’évier de la cuisine, ni au lavabo de la salle de bain. 1 seule chaise pour déjeuner à 2. La plaque électrique ne fonctionnait pas à notre arrivée, nécessitant de demander à l’hôte d’intervenir, pas de réponses à certains messages envoyés avant notre séjour .
• Moreno (10/5): Perfecta para lo que la necesite - Bastante bien, muy cómodo y bastante completo.. recomendable ya que está muy cerca del tren y guaguas.
• Char (8/5): Comfortable sleep. - Bed was comfortable, ideal location. There was a bad smell from the bathroom that lingered in the room, it wasn’t very pleasant. The pictures didn’t really match the property room.
• Laura (8/5): Agradable - Es pequeño pero comodo para una o dos personas que vayan a hacer turismo unos dias. Esta cerca de la estacion de metro y no se tarda nada en llegar al centro. El que nos toco tenia terraza y se agradecia. A veces la ducha no tragaba y no habia alfombrilla para los pies. Solo ponen una toalla de cuerpo para cada persona.
• Salma (7/5): No estaba tan mal - La chica muy maja y atenta. Buena calefacción y luminosa. Tenía una cocina equipada, calentador, plancha de ropa. Estaba cerca de la estación azul oscuro de metro, que nos conectaba con los museos y centro, a demás del estadio del arsenal. No era un apartamento, es más una habitación. La habitación es bastante pequeña, la puerta del baño se atascaba. Las baldosas estaban rotas y una de las camas también. No había esponja para lavar platos y la moqueta olía muy mal.
• Amanda (1/5): Stressful - I didn’t stay to like something There’s a really bad smell all over the place
• Paul (1/5): Disgusting - nothing everything
• Miguel (3/5): -
• nerea (7/5): Correcto - Fácil acceso al centro con la línea picadilly y buses Tardaron en mandarme el código de acceso ( más tarde hora del check in)
• Rose (8/5): It was good but just some people are a bit loud - It was very far from the station, and a next thing is, there’s not much lighting
• Jana (7/5): -
• kayleigh (8/5): -
• Marine (10/5): c'était un très bon séjour - C'était très simple, etant française, la porte s'ouvrait différement mais l'hôte s'est montré disponible et à l'écoute ce qui nous a grandement aidé
• David (6/5): Ok. - Location. The shower broke, no sofa to sit down.
• Pilar (8/5): - La ubicación de 10.
• Manish (3/5): Better to stay in a professional managed service apartment with Lift then considering this property. - at 5 min distance from bus station and near to king cross station and main station. Room size were small and no space for walking. Kitchen was not fully equipped with utensils. floorings were en-even and carpets seems to be very dated. Host was good in prompt response. but property definitely requires refurbishments completely. Some kind of smell use to come from the property. This property should be last in the option until and unless no property is available on rent. this property did not had lift which was mentioned earlier but if you are travelling with luggage should not consider this option
• Claudia (10/5): It was a wonderful stay and will definitely come again when i visit London. - It is a small studio flat but it has everything you may need. Check in was very easy. Area a bit dodgy especially when you return at night. However we never had any issues.
• Thanasis (5/5): -
• Océane (9/5): -
• Yuling (1/5): 极差 - Self contained studio 警报24小时响个不停，我虽然在楼上房间但也能听到，房东一直在说会关但实际上一直在响。窗户有一条缝，窗外的车辆很吵。屋外有机器发出低频噪音，加上冰箱一直在响，吵得人头痛，完全没办法呆，期间和房东沟通了几个小时处理冰箱还是没用，我只在那里呆了几个小时就换去别的酒店了。明明房子有问题，又没办法换另一间房，我付的五百多镑房东却一点都不退。以上很多问题比如说噪音和警报在评价里多人提及，但是房东并没有做什么，还说“十年内从来没人提过”。非常不推荐。
• Shayan Mari (4/5): - Cambio de habitación de un día para otro, dando opción a devolver el dinero el mismo día si no iba bien, lo cual era impensable al no encontrar nada por el precio para el mismo día, haciendo que tengas que aceptar el trato
• Anabela (5/5): - Da localização. Metro (Picadilly line) a 10 min e perto dos autocarros. Quarto pequeno, aquecimento exagerado e sem possibilidade de regular. A existência de um alarme 24h/7d
• Ada (5/5): - El nuevo alojamiento estaba cerca de candem. Me cambiaron de alojamiento en el mismo momento que cogí el avión a Londres. Cambiando así de localización. No nos quedaba otra porque buscar un alojamiento en el mismo día era imposible. Supongo que la calidad la misma. A ver solo vas a estar ahí para dormir, pero si el colchón es tan malo que te clavas los muelles en el cuerpo… Pues bueno… nosotros así lo utilizamos porque éramos turistas. El alojamiento es pequeño pero tampoco queríamos mucho más grande para lo que estábamos.
• Raúl Fernando (10/5): -
• Everything_Kid (5/5): - Room was okay Internet connection was extremely poor and neighborhood is a bit dodgy.
• Lewis (6/5): Cheap and cheerful. - It was clean, it was cheap, it was somewhere safe to lay my head There is a beeping noise coming from the alarm panel at the entrance. Would not stop all night and prevented me from sleeping. There are trucks turning and loading outside of the window all night and all day too.
• Clara-Elly (5/5): - Saubere Handtücher und Bettlacken und Lage, verschiedene Busse und die Piccadilly Line Caledonian Road gut erreichbar Sauberkeit der Küche ins besondere des Kühlschranks und des Badezimmer, Lautstärke des Nachbarunternehmens zT ab 5 Uhr morgens durch die einglasigen Fenster
• Ruth (7/5): Comfy London Stay - Very helpful and lovely people comfortable beds A few maintenance issues in the studios but didn't make our stay any less comfortable
• FRANCISCO (8/5): -
• Sala (8/5): - Was a small apartment so have everything we needed and it was a decent area too. Close to the underground. Big fridge which would be great for all your food. The shower was also good. Nothing to do with the owners but people also staying there ringing our buzzer and banging the door at 5 am waking us up want fun. Other than that it was great!
• Steven (7/5): Good -
• Jose (5/5): Passable - The value of money Can hear people talking from other rooms,
• Butler (8/5): Very good -
• Reiss (9/5): Superb -
• Matyáš (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ali (7/5): Good - The room has a private bath and kitchenette with a fridge, microwave and kettle. The wifi is not usable or strong enough for a proper connection.
• Steven (6/5): fine - Good value. Clean & comfortable. lorries out outside leaving engines running oveer night.
• Larry (4/5): Not great - The apartment is in a block of several apartments. The photos on the site did not match the apartment that we were given. They obviously chose the best apartment for the photos... Ours was basically one small ensuite bedroom. The single bed was a futon on the floor at the foot of the double bed. The first night no bedding was provided for the futon.
• Ndilu (3/5): Please improve hygiene - The facilities The hygiene was not good the floor was dirty bath tub was dirty and the entrance was not good one either because it stank and being upstairs whilst the pub was downstairs so it was noisy whilst we were trying to sleep
• Chiara (2/5): Very poor - The bed and the pillows The neighborhood, the bathroom, the kitchen, the building, the price, the moquette...
• Ruth (4/5): Very disappointing. - The location is good! Close to the tube. It smelled very bad, with Mould on the walls and the fridge was leaking. Photos are not as it was advertised! Wardrobe was falling apart.
• Nizam (9/5): Superb -
• Matt (10/5): Exceptional - Close to where I needed to be easy to get to Nothing
• Thilanka (10/5): Exceptional - Kitchen and bathroom very good Coffee tea and sugar not available
• Aimee (1/5): Awful. Wouldn't stay again and would urge others to avoid. - Not a great deal to be honest Any of it. It was not like the photos AT ALL! it was really dirty like it had been sat there for months un checked. The bed was old and you could feel all the springs. There was inadequate kitchen facilities. The kitchen area was tiny. We ended uo eating out as we couldn't really cook. There was dirt all up the radiators. The lighting was so dim we couldn't really see of an evening. The floor was dirty. If we could have, we'd have left after the first night. I would not recommend.
• Alison (5/5): Passable -
• Alsaka (5/5): Passable - Its clean and good location Not as comfortable the bed is not comfortable at all.
• Dominiek (3/5): Poor - location, walking distance from Kings Cross Too much noise from foodcariers all night long till the morning. Poor acoustic shelter from windows
• Saalihah (7/5): Good - Very nosy outside the hotel. A lot of construction works
• Natasha (7/5): Overall had a good night sleep and felt somewhat rested, just think the building overall needs work. - Room had good space, and was initially quite warm, bed was extremely comfortable and enjoyed the use of an en-suite, as we like some form of privacy. Happy to be on a first floor and not a ground floor, all doors locked fantastically so I felt secure. The carpet and windows had some staining, unfortunately I had a problem getting the shower to the correct temperature, although my partner did figure this out. No fault of the hosts but afraid I was awoke early due to the building work outside the building. Toilet also had the flush button itself missing, was simply the plastic to push.
• Špela (5/5): Passable -
• Ia (3/5): Poor -
• Valroy (7/5): Good -
• Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional - everything was super clean and the room came with everything already ready for my stay.
• Cathy (1/5): Location and room inferior - There was nothing about this place/building that we liked It was not clean.. no where near what was advertised as well as and not at all what we saw on line. But they did refund us our money as we stayed one out of five nights.
• Maria (5/5): Passable -
• Helena (7/5): Good - The apartment was cosy. The kitchen was well-equipped. The bed was comfortable. The internet connection was stable. The shower was clogged. The lighting was scarce. Some kitchen items were not really clean. The blind was a bit broken. It would have been nice to have a more secure lock at the apartment door. There was neither a plug adapter nor information on where to get one nearby (all the closest hardware stores didn't have any).
• Paloma (9/5): Superb -
• Jochem (5/5): Passable - there was only one bed instead of two. furthermore there was a lot of outside noise.
