Guest Reviews

• Shalise (10/5): We loved our stay here! Aw - It was very spacious for our family of 6! Having 2 bathrooms was fantastic! Everything was exceptional except carrying our luggage up the stairs.
• Dorina (7/5): Funktionell, aber hell , modern und freundlich eingerichtete Wohnung in zentraler Lage. - Die Lage ist sehr zentral und perfekt, um die Stadt zu erkunden. Der Vermieter sollte unter Telefonnummern, die er nennt auch erreichbar sein. In unserem Fall war niemand telefonisch erreichbar: Leider hatte man uns zunächst einen falschen Türcode geschickt - telefonisch konnte man niemand zuständigen erreichen, obwohl diese Nummern als Kontakt genannt worden waren. Das war ärgerlich. Nur weil mir dann nur noch die booking.App einfiel, konnten wir das Problem lösen. Über die booking.App antwortete dann jemand.
• Feikje (9/5): Business trip, stay in central location - Spacious and excellent location As in the description, 3 stories up/ 5 flights of stairs which is a lot with luggage
• Anna (7/5): Decent apartment in a great location, lots of stairs. - Spacious 3 bedroom apartment. living room comfortable enough. In a great location. We knew it was 3rd floor but should be made clear that there are 75 stairs up to it and no lift. Luckily everyone with us was fit and healthy and able for the stairs (although it was tough on our marathon runner the day after!)
• Ellis (10/5): - Hele mooie locatie. Fijn appartement met veel licht.
• Alice (9/5): Appartamento ampio e funzionale: 3 camere con letti comodi, 2 bagni con doccia e un’ampia zona giorno con cucina riforni - Struttura in posizione centrale ma tranquilla. Poche stoviglie e padelle.
• Lucy (9/5): - Everything else was perfect Pillows where a bit uncomfy
• Ingrid (8/5): Goed ! - Goede ligging in de stad , goede bedden , alles zoals voorzien op de site. Vlotte toegang tot appartement. Geen geluid van de stad. De 4e verdieping is effe klimmen , je kan je bagage er niet voor of na je verblijf laten. De zetel in de leefruimte is niet zo ruim.
• yehuda (8/5): דירה איכותית למי שאין בעיה עם מדרגות - דירה גדולה,נקיה.מרוהטת היטב ומרווחת מאוד. שלושה חדרי שינה,באחד מהם יש מקלחת ושירותים בנוסף למקלחת ושירותים שיש בפרוזדור כניסה לבנין ולדירה בעזרת קוד וללא מפתח,מאוד פשוט ונוח מיקום מרכזי ליד תחנת רכבת תחתית הדירה ממוקמת בקומה השלישית,ללא מעלית.המדרגות שמובילות עד לדירה מאוד צרות ומפותלות,בנוסף יש מדרגות נוספות בתוך הדירה.

• Ian (8/5): A spacias apartment in a central location. - The apartmemt is very spacias with all the facilities you need. It's like a home away from home in a great part of London, close to underground stations that makes for easy to access all the atractions that London has to offer. Nothing to dislike.
• Susanne (8/5): A great base in London for a small group; cosy and quiet in fantastic location. - A great space that perfect for our group - good sized rooms, spacious lounge/dining area and two bathrooms were ideal. Location is fantastic and lovely peaceful refuge in the heart of London. There were a few signs of wear and tear that needed repair or attention and this would have enhanced the overall feel/look of the accommodation - mirror in the en-suite bathroom not working, blinds in the lounge area/bedroom not able to go up/down fully or broken, pictures not hung properly, en-suite shower would benefit from upgrade and shelf for toiletries.
• Fiona (8/5): A very well-located and equipped flat for a family stay in London. - We travelled as a family of four adults and so the space available in this apartment was perfect. The bedrooms are relatively spacious and the beds and pillows are very comfortable. The kitchen is practical and well-equipped - a family wanting to save money not eating everything out could easily prepare meals here. With easy access to multiple lines across two different tube stations, it is in a great spot to be able to get to and from anywhere in London easily and it is convenient to a supermarket multiple pubs and cafes and a perfect spot for going to see West End shows. It is also deceptively quiet inside the apartment, despite the busy road outside, and being on the top floor there is no need to worry about the noise of anyone walking around in the flat above. The owners were very accommodating with an earlier check-in time. Just a few very minor things that people might want to be aware of in making their choice: The advertisement does make it clear that there are stairs. Take the warning seriously if that is not your thing (we didn't mind), as they are three steep flights and a fourth inside the apartment itself. The advertisement does say there is a dryer but there is a washer only. And we found the heating a little tricky - although that might be because we are not used to that style of radiator heating - but we found it quite hard to regulate at night and were often left too hot.
• Nidia (9/5): The stay was overall wonderful. - The property was very nice, spacious, comfortable and clean. The area is also very nice, close to bus stop, restaurants, yet not very crowded. The only non positive comment I have is the fact that it doesn’t have a lift. We were on the 4th floor, and it was a lot of stairs. Just not convenient for elderly, and when you have luggage.
• julie (10/5): Appartement spacieux, très agréable et très bien situé. -
• Kim (8/5): Central rummelig lejlighed men ikke for gangbesværede - Rummelig lejlighed, meget centralt Ligge på 3 sal med mange smalle trapper
• Andrés (10/5): Gran estadía en Centro de Londres - Nos gustó la ubicación, la limpieza del departamento, muy cómodas las camas, realmente se pudo descansar. La amabilidad de Simona, con extraordinaria disposición para resolver las dudas y acceder a solicitudes. Gracias ! Nada
• Anja (9/5): - Die Lage ist wirklich top. Viel kann man zu Fuß erreichen. Es gibt schöne Lokale und Cafés im Umfeld. Bus und Tube in der Nähe. Die Betten waren sehr bequem. Sehr gut geeignet für Bus zu 6 Personen. Die Einrichtung ist eher lieblos, eine Grundreinigung wäre mal wieder dran. Wasserdruck im Bad eher mau.
• Sérgio (9/5): -
• John (9/5): Wij hebben er een paar fijne dagen gehad. - De locatie was op loopafstand van verschillende bezienswaardigheden! We waren er tijdens een paar warme dagen en dan mis je een airco. Voor ouderen kan het ontbreken van een lift bij de verschillende trappen als je wat hoger zit, lastig zijn.
• László (10/5): Perfect family trip - The location is perfect. We were able to reach any point of the city with max 5 min walk to local transportation hubs. Maybe that there wasn’t a lift, but it was a small price to pay for the perfect location.
• Ricupero (7/5): Very good. Recommend but be mindful of stairs when staying on the top floor - Location was excellent Stair case was a problem when staying on the top floor. Wasn’t that obvious when booking the apartment. No AC which was a little bit uncomfortable.
• Barbara (9/5): Superb -
• Cindy (8/5): Great place that’s central and fits multiple people - Location was central to everything. Close to shops, trains everything The stairs but we were fully aware of the climb. The location made it worthwhile
• Paula (9/5): Superb -
• Chris (5/5): Amazing location but hindered by lumpy pillows and horrible water pressure. - Our trip was hindered by two things 1. The water pressure was horrible! Turning on the shower would only result in a trickle of water coming out of the shower. It’s literally one of two things I rate a hotel on as I want a bed to sleep in and a place to shower. 2. The beds were uncomfortable. More then the beds were the lumpy pillows. The location is amazing. The 75+ stairs to the flat were tolerable.
• Michal (8/5): Very good -
• Gisel (5/5): This is a nice apartment but need to have a deep cleaning. - I like the location The apartment was full of dust, needs to have a deep cleaning. The sofa is so dirty and Stinks and under it is full of dirt from years probably. One of the bathrooms was doing a noise sometimes.
• Kerstin (9/5): It was a wonderful stay. - The location is amazing. One can easily walk to many sights, a bus station and the tube stations Tottenham Court Road and Holborn are very close. The apartment is suitable for six, it’s clean, the beds are comfortable. The staff is really helpful and friendly.
• Drew (10/5): Well-located, spacious flat. - The flat was very comfortable and provided ample space for our group of five adults. The location worked out great. Several tube stops were close by, and it was a short (less than 15 min) walk to Covent Garden, Soho, the West End, and Chinatown. There were lots of choices for restaurants, coffee shops , and pubs in every direction. As others have pointed out and the listing makes clear the flat is a penthouse and requires climbing four flights. This was not a problem for us and provided some additional exercise that we probably needed anyway. The staff was friendly and accommodating and communication was prompt and polite. We hope not too many others discover this spot so that there is availability when we next return.
• Gilis (8/5): Nice stay! - Large appartment, clean, good location The bed in the large chamber was croocked and slatted base did not fit the frame so bed was wonkey. Showers had some mold.
• Jodi (6/5): Poorly equipped, not thoughtfully designed for real use. - Location is great Clearly no one from management has actually used this property or they would surely have identified desperate needs for basic hardware like hooks in the bathrooms for clothing or a shelf for toiletries. There is not enough space to hang bath towels for 6 people let alone counter space for toiletries. Not even hand soap is provided and there is no loo roll/toilet paper holder so the loo roll/TP is just sitting on the trash bin which is so ghetto. The beds are wooden and so squeaky that any movement causes loud creaks making it difficult to sleep. There is no elevator and you have to walk up 4 flights of stairs with all your luggage. I do not recommend this flat and would not stay here again. Very obviously a corporate money grab with zero investment in comfort or usability.
• Anonymous (8/5): Very good -
• Ido (9/5): Great location, the apartment is very convenient with 3 bed rooms and a big living room. -
• Mais (9/5): Great apartment will definitely consider for future visits - Apartment is spacious , nice and equipped, we enjoyed our stay and location is great! The stair is very high, not ideal for luggage and elderly guests
• Sally (8/5): Very good -
• William (8/5): Fantastic apartment in good location. If you have heavy suitcases be mindful there is no lift - Great location. Clean and tidy. Issues with Wifi and up 4 floors
• Eeva-kaisa (7/5): Good - The apartment was spacious and the location was execellent. The check-in professori was effortless. Overall, the apartment was tidy, but there were some minor dust and stains, for example, on the sofa. In the bedroom next to the living room/kitchen, one of the bed legs was damaged. Additionally, one of the legs of corner sofa was also crooked. In the bedroom with its own bathroom, the base on the bed was partially detached. We didn’t receive clear instructions on how to use the safety box, and we would have had to figure it out ourselves someone else. Another drawback was the lack of air conditioning, but we were of this when booking the apartment. There were tuo fans in the apartment, which we believe need upgrading.
• Anita (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic location and a very well equipped apartment. Modern and clean. Perfect Stairs, but we knew that in advance :-)
• Edrica (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was amazing, exactly as the photos shown on Booking.com. It was very clean. The rooms were big.
• Alessandra (10/5): great apartment in a supperb location! - the apartment is great! very well furnished and with everything you need. the location is absolutely perfect, close to a metro station and also walking distance to many areas. only downside are the stairs, so this should be stated. no issue at all for me, but the remainder of my group were seniors and struggled a bit.
• Oleg (8/5): Nice flat in central location, gets the job done - location is great, a lot of space in the flat.
