Guest Reviews
- Shelley (8/5): Nice flat, fantastic location, would stay again. - We had a lovely stay at the property. We loved the fact it felt very secure and was well equipped. Had a slight issue with entering the property, but soon figured it out, although Elod was very swift in replying to me.
We solved the fact there was only one key by placing it back in the key safe everytime we left so everyone in our party had access to it. As there was 4 of us, 2 were on the sofa bed. Unfortunately this was dirty and slightly broken. Despite this, we would return again as everything else was fine!
There also wasn’t a tea towel - no biggie, but had to use a hand towel to dry up.
- Ahmed (9/5): - Overall, the flat exceeded my expectation, it had everything needed even for small details like spices, salt, detergent, etc.. It was better than staying in hotel room.
The host was super responsive whenever i had a question.
I strongly recommend it.
- Carlo (9/5): Wow - Tutto eccellente, proprietario molto cortese. Posizione strategica, a pochi minuti dalla DLR. E dintorni magnifici sia di qua che di là del Tamigi Qualche rumore dai vicini, ma niente di esagerato
- Javier (8/5): - La cama y el barrio Algunas instalaciones algo deterioradas y mejorar un poco limpieza
- Noelia (9/5): - Das Appartement hat alles was man für einen Städtetrip braucht. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
- Helene (10/5): - The appartment is in a residential area of London, with good public transport. The apartment is fully equipped with everything you might need, kitchen items, toiletries etc. A bit tricky when you are a group of 4 and have only one key to open the gates downstairs. There is an intercom just needed to figure out how to use it :).
- Philipp Gallacchi (8/5): -
- Judith (10/5): Exceptional - Nice place, good location, nice staff.
- Ankur (8/5): Pleasant Stay - The apartment was good and quite spacious. I was provided with fresh towels, water bottles and the host was easily approachable. Very simple check in process. Near to station The location seemed a bit isolated and it was quite silent which wasn't my vibe. Please have a spare standing fan as it was really warm and paper towels in the kitchen. The microwave wasn't working as well.
- Swapnil (10/5): Exceptional - Property was good size and had all the amenities that were mentioned and required. Prompt responses were received for queries.
- Gianluca (1/5): Never again - The Tv screen is large, Wifi works well The front door lock is faulty. The handle fell down and could not leave the flat. The owner was quick in accusing me of having broken the handle while he was obviously aware of the issue (he quickly reassembled it instead of replacing it - it may happen again).
The flat is not clean, you can feel the carpet and stuffy air.
The ice in the fridge shows lack of basic maintenance.
Communication from the host has been abrupt and untimely.
- Ediri (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nebojša (10/5): Wonderful experience and great host, great place to stay! Full recommendation. - Clean, good public transport connections, quiet neighbourhood, looked exactly as on the pictures and many appliances and commodities in the apartment. There was no complaints.
- Franca (7/5): Overnight stay before the Marathon. Well priced for London - Convenient and comfortable
- David (8/5): Good value and excellent host - It’s a great little flat and in a good location . The host was incredibly responsive when things weren’t right. . There were teething problems . There was ironing board nor microwave which were apparently taken by the last guests but the host rectified these within a couple of days . But it did mean I couldn’t iron for work for the first two days .
- Colleen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sebastjan (7/5): It could be better - Nice, comfortable apartment with all the facilities and equipment we needed, although we missed microwave. Peaceful neighbourhood. Terrible smell of cigarettes, broken sofa bed - not possible to make bed from it, sofa bed was not vacuumed for some time, broken dishwasher door, smelly pillows
- Jamaal (1/5): Bad - The owner mentioned a policy about age after i paid for the booking and refused to cancel my booking and refunds. Booking customer service even asked the owner to cancel the booking and waive the fee and the owners refused to reply to customer service or me when i had informed them that customer service had got in contact with them
- Tanjona (10/5): Beautiful - I had a wonderful stay in this apartment – it’s super cozy and welcoming! It has everything you could possibly need: towels, shampoo, body wash, a hairdryer, and all the essentials for a comfortable stay! The neighborhood is incredibly peaceful, one of my favorite areas in London, and the apartment is well-connected by public transport, making getting around very easy.
The owner was absolutely lovely, kind and open towards our requests. so grateful for the hospitality the key box is a bit tricky to open, so it requires a bit of strength. Also, it would have been nice to have a larger frying pan, but it didn’t affect my stay at all
- Marie (7/5): Good -
- Donal (7/5): Good - The apartment itself was lovely! Check-in was easy enough, I had to contact Elod after a bit of confusion on my end about where exactly the apartment was but once I knew where to go it was very straightforward. Apartment was nice, nice bathroom, comfy bed and a good location for where I was working. Thanks Elod Only issue I had, when I made the booking it was stated that the property had a washing machine which was great because I needed to wash clothes for work the next day. However upon arrival I discovered that the washing machine wasn't working, which was quite disappointing. I will say that Elod offered £15 to use the dry cleaners near the apartment which was very kind. I was just disappointed that the washing facilities in the apartment were not in use as this played a large part in why I booked the property
- Antonio (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent accommodations, the host went above and beyond to stock it with essentials and equipment, Would book again in a heartbeat.
- Darryl (10/5): Exceptional - I don't normally write reviews, but this place exceeded all of my expectations. It was a lovely, clean, nicely decorated apartment which was tucked away so it was very nice and quiet. The room was the perfect temperature and all amenities were available. Couldn't find an ironing board but managed to make do.
- Julia (7/5): Good - The apartment was comfortable, and had everything we needed. It is located in a nice neighborhood. The host was able to let us check-in a bit earlier, and showed flexibility. The apartment wasn’t very clean, but it wasn’t terrible. The host could improve communication, especially before check-in/check-out, providing better instructions, and also by replying to the messages that are sent to him in good time, not after a long period.
- Nam (9/5): Superb -
- Femi (10/5): It’s was awesome, would refer to my friends and family - O lovely None
- Clare (10/5): Exceptional -
