Guest Reviews

• Anna Maria (7/5): -
• Lola (9/5): Overall a good experience, nice connections to must see places, very comfortable apartment and fully equipped. only bad - Very well located, easy to find and good connections to underground lines The windows don’t open and after a while you start to feel suffocated, a little bit of opening to air out the apartment would be nice. The bathroom had a bit of smell and poor aeration
• Chrystelle (1/5): Séjour Désastreux - Rien du tout Nous avons passés 2 nuits avec invasion de punaises de lit. J’ai essayée de joindre les propriétaires, personnes ne répondaient. J’ai fait appel au service booking, j’attend leur retour. Nous avons tous été piqués par les punaises. J’ai jeté toutes mes valises, affaires personnelles car tout étaient infectés de punaises. Nous finissons dans un autre hébergement sans vêtement. Je vous recommande de fuir cette location.
• patrick (6/5): Idéalement placé mais manque d’equipemrnt - Emplacement idéal Propreté des draps Pas de torchon,ni de fourchettes ni de cuillères ni de casseroles. Une bouilloire qui ne marchait pas . Aucune communication C’est dommage
• céline (5/5): Bien mais... - L emplacement est top ! L appartement est assez spacieux pour 4 Il est lumineux 3 chaises à se partager pour 4 personnes Les fenêtres ne s'ouvrent pas du tout 1 fourchette pour 4 1 cuillère pour 4 !! J ai envoyé un.message le 1er jour pour demander 1 chaise en.sus et des couverts ... mais pas possible. Idem pas de tapis de douche. C est dommage car gros potentiel mais l attention n y est pas. L emplacement est top mais très bruyant le vendredi et samedi soir ...mais on ne peut pas tout avoir !
• Silvia (7/5): -
• Sandra (5/5): - Ubicación Mal olor , lavabo atascado. Solo tres sillas y éramos 4. Pocos utensilio de cocina.
• Vanessa (9/5): Apartamento muy bien situado - La ubicación es genial, estás a un paso de todo. Quizás el ruido por la noche, pero al ser céntrico era lógico que hubiera ruido.
• christopher (5/5): Great location shame about the apartment - Location Some utensils in the room were missing [ forks] the bathroom smelled really bad , the secondary glazing not working therefore you could here ever noise outside, the sliding sash would not stay up so had wedge plastic bottle to get some fresh air in to let the toilet smell get out.
• Sabas José (7/5): Apartamento esencial y muy bien ubicado - El alojamiento es de tipo Loft se encuentra en la mejor zona del centro de Londres, cerca de todo lo importante y línea de Metro cerca. Tiene Nevera Bar, Un baño por mejorar pero suficiente para el alojamiento, las camas muy cómodas, sábanas limpias, edredones, ventilador calefacción, plancha y mesa para planchar. Un comedor para 4. Tienes acceso WIFI gratuito, supermercados, tiendas y souvenir cerca, todo lo que quieras comer allí mismo. Se escucha todo los vecinos gritar hasta que duerman. Los ruidos de la calle se escuchan mucho hasta la madrugada que bajan, después de 1am. He recomendado insonorizar desde adentro dado que me dijeron que no pueden tocar la fachada por fuera. Dada la comodidad de las camas caes dormido.
• Kevin (7/5): - As it was for two people I was expecting a separate bedroom as I had a female colleague with me, so unfortunately had to book another room locally at the last minute.
• Viviane (10/5): Idéal ! - Emplacement idéal, nous étions à proximité des plus grands centres d’intérêts de Londres ! Pour ceux qui étaient plus loin, le métro est au pied de l’appartement ! Mal insonorisé mais en plein centre il y a beaucoup de bruit c’est logique ! Cela ne nous a pas empêché de dormir !
• Leocobaine (9/5): - La mejor ubicación. A metros de las pantallas de picadilly circus. Tiendas y restaurantes cerca. El lugar está bien. Es amplio para 2 personas y máximo 3. Tiene ascensor y vistas hacia la calle. No había ollas para cocinar (o quizá no las vi) Ya que el lugar tiene cocina y horno debería haber. El secador de pelo no funciona.
• Rahen (1/5): I would like a refund - Nothing, Nothing the bedsheets wasn’t changed and the bathroom was filthy the floor wasn’t swept
• Tamoor (3/5): Great location, average facilities. - The location The facilities. Everything needs to be refurbished from the door lock to the basin tap.

• Inês (5/5): Es war Okey für die wenigen Tage würde aber nicht weiter empfehlen. - Lage war super, direkt beim Picadilly Circus. Check in hat problemlos funktioniert. Lavabo im Badezimmer war verstopft, das Wasser konnte nicht abfliessen. Ich habe extra am Tag der Ankunft das gemeldet, es hiess jemand würde vorbei kommen, was aber nicht der Fall war. Am 2. Tag hat der Lift nicht mehr funktioniert. Auch hier hat sich niemand darum gekümmert. Keine Möglichkeit, das Gepäck nach Check out zu Lagern.
• Martina (5/5): Ottima posizione in zona centrale MA lavandino del bagno decisamente piccolo, inadeguato e otturato. Abbiamo contattato - Ottima posizione in zona centrale lavandino del bagno decisamente piccolo, inadeguato e otturato. Abbiamo contattato la proprietaria per segnalare il problema che non è stato risolto. Le finestre non si potevano aprire, non consentendo il ricircolo d’aria, e una di queste era con il vetro rotto. Si segnala che la casa è stata affittata per quattro persone ma in realtà è sufficiente solo per due/tre persone. Infine, si evidenzia la mancanza di tovagliette in cucina, e di asciugamani.
• Olive (5/5): - it’s near in picadily and leicester Square, near the shops Radiator not working, message the host, but did not do anything!
• Estelle (8/5): Bon emplacement 👌 - Emplacement au top 👍 Équipements parfait pour un séjour. Fenêtre cassée ce qui empêchait une parfaite insonorisation. De plus, il manquait le sèche cheveux qui était indiqué dans les équipements.
• Giacomina (8/5): - Great, central location The toilet barely flushed, there was a mouse in the room, the carpet in the hallway had patches of bleach and stains all over it, the windows didn’t open, the pillows were ultra thin and the fold out bed was particularly hard.
• Čorbová (7/5): -
• pierluigi (9/5): -
• Rosalene (8/5): - Location Tv didn't work
• Joanne (8/5): Great value for money -
• rachel (10/5): Nice apartment in a great location - Great Host - The location was amazing, we had four theatres facing us and China town literally around the corner. The apartment was very comfortable and clean. The host was amazing, kept in regular contact and helped with any queries immediately - brilliant We took our own towels - but there were a good supply of soft towels and extra bedding if needed There was nothing we didnt like - it just would of been an added bonus to have an oven, although there was a microwave so that was very handy The windows were incredibly difficult to open, and with the hot weather recently we did suffer a little. However the host had a fan delivered and this helped so much
• Francesca (5/5): -
• Wojczyk (1/5): Nie polecam . - Jedynym plusem była lokalizacja W mieszkaniu duszno jak w piekarniku przy 4 osobach nie było czym oddychać . Nie było możliwości otworzenia okna!!!!!!!!!!!! Można się było udusić . W łazience grzyb i smród. W zmywarce smród i brud .
• xavier (8/5): -
• Maria (9/5): - Ubicación excelente. Esta en el centro al lado de Chinatown. Puedes ir caminando a todos lados o en metro. Tienes todo lo necesario para cocinar. Nuestra estancia fue genial!! Lo recomendamos. Volveremos
• leonita (7/5): -
• Parisa (6/5): Good budget accommodation for those who don't spend much time in the room. - Great location near theatres, underground and sights. Without a/c or good ventilation, the room was stuffy. There was a fan (in poor condition, barely standing) that helped move air a bit. The shelf above the sink made the sink difficult to use. Decent shower though.
• Stephanie (6/5): Pleasant - The location was ideal. Close to the underground and a lot of sightseeing spots. The room was spacious and has every amenities. Even on weekdays, there was a lot of noise from the streets during the night The bed broke, and there could have been more pillows and blankets
• Youcef (8/5): Amazing place to stay in London 😍 - The location is unique, the flat is nearby Piccadilly Circus, located in the heart of London, the studio was so clean, we found at least 4 towels, you can even cook, you can work from there for remote ppl, hard to find a negative things to say about this apartment, I have been visiting London for the last 10 years and this place is by far one of the best Well, we were with a baby of 9 months so sometimes the elevator blocks, which is annoying. The noise during the night because of all the bars nearby.
• Paula (8/5): Bargain - The location was great. The apartment has everything we needed. So cheap for the 3 of us to stay in central London for the night. Bargain. If you see reviews regarding noise but still book, brin g ear plugs or stay somewhere else I say. 👍 Lots of other reviews did mention the heat inside the apartment & the noise. It could do with a fan. Although it was noisy for most of the night, it is expected in such a central location. Other reviews note a small bathroom (it was fine, although a little In need of a touch up in places).
• Paul (6/5): Lovely and clean and kept informed by the owners of the establishment - Perfect for a 2 night stay as we were booked to see Oliver the musical which was directly across the road The noise of cars beeping and tuk tuks with extremely loud music playing through the night, double glazing would be better if not triple glazing
• Sue (8/5): Family trip to London, it was a bit noisy in the night - Central location and the kitchen facilities Good for the price
• Ninka (1/5): Disgusting. - The only thing good about this property is the central location. When we arrived the bed was broken and the toilet blocked. We messaged the contact straight away and they assured us that maintenance would come and fix. The sash windows did not work and in the apartment was hot and stuffy. The lift is so dodgy and works intermittently. We stayed 4 nights and every day we were promised that someone would fix the toilet and it never happened. We had to go and use a public toilet. This place does not look like the photos in the advert and is a health hazard. Do not book this property.
• Kam (8/5): Very good - Bathroom too small.
• David (1/5): TERRIBLE - Nothing We were moved to another property in Knightsbridge an hour before arrival so did not stay in this one. It was miles away from where we wanted to be but we had no choice. The alternative was dirty, falling apart, had streetlamps shining through windows all night, was cluttered with things in the cupboards, and had a scalding shower we burned ourselves on. We requested and refund which was declined with no reason given. So terrible service not just from the flat owner but also Booking.com,
• Kerrie (8/5): Very good - Location was perfect. Bed was so comfortable! Even tried to look where the duvet covers were from so I could buy for my bed. I couldn't get the window to close fully so the room was quite cold and loud. But it wasn't a huge issue!
• Yasemin (5/5): Passable - Location was good. Just in the center. You can walk to oxford street or leicester square quickly. No coffee machine. The house wasn't clean. The sheets were dirty. The bathroom was really old. And it had a lot of ventilation noise.
• Adrienn (2/5): Disappointed - The apartment has great location, you can find everything nearby. There is an elevator in the building, if it is working... We traveled as a family, we booked the accommodation for 4 people, however, it was equipped only for two people. I pointed out the problem to the host, to which their answer was that we should open the sofa and find the bed linen in the wardrobe... However, there was only a single sheet in the wardrobe that we couldn't use for the double sofa, I also pointed this out, but there was no reply. At first they seemed helpful, they responded quickly. But when we expressed our displeasure, they immediately disappeared and did not give us any help! Furthermore, one of the windows could not be closed, so the room was very noisy. In the description it is said, that the apartment has an oven, but there was none at all, and there were only two very small dishes in total. You can't do much with these, we would have expected more in an apartment...
• David (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mohamed (10/5): Exceptional -
• Batu (7/5): Great place for those who prefers to be at walking distance to the must-see places in London! - Most convenient location that I have ever experienced in a big city like London! Great convenience of the location matters much more to me than some minör issues inside the apartment.
• Tajinder (10/5): Exceptional -
• Melanie (10/5): Perfect! Everything has been thought about by the hosts. - It was so central and felt so homely. Nothing
• Ashlea (8/5): Ideal location and a comfortable stay - Property was clean and tidy and in an ideal location for our stay. Checking in and out was easy and completed mostly through WhatsApp. The property itself was relatively quiet - but as with most places in this area - there was a lot of outside noise which can’t be helped. There was also a smell of drains in the bathroom - but again I think that is likely down to the area.
