Guest Reviews

• Jenny (10/5): - Sehr schöne Wohnung, super zu erreichen. Die U-Bahn direkt vor der Tür. Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter war sehr nett und unkompliziert.
• Carla (8/5): Comfortable and spacious - Spacious and comfortable. Great location for our visit. Booking. Com
• Laura (8/5): Ein sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt. - Perfekte Lage für unsere Bedürfnisse. Wohnung mit schöner Aussicht und sehr geräumig. Insgesamt ein sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt.
• Els (8/5): - Locatie + ruim appartement Bedden
• Kristina (6/5): Sauber, aber zu laut und renovierungsbedürftig - Dringend renovierungsbedürftig. Fenster in einem Schlafzimmer ließ sich nicht schließen. Beide Schlafzimmer liegen an der Hauptstraße, haben keine Isolierfenster, sind zu laut zum schlafen. Jalousien im Wohnzimmer defekt.
• Rhi (8/5): -
• Susan & Julian (9/5): I have and will continue to recommended the flat to family and friends. That way we heard about it. - The location, the view, the spaciousness. The manager/cleaner was helpful and responded quickly.
• Serge (7/5): Appartement bien situé pour son accès au transport pour un court séjour - Lieu très avantageux pour le transport car situé près d’une station d'autobus et de métro. Aussi un côté de l’appartement donne directement sur la Tamise et le débarcadère ST-George. Instruction pour l’utilisation du téléviseur.
• Catharine Ann (6/5): Spacious flat, in a great location that is in serious need of major TLC - We were two couples who stayed here for six nights while visiting London. There is no building manager but we communicated with the host via WhatsApp. Response time was quick and detailed instructions along with pictures were provided, although I found it odd that we had to look in the garden, under a rock to find the keys. Be advised that anyone with mobility issues may find it difficult to negotiate the steep flight of stairs to reach the main entrance of the building. The apartment was very spacious, with two full bedrooms and bathrooms as advertised. There was an additional toilet in the laundry room. The location of the apartment is ideal, close to an Uber boat, Bus 87 and the tube. There is a food market near the bus station and a well-stocked convenience store just around the corner. Reality did not match the pictures posted. Once I got over the shock and disappointment of the state of the apartment, I reviewed some of the previous reviews. Clearly, the maintenance of the apartment and cleaning standards have been neglected for some time. The furniture in the living room was worn, and no matter how many times we cleaned the dining room table, it remained sticky. The blinds throughout the apartment were a mess and could use a good cleaning. The balcony door to one of the bedrooms was misaligned and would not close properly. We could not sleep one evening as the wind whistle through the gap. The window in the master bedroom would not close properly thus our friends could not get a decent night sleep due to the early morning street noise. In all fairness, I raised these latter two issues with the host who responded that he would get someone to come over to look at it, but we felt uncomfortable having someone in the apartment while we were not there. Midway through our stay, a panel from the bedroom wardrobe fell off, narrowly missing our friend who was walking by. Thankfully, no one was injured. When we examine the panel, it was clear that it had been repaired in the past. The beds in the bedrooms were past their prime and either should be replaced or a foam covering provided as the springs dug into our backs. The entire apartment is in need of a fresh coat of paint as the walls were both dirty and scuffed. The apartment could also use a deep cleaning and did not meet the standards that I expect in a rental property. We found several pots with caked on food, we washed down the kitchen cabinets which had caked on food and finger prints, the dishwasher has not been cleaned for some time, there was a layer of dust over several heating elements, furniture, under the beds, the sinks did not drain properly and we had to clean the coffee maker before it would work. I would not stay here again.
• Patricia (10/5): Magnífico espacio en magnifica ubicación. - Departamento extremadamente limpio y muy bien equipado, lindo detalle el tenerlo calefaccionado cuando llegamos (hacía frío) la persona a cargo siempre estuvo dispuesta a ayudar y contestar dudas en forma sumamente amable. Con un Tesco a mano y cerca de todo, más una vista inmejorable, del Támesis, no pudimos haber elegido un mejor lugar.
• Mere (8/5): - The property was in a great location a short walk to local train station and bus station the local Tesco just outside ground level down a couple stairs so close. The Uber wharf can be seen from the balcony. Plenty of room 2 full bathrooms with a toilet as well as a 3rd toilet in with the laundry. Kitchen well equipped. The main bedroom has a queen bed and a single, while the other bedroom has a double/queen. There are only two bedrooms, which worked well for my family; however, if you need three bedrooms, this property isn’t suitable. There isn’t a third sleeping option in the lounge unless you’re comfortable sleeping on the couch. The furniture could use updating, as it was quite worn. For the price everything warranted it but the lounge didn’t.
• Patricia (6/5): Flat is okay, but needs a refresh. Furnishings are not the best. Flats in an excellent location. - Proximity to the tube and to the Thames River Uber Taxi’s. Access to the flat street entrance from Uber drop off. Bit of a walk and having to carry luggage up 2 sets of stairs was a bit more than expected. Used portable heater in living room (wall unit did not work. Sofa and loveseat have stretch covers on them which makes you wonder what’s beneath. Beds are quite hard. Blinds in each room were a mess. Lost power for several hours on our last evening, but owner was very responsive. Outside noise comes through bedroom windows - and it was very noisy during October nights. The proximity of the flat to transport is wonderful. The Thames Uber Taxis were a godsend.
• Greta (7/5): Overall, really good spot to stay and had a problem with the kitchen sink but was rectified quickly which was appreciate - Very spacious The mattresses weren’t comfortable
• Kome (10/5): Excellent location that was easily accessible and fun. - The location was excellent with many different amenities available like the train station, a Tesco, a gym, and some restaurants.
• H (8/5): -
• Marta (10/5): - El apartamento es muy cómodo, grande y tiene de todo.
• Julio José Agenjo Páez (10/5): - El apartamento es muy amplio y cómodo en general. Estaba limpio pero para mi gusto había zonas como la cocina q se podría mejorar.
• Audrey (8/5): Un magnifique séjour en famille - Appartement très grand. L’emplacement à proximité d’un métro était un plus. Beaucoup de commerces et restaurants autour Il n’y a rien que je n’ai pas aimé
• Marcio (10/5): Excelente custo benefício e fácil localização da acomodação - Localização próximo aos principais pontos turísticos e há a facilidade de ter uma estação do metro em frente a acomodação
• Siobhan (10/5): -
• Mate (10/5): - Very spacious and clean apartment right next to Vauxhall station
• Baterdene (8/5): -
• Derek (8/5): Loved our stay and would definitely stay again! Spacious, had everything we needed. Owner very helpful and so easy to de - It’s not the Ritz BUT apartment was spacious and had everything we needed for a great stay! Having 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a washing machine and dryer, a lift, a little Tesco supermarket in the bottom of the building and an Uber Boat at our doorstep was amazing. Beds were comfy however a nice padded memory foam mattress topper would take them up a few levels… Warm apartment, I imagine would be hot in summer but there are fans in each room. Owner was very helpful and so easy to deal with! Price - reasonable 👌 Some minor cleaning and maintenance issues - dining table top needs replacing/up cycling and laundry cupboards in need of repair. When raised with owner were well received and addressed immediately. Outside noise can be loud (welcome to London!) so would suggest ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper. We tired ourselves out everyday so we slept well! NONE of the above affected our stay and would stay again!!
• Deb (9/5): Great location!! - The location and majority of the flat were awesome! Having the easy accessibility to the Uber Boat was extremely nice. The kitchen was clean and well appointed. The bedrooms were good - very large. The views from the living room area were really nice, overlooking the river and the city. There were fans in every room. There was a washer and dryer in the unit. It didn't have a coffee maker, but did have a hot water pot and instant coffee.There were some issues with the windows, but they were apparently being repaired the day we left. The balcony off one of the bedrooms was cluttered and would not have been a good place to hangout. The air conditioner was portable and needed the door to the balcony in the living room area to be open for it to vent effectively. There are a few stairs that must be climbed to get to the door of the building.
• Kay Kerr (10/5): Staying here made our time in London even more enjoyable. And the 2 balconies were added bonuses!! - This place was amazing & exceeded all our expectations!! Our host was very responsive & quick to respond when we had questions. The location surpassed what we thought we were getting. We would definitely stay here again.
• Ashish K Gupta (10/5): -
• Tobiloba (10/5): Exceptional -
• Manuel (9/5): Superb - Too expensive!!
• Yu (10/5): Great gateway at London from home - Good location and spacious apartment for five people. We feel like home.
• Laura (7/5): Good - Great location with excellent communication from the owner and staff. It's obvious the owner does care about guest experiences. The kitchen was well stocked and nicely laid out. It was quite a plus to have separate washing and drying machines rather than the combined units in most other places. Lots of space and the view of the Thames is a bonus. The flat is in need of updating. New mattresses as well as better living room furniture and a fresh coat of paint would do wonders. We love very firm mattresses but these hurt our backs. Black out drapes rather than mini blinds would upgrade the unit.
• Michael (6/5): Location is everything! - Location River views Excellent communication with owner Flat very spartan. Poor quality furniture and decor. Broken patio door and curtains.
• Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
• Richard (10/5): Loved the flat and location - For anyone staying here, the location to the tube and bus is fantastic. You can go underneath the intersection or cross easily at the top. Bus 87 was scenic and great for getting us to Westminster/Big Ben/theater district, and not too full. Train was fast to Victoria if you use it. There are restaurants along the railroad past MI6 too if needed. The Uber Boat is great but full on weekends but still doable. The Tesco downstairs was great as was having the Pret a Manger as well. Elevator was easy to our floor. Internet was great. Very happy about the flat. The beds are a bit harder than in the US btw but that’s normal.
• Sandie (10/5): Amazing, brilliant. - The cleanliness, size and everything we needed was there. The communication was excellent. Definitely stay there again. Nothing
• Brett (10/5): Very good. - Nice and big, 2 bedrooms and a large family room. Very close to everything, a couple of bars on the Thames riverside. And so close to Vauxhall tube and train station.
• Balaji (10/5): Exceptional - It had a view that I missed the second I checked out. It was extremely comfortable and clean and super cozy. I'd love to be back some day!
• Dan (10/5): Perfect - Everything. Excellent service. Location great. Clean, spacious flat. Can’t recommend enough! Nothing
• Lupe (10/5): A great family vacation in London! - The flat was perfect. Very spacious rooms, living room and kitchen. The location of the flat was excellent very easy access to the Underground. Would recommend this location 100%.
• Alison (9/5): Excellent stay at this lovely spacious flat - Great location with easy travel options. Spacious accommodation which was a haven after a days activity. Warm and able to self cater easily. Lovely view of the river. Excellent communication with owner, who was very accommodating. Easy access to express supermarkets. Nothing to be honest.
• Gardner (10/5): Exceptional - Brilliant location. Host was very helpful and responsive. Spacious flat with great facilities. Would definitely stay again. The sofas weren't particularly comfortable.
• Kamille (10/5): Exceptional - Would definitely stay with them again. Loved all the facilities. Good location.
• Westfall (6/5): Pleasant - The location was ok.. it was hard to see when our taxi was arriving, to far out from attractions..
• Daniel (9/5): Great living space by Vauxhall - Great large living space in a very good location. Fantastic views through the livingroom balcony. Good seating table for a family of 5 and a very good online communication with the host. The flat may need some light maintenance touch-ups. However, this didn't stop us having a great time.
• Silvana (8/5): It was very convenient being so close to the ferry. The flat had loads of space for the whole family and the host was so - The host was so helpful and always quick to respond. The flat itself had loads of room. The oven wasn’t user friendly.
• Archana (10/5): Definitely come back! - Location was good and the flat was very comfortable. There was a Tesco express right outside and tube station walking distance. All essential items and basic necessities were provided. The cleaner was present when we checked in and helped explain all gadgets. The host response was prompt and was communicating on whatsapp which was very convenient.
• Mohammad (6/5): This is a great place to stay provided that the owner takes a better care of the Property. - This Property is an excellent location, you are in the center of everything, every means of transportation is available within minutes of walk. Safe & secured, has a bunch of convenient stores around, facing the waterfront, you can sit in the balcony & enjoy a mesmerizing view of the Thames. The accessibility is good, very few steps into the building. The property is considered very spacious considering you are in the UK & it was very spacious, 2 Large bedrooms with attached 2 full baths, one half bathroom on the enternace. As we step into the property, I was shocked by the worn off furniture, everything was old & worn off. It was quiet dusty as well, me and my daughter have an Asthma problem, within hours of our stay, we started coughing & sneezing. The Pillows had no cover on them, the Bed linens looked like it just came out of the washing machine, the mattress in the second bedroom & the extra bed was all worn off, you can feel the springs of the mattress, the padding was almost completely gone. We tried to clean the apartment just to find out that the Vacuum cleaner was broken as well. The Sofas in the living room had a ragged clothing covering them, with many stains on the seats. We had to wash the Towels & the Linen before using them, we were not sure if they were clean or not.
• Kenneth (8/5): Great location - Location and size. We wished there would have been air conditioning as it was quite hot but the provided fans really helped.
• Richard (10/5): Great stay for young family sightseeing trip - Great location, easy access to vauxhall tube station. As we were traveling with two young children having a sizable living area was great. Host was very attentive and pleasant, went above and beyond purchasing a travel cot for our stay! A balcony door and window didnt seal very well allowing some street noise to enter.
• Elizabeth (10/5): Great location and great amenities! - Excellent space for a family of six, well-appointed kitchen, outstanding location with easy access to public transportation, very responsive and welcoming host. Location can’t be beat with restaurants, a small supermarket and gym (daily access for fee) all downstairs!!
• Robert (10/5): Exceptional -
• Charles (7/5): Beware of the unit's Concierge - The location and facility were great. Very clean and great view within walking distance of restaurants and transportation. A convenience store was within a few hundred feet of the building entrance. The concierge service was poor. Communications via telephone and texts were problematic. We had problems with the initial accessing of the building (key hidden in the flowers). Although we complained about the keys and automatic lock not working for getting in and out of the unit, promises to take care of were delayed until we were leaving probably because we arrived on Friday and left on Tuesday. The inflatable bed had leaks. Always received responses from Concierge that previous guests did not have the same problems. Concierge directed initially that we should not check with the front desk concierge services. That was an early sign of this being unusual---we are not supposed to talk about renting the unit or be seen with luggage coming and leaving the unit.
• Kin (10/5): It was an amazing experience and I would surely recommend to my friends and family. - The facility have all the things a person needs. We liked everything.
• خالدمرشد (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment owner was responsive, quick to respond, and courteous No thing
• Anoop (8/5): Very good - Location, communication, space
• Sophia (7/5): Good - Restaurant in the building Store located few steps away Underground steps away Spacious rooms Nice bathrooms street noise No air conditioning couldn’t open windows because of noise Hospital near with sirens Bed in 2nd room was low to the floor mattress was hard
• Tomáš (10/5): Great area, cozy, quiet and well equipped flat. Extraordinary friendliness of landlord. - The area of Lambeth where th flat is located is absolutely great, nearby the Thames river, as well as the tube station and the grocery stores. It ´s the quiet place, not so far from the heart of the city. Friendliness of the landlord is extraordinary
• Arnaud (9/5): Na - Clean, space, location, all as described Nothing
• Petr (9/5): Central, big and supportive owner - Super supportive owner, and excellent central location. The flat is just huge with nice views A flat would benefit from a maintenance check. There was no big issue but small bits here and there. It is visible that the flat is very popular.
• Susan (9/5): Superb - The spaciousness, convenience, view, cleanliness, privacy. Cord for opening and closing vertical blinds didn't work. Not having the flat manager to talk to was weird although he was very prompt in answering WhatsApp messages except on arrival when we couldn't find the building. Rather odd that we had to look in the garden for the key!
• Shagufta (10/5): Exceptional - Location great and staff easy to reach on text..thank you for great service..I already recommend you guys to friends and family.. Everything was great
• Olivia (10/5): Exceptional - loved the staff and the location very close to metro
• Marina (10/5): Amazing appartments in the heart of London - The accommodation was very clean, comfortable beds, large rooms including bathrooms. The biggest advantage of the accommodation are the two balconies. The living room has a wonderful view of the river and the city. The distance to the train, bus station or metro was approx. 2 minutes. You can walk to the center in about 20 minutes. The host was very polite, communicated immediately and clearly. Next time I will definitily order the same appartments. There was nothing to complane, everything was perfect
• Monica (9/5): Superb - Great location and friendly super fast responding contact Everything was great
• Gillian (6/5): Pleasant - Great location, spacious flat Could have been cleaner
• Carsten (10/5): Exceptional - Good communication with the owner. Thanks for your flexibility. Very close to Vauxhall Metro.
• Napilnikovs (10/5): Perfect place where to stay in London - Location, property, price Everything was very good
• Dathan (9/5): Great place to stay, will be back - Location, cleanliness Would have preferred a second TV in the bedroom
• Huw (9/5): Superb -
• Tracey (7/5): Great family trip to London, will definitely go back so much we never got to do - Location was very close to tube so made it easy to go in / out of Central London, balcony looks onto Thames, lovely restaurant nearby called Food Market (I think), it was all different cuisines and great atmosphere. Riverside restaurant near flat and was very nice and staff lovely Asked to drop off cases early but couldn't get hold of cleaner, eventually found building and other resident let us in and knocked on flat door few times and managed to get in. Advertised as having sofa bed however we spent an hour trying to convert sofas into a bed, contacted host who told us to contact cleaner to be told it was a blow up bed in cupboard. Not ideal for my 24 year old son!!! and this was main reason we booked apartment so everyone had a bed
• Manohari (10/5): Exceptional - Pleasant, quiet and neatly maintained flat.
• Julio (9/5): Superb - Location perfect. Very practical for buses, tube, even walking into London city centre. Nice views of the Thames. Spacious.
