Guest Reviews

• Yannick (9/5): - Excellent emplacement. Endroit très calme et cosy. Vraiment bien aménagé et fonctionnel. Il était très confortable pour nous de disposer d'une machine a laver sur place. Il manquait une poêle dans les instruments de cuisine et une douche aurait été mieux qu'un deuxième bain. Mais ça reste quand même un super endroit.
• Debra (8/5): We enjoyed our visit. - Nice location and host was excellent! A bit cluttered with personal items.
• Ingrid (2/5): Great location, but Don’t let the photos or write up fool you and keep expectations low! - Incredible location, nice balcony, responsive host - to a point. Comfy lounge aside from dining chairs. Dated and needs a good scrub. Had dirty carpets, not a single cupboard to unpack one’s clothing into, mattress in main bedroom especially was terrible! Dining room chairs are finished & one sinks right in. Very cluttered and lived in by someone else
• Matthew (10/5): Excellent comms before and after stay. Very spacious in the most incredible location. - Location amazing and perfect stay Nothing
• Michelle (9/5): - Location location location, Brian and Karl are very responsive and nice to accommodate to the request. Fully furnished kitchen easy to cook. Clean and cozy Bathtub is a bit deep and slippery but there is anti slippery mat available which helps a lot
• Louise (8/5): Comfy and convenient. - Very warm and comfortable. Great location. Quiet. A little tired. Bed against wall in one bedroom so difficult to get in and out of.
• Joëlle (8/5): Agréable séjour à deux pas de Kensington Gardens - L’emplacement, la superficie de l’appartement. Réactivité de Brian, très arrangeant et disponible. RAS
• Emma (10/5): Loved this property - The location is excellent and if any questions these are sorted immediately. The kitchen is very well equipped and its feels like a home from home. Could not get Netflix to work
• YANG (1/5): -
• ZHIJUN (6/5): -
• Julie (9/5): Great location, plenty of room for a family and enjoyed the facilities, the second bathroom! - Clean , comfortable and warm Fridge was noisy, might need a maintenance check.
• Joan (8/5): A gem of a place - It's a beautiful apartment, clean and comfortable and very centrally situated The baths/showers were slippery so a handle would be helpful as one climbs in and out. No mirror or bedside lamp in the 2nd bedroom. These would definitely not deter me from renting this apartment again though. The positives well out weighed the minor negatives.
• Kirsty (10/5): Fantastic - Location, value for money Needs more pillows on the bed! (Preference)
• Z.Ha (10/5): -
• Courtney (8/5): Very nice but needs extra keys - The property did not have 2 sets of keys. This made it hard to coordinate when our family did different activities. I suggested another set to host. Other than this difficulty we had a lovely stay. Location is great!
• Dan (10/5): Excellent - Location and roominess Nothing
• Joanna (10/5): Niesamowite miejsce, super skomunikowane z innymi częściami miasta, cicho. - Swietny punkt, duza przestrzen Za malo pustych gniazdek elektrycznych
• Kerstin (10/5): Die Wohnung und die Lage hat uns einen besonderen Aufenthalt in London gewährt. - Die Wohnung befindet sich einer super Lage und die Wohnung ist sehr Gut ausgestattet und die Größe ist ideal für Familien . n/a
• Åshild (8/5): -
• Matthias (10/5): -
• sabine (8/5): - Top Lage., sehr freundlicher Kontakt.Alles was man braucht war vorhanden. Very british...kommen gerne wieder! Nichts
• Susanne (5/5): Rigtig god beliggenhed. Stille og roligt område tæt på metro og busser. Lejligheden er slidt og der -
• Colin (10/5): Great short break with 18 year-old granddaughter before she returned home to New Zealand. - Great first floor flat convenient for museums, parks and public transport. Well equipped including washer / drier and dishwasher. The lights in the living room were all lamps so could not put any light on when Exeter room. But not a big deal.
• Inyang (6/5): -
• Robert (10/5): Loved this property that felt like a home away from home. - Great location. Quiet neighborhood. Spacious home. Couldn’t get access to the balcony. Doors seemed impossible to unlock. A minor quibble though.
• Danielle (7/5): - Beautiful apartment with a great location. Host was very helpful and guided us on directions. A few suggestions. Think it could use a refresh with better quality items to match the apartment and area. Such as better quality towels, bedding, More pillows. We only had 1 towel per person for 5 days and they were small and aged. Couch and chairs felt worn out and not comfortable. Nowhere to put clothes up, the closets were blocked off and no luggage rack, balcony was beautiful maybe adding stable chairs and removing used shoes, it seemed lived in with personal items.
• Aimee (10/5): Spacious apartment in a great location - Spacious property, central location walking distance to Hyde Park and Kensington Palace, fully equipped kitchen with tea and coffee
• Adam (9/5): -
• Ege Yunus (9/5): -
• James (8/5): We had wonderful stay in the flat. The location for the value is unmatched! - The location is exceptional. Quite street in the heart of Kensington steps from shops and restaurants and an easy walk to Cheslea and Hyde Park. In the heart of the melon without the hustle and bustle of high tourist traffic. One of the best meals we had in London was a 5-minute walk to Clark's Restaurant! We felt the lack of air conditioning in late June. An upgrade of fans for air circulation would have been nice. Also, basic items like higher quality linens, towels and bath soaps would have made it more perfect. There really is nothing to complain about. These are only suggestions on how to make it even more exceptional.
• Rosalind (5/5): Budget accommodation in a central location - Two bathrooms and two bedrooms centrally located at an affordable rate. Whilst there is clearly thought and care by the hostess it really felt like we were unexpected guests and room had to be made for us. The apartment was very small especially the bedrooms and we did not have space for our luggage. Beds were small and not easy to get in and out of either as they are against walls. Dining chairs were not usable as they the padding had fallen out. For the price I guess that is what you get in London.
• James (10/5): Fantastic trip! - Great Flat! Location was great with easy access to the tube and local attractions. Our host Brian was very friendly and sent great pictures and instructions for checking in and answered questions if we had them.
• Paulomi (5/5): Passable - The location is very good. The owner is also helpful. The apartment is rundown. The lift was not working. As senior citizens we had lot of difficulties with bags. But the owner made it up by giving us free late checkout.
• Leena (9/5): Superb -
• Hema (10/5): Amazing location and amazing flat!! - Amazing location with great amenities! Easy to walk to train stations, bus stops, coffee and restaurants and a whole food market nearby. Brian the host was very reachable for any questions . Absolutely will stay here again. Everything was perfect with the flat! However the building Lift didn’t work so it was a little inconvenient to carry heavy luggages up and down.
• Paul (4/5): Great location but a poorly maintained apartment - Location was amazing Big Victorian windows Was not clean Chipped and dirty plates and cooking utensils One of the beds was very uncomfortable Terrible storage. One bedroom had no hanging space and just three shelves. No drawers at all. Owners clothes and belongings were taking almost all the storage. Bathroom lighting bulbs were not working Lift did not go on the floor so it was difficult with lots of cases Pellet for the curtains was only Velcro up and fell on my wife whilst she tried to open the curtains. The owner then tried to charge me for the repair of this which is crazy. The whole apartment is in poor condition. The sofas are very uncomfortable and very worn. Lack of decent towels Basically felt like it was someone's apartment that they leave for a few days when someone books it and it needs a proper management company and renovation. My advice is to find somewhere in this location but a different place
• Eddie (7/5): Good - Plugs overloaded with wires didn’t look safe
• Colleen (10/5): Exceptional -
• Peter (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional -
• William (10/5): Excellent location and beautiful apartment -
• Thomas (7/5): Good -
• Rickki (6/5): Not as new as pictured. - The place has old world charm. The beds were very uncomfortable.
• Michaela (9/5): Superb -
• Maria (9/5): Very much recommended place to stay in a wonderful neighborhood! - It was an excellent choice, taken that we were two colleagues travelling for work. The location was very convenient, close to public means. The host was excellent, quick answers/solutions to everything that we needed. The two bedrooms - two bathrooms combination was ideal for us. More than a hotel room, but the privacy was there. I would appreciate a larger space for luggage...or somewhere to put our suitcases on
• Anna (10/5): Exceptional - Nice and quiet neighbourhood. Good location close to two tube stations. Cosy apartment.
• Rhea (10/5): Exceptional - Location is great. The flat is amazing. Landlord is a very nice guy.
• Wendy (10/5): Great location , nice place - Location was fantastic
• Meredith (10/5): Very comfortable stay for a family of 4. Great location for easy commute to popular tourist spots. -
• Suzanne (9/5): Superb -
• Sian (10/5): Had a great time - Great location very central but quiet
• Amy (10/5): Exceptional -
• Elizabeth (8/5): Lovely apartment in fantastic location with attentive host - would stay again. - Fantastic location. Room was nice and clean and bright. Brian was a lovely host and very attentive before we arrived and after we got there. Very accessible, very happy to help with any issues. We would stay here again! Room was a bit smaller than it seemed on the photos. Would have been nice if at least one couch in the LR were long enough to sleep on. (We were a family staying there and would have liked the extra space.) AC only works some of the time.
• Sean (10/5): Exceptional -
• Harrison (10/5): Great location in Kensington. - The location is amazing. Kensington is a great spot and the walk to High Road Kensington station made navigating London very easy. Nothing. We really liked staying there.
• Nurul (10/5): Great for small families! - The proximity to shops and buses/ trains was great. The apartment was beautifully furnished with delightful details. Brian, the host responded quickly each time and was really friendly. Nothing much to say that is negative!
• Ignatius (10/5): Awesome accommodation with convenient access to a tube station, stores, church and attractions! - The proximity to High Street Kensington Station and Marks & Spencer stall is like 10 mins walk from the property. As a Catholic, I enjoyed the opportunity to be close to a Catholic Church - Parish of Our Lady of Mount Carmel & St Simon Stock which was literally a stones throw away (like 3 mins walk). There is also a small Salisbury nearby ...like 5 mins walk. One can also walk to the nearby Kensington Gardens which is about 10 mins walk. The KEY pick up and drop off is seamless and is just a 3 mins walk from the property. The property is well stock with the necessary essentials like trash bags, toilet papers and washing deferent. If u wish to visit the Portobello Market on Fri and the weekends, it is just a 25 mins + walk. It is also close to the Notting Hill area. Just a note if u have difficulty with stairs - to reach the unit, u will need to go up the stairs although there is a lift within the property, for us it made more sense to just climb the stairs. Lastly, Brian is an excellent host who does regular whatsapp checks to ensure that everything is good. Just a slight issue with the Water Heater which kind of kick in on the last night and morning of our stay. We were unable to get warm water which may be attributed to the shared heater.
• Ching-hui (10/5): Exceptional - Great location
• Kristel (5/5): Was okay for a short stay but appartment needs a refurbishment - Location, very quiet Kitchen equipment very limited and dirty, there was no electricity in the 2nd bathroom
• Karen (10/5): So happy we stayed here and will definitely refer it to others and stay again in the future. - We loved the location- safe neighborhood steps away from Kensington gardens. We walked through the gardens every morning. Short walk (3 blocks) to High Kensington station, shops, restaurants and coffee shops. The apartment itself was clean and cute and perfect for our family with two bathrooms and living space! Nothing- all good
• Svetlana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mee (10/5): A lovely stay with the super responsive and helpful host Brian😍👍🏻👍🏻 Thank you so much 😍😍 -

• Hólmgrímsdóttir (10/5): Excellent, do recommend. - The location is exceptional. Amazing Italian restaurant just down the street. Shopping really close by and easy access to metro. Host greeted us with kindness and wanted to make our stay good. Bus stop close by that takes you to oxford strett and shopping around there, Hyde park, and more.
• João (10/5): Exceptional - Great location and Brian is a great host, super nice and helpful, giving us all conditions for a great stay. Would book again for sure.
• Tal (10/5): Don’t think twice - book it! - The apartment is excellent! Located perfectly near the park and shopping, equipped to the very last detail inc washing machine powder, tablets for the dishwasher, garbage bags. There’s Netflix and connectors, towels and spices. Honestly I could move in there to live without buying a thing. Nothing. Perfect.
• Paul (10/5): Beautiful apartment, perfectly located, a pleasure to stay there -
