Guest Reviews
- Trudy (8/5): The host was helpful. The location was near what we needed. The home was nicely decorated. - Very near our nephew, who we were visiting. Plenty of space. Attractively decorated. Responsive host. Entry in the thick of Portobello Market with people asking for money as you enter or exit. Washer/dryer combo does not dry clothes. Uncomfortable beds and pillows.
- Mary Beth (10/5): Amazing chic main character energy flat - We loved the incredible chic design, the wonderful location and the wonderful natural light. The hot water wasn’t turned on right away, but was fixed quickly!
- Lars (9/5): -
- Giacomo (10/5): - Appartamento stupendo nel cuore di Portobello Road.Un sogno!
- silvia (10/5): Il nostro soggiorno è stato meraviglioso. Posizione perfetta nel cuore di Nottinghill. Raccomandata! -
- Darren (7/5): - If you want to be in the middle of the action in Notting Hill, this location cannot be beat. You are in the heart of the daily street market and literally within walking (stumbling?) distance to many local pubs, restaurants and stores.
The flat is very roomy, which is what you pay for. Downstairs ceilings are very high, and it never felt crowded for the four of us...two adults, two teens. Also nice to have USB ports at some of the outlets to be able to charge devices without adapters.
Kitchen is equipped with coffee/espresso maker and came with several pods for morning brew. There were also some odds and ends in the cupboards, likely left over from previous tenants, e.g. teas, sugar, etc. We were probably there in the hottest week of the summer, and the flat just never got to a comfortable temperature the entire six days we were there. We opened windows to get a cross breeze, and tried the portable "air conditioning" units but they only provided relief if you were literally right in front of them. You likely won't have this issue 50 weeks out of the year.
Also, if you're coming from the US, know that the handler of this flat will likely communicate by WhatsApp, which isn't used as widely in the states. After we got to the flat for the first time, I didn't know the code to the lockbox and didn't know to look into WhatsApp where the code had been left.
I agree with the other posters that the toilets are at odd heights and the showers aren't the easiest to get into and out of. But the towels and linens were good quality, so points for that.
Finally, it would be nice to have an "owner's manual" left for renters for a quick guide on how to use the TV, Internet, washing machine, dishwasher, freezer (which almost but not quite made ice), and other appliances that might be second nature for Brits but a little different for foreigners.
- Anna (10/5): Inmillorable! - Tot! Es una casa preciòsa, la cuina, el terra de parquet molt comfortable… hem estat molt a gust. He dormit al dormitori principal que dona a Portobello Rd i no he sentit cap soroll, hi ha doble vidre. Res

- Sarah (9/5): True Notting Hill experience; great host - The location couldn’t be better if you want to be in the heart of Notting Hill and the Portobello Market. Very spacious flat.

- ALEKSEI (10/5): - Все было отлично!!! Месторасположение удобства, кровати постельное белье, хозяин супер, ответственный человек сразу помогал отвечал на все вопросы. Вернемся еще сюда с удовольствием! В первой ванной не удобно купаться нет шторки, по отоплению желательно сразу давать рекомендации! Но это все мелочи.
- Leonardo (7/5): Vent'anni fa sarebbe stata una ottima soluzione - La posizione era cruciale per la sera in quanto tutto quello di cui avevamo bisogno lo si trovava sotto casa.
L'appartamento era molto spazioso, ampio, soleggiato e il fatto di avere due bagni era proprio ciò di cui avevamo la necessità. L'effetto Wow è svanito quasi subito, trascorrendo il tempo al suo interno ho potuto evincere che vent?anni fa sarebbe stato wow, purtroppo la manutenzione e la pulizia scarseggiano e credo che siano scarseggiate da tempo, capisco, non può essere tutto perfetto, nemmeno casa mia lo è, ma almeno na ospito nessuno a pagamento e non chiedo soldi per le pulizie.
Cosa non mi è piaciuto:
1) innanzi tutto lo sgradevolissimo odore di fogna che emanava il bagno della camera padronale, quello con la vasca, (la soluzione è stata candeggina e non usarlo più, fortunatamente durante il giorno eravamo sempre in giro).
2) avremmo avuto bisogno della lavatrice, ma l'odore di muffa e sporco che mi ha sopraffatto aprendo lo sportello la prima volta mi hanno fatto desistere.
3) un altro motivo per il quale ho abbandonato l'uso del bagno con vasca è stato il manico rotto dello scopino del WC, che richiedeva prenderlo in zone non molto igieniche.
4) moti oggetti quali interruttori, telo delle sedie, braccioli in pelle del divano e corrimano... erano decisamente sporchi. Le ragnatele sopra la vasca sono testimonianza che chi pulisce ha la vista corta.
5) La doccia del bagno piccolo era scomodissima, con gradino d'accesso altissimo e l'apertura limitata dal lavandino, risultava comoda solo ad un contorsionista.
6) Il WC del bagno con vasca era troppo alto mentre il lavoro troppo basso, tutto troppo scomodo, e la vasca a idromassaggio mostrava tutti gli anni di non manutenzione, "per fortuna" lo abbiamo usato poco...
7) l'aria condizionata non quella a cui tutti in occidente siamo abituati ad avere, erano dei ventilatori decisamente rumorosi che sfruttavano l'acqua di un serbatoio per farla evaporare con il risultato di un leggero abbassamento dei gradi e l'aria un po' più umida.. insomma.
- Erisela (10/5): -
- Carole (9/5): Formidable -
- Ivana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sophie (10/5): My friends and I had an absolutely amazing stay. The apartment is in a perfect location for exploring West London. We di - Location. Size of apartment. Rooftop and patio Patio could have been more cozy
- Joe (8/5): Good location, nice place, know that there is a lot of street noise. - There was a suite king bedroom with a bathroom with a tub street facing. Other room was a queen bed and there was another bathroom with shower in the hall. Large windows for natural light, patio and rooftop. A coffee machine with capsules. The host provided some capsules and allowed for an earlier check in. She was very good to work with. The property entry is on Portabello Market road. There was a lot of nice amenities provided. 12 min walk to the nearest tube stop by there is a bus stop 1 block away that goes to the station, bus 52 and 452. As previous ratings suggest the larger bedroom has windows that face the Portabello road. There is a lot of noise at all times, with bars below there it is loud until 2am. The windows are thin so they don’t do a great job for noise protection. If you use a white noise maker it is manageable. Our sleep was not impacted as a result. The hall bathroom is very small with a tiny sink. The tub in the suite bathroom could use a curtain for showering. It was a bit dusty in unused areas and the rooftop could be cleaner and enhanced with a table.
- Julia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nicki (9/5): excellent! Amazing location and really appreciated the effort made by the host to help -
- Damien (10/5): Very stay in the heart of Notting Hill. Very spacious and a lot a light - Really nice to be on Portobello Road.
In the winter it is not noisy at night (I read some reviews saying it was noisy) Nothing special
- Marie-pierre (8/5): Great but noisy place - The house was very nice and well situated in Notting Hill, The downside of the situation of the house is that the bedroom to the Portobello Road was very loud from the street noises and it was difficult to sleep. I would recommend, if possible to install double glazing in this room.
