Guest Reviews

• Daniela (7/5): -
• Lorenzo (6/5): - Posizione Pulizia
• Monica (5/5): Lo consiglio solo per la posizione. - La cosa positiva della struttura è la posizione centrale che dà la possibilità di visitare anche a piedi gran parte della città. La metro è molto vicina e accanto ci sono tanti locali e anche un piccolo supermarket. Non mi è piaciuta la pulizia. Il divano scomodo. Non ci sono saponi per lavarsi.
• Vanessa (1/5): Sucio Viejo Descuidado - La ubicación Estaba todo sucio, la puerta de entrada vieja y sucia, con escaleras sucias, entrada al apartamento sucio, pequeño y nada colocado y sucio. Se rompió la ventana nada más abrirla y ni la podían arreglar, las sábanas hechas un ovillo en el armario, no quise mirar bajo la cama o sillón cama, baño viejo con ventana rota llena de cagadas de Paloma dando a un patio interior lleno de suciedad. 0 recomendable. Nos fuimos directamente y estoy ahora en trámite de devolución. Tuve que coger otro apartamento y perder 1 día en Londres.
• MARY (8/5): Fantastic location, affordable for what it offers.... but there are some 'buts' - I booked the apartment for its affordability and location, and I felt happy, particularly with the location. The apartment was easy to heat, and the hosts were responsive to all my messages. They offered a very generous check-in/out. The shower was, at best warm, for me. I did notify the host and was told by the two workers that it was a fine temperature, with one mentioning it seemed cold to me, as I was old. Sooo, I gave up. Other things to note, there was no soap, insufficient toilet paper and there's a wardrobe, that's filled with the host's linen.
• Petia Alexandrova (8/5): - Местоположението до метро. Наличие на всичко необходимо в апартамента. Сложност с ключовете, защото бравата заяждаше. Прозорецът не се затваряше добре.
• Jacob (8/5): - The washing machine and dryer were super helpful after travelling for a few weeks, the kitchen area was pretty good for cooking, the train station and supermarkets are only a short walk away, the heating was easy to use and matched the task of a winter in London, and check in and out was flexible. It was tricky to find the right door at first, the ventilation is not the best while cooking which is exacerbated by the two bedroom windows being mostly inoperable, and the shower only gets hot water for maybe 5-10 minutes.
• Groppi (6/5): - posizione e spaziosità rumore della strada e scarsa pulizia

• Dorothée (7/5): Pratique et convenable - Emplacement au top, lave linge et sèche linge permettant d'arriver léger, ventilateur micro-ondes grille pain et bouilloire (plaques de cuisson présentes mais pas utilisé) Pas d'etendoir à linge , certaines prises avaient l'air de ne pas fonctionner mais on s'est débrouillé. Ca manquait d'un rouleau de papier toilette et d'un torchon. État moyen mais honnêtement quand on cherche le prix on s'accommode des détails donc nous ça nous a convenu.
• Schulz (7/5): Zentral gelegenes Appartement mit Potenzial nach oben. - Das Appartement war sehr zentral gelegen, mit Bus und Bahn bestens erreichbar – ideal, um die Stadt unkompliziert zu erkunden. Die Unterkunft selbst war angenehm, mit schönem, hellem Licht, das für eine freundliche Atmosphäre sorgte. Ich habe mich dort sehr wohl und jederzeit sicher gefühlt. Der Kontakt zum Inhaber war gut. Das Appartement lag direkt an einer stark befahrenen Hauptstraße mit vielen Lokalen – entsprechend laut war es, auch nachts. Die Fenster waren schmutzig, das Bett sehr hart, und in der Küche fehlte es an brauchbarem Besteck; die vorhandenen Töpfe und Pfannen waren stark zerkratzt. Trotz dieser Mängel hat mir der Aufenthalt insgesamt gefallen.
• Nikita (1/5): If you want to lose money, have a terrible experience, and dispute unhygienic and dirty conditions, stay here - Nothing at all. Avoid at all cost As soon as we entered the place we saw pubic hairs on the “allegedly cleaned” floor and there was no toilet paper on the restroom nor soap or hand towels. There was listed an oven but there wasn’t any clean plates or glasses plus kettle, and worst of all there was semen on the couch
• Michal (10/5): - 1) Lokalizacja, 2) nie było problemu z wcześniejszym zameldowaniem Czystość
• Cansu (5/5): Passable - It was dirty. Washing maschine was full.
• Webby (5/5): Check in time was 15:00 but we got there after 16:00. The place was dirty, it was cleaned up and the bed not made up. We -
• Oliver (9/5): Superb -
• David (2/5): Very disappointing and substandard accommodation. Did not sleep well on the first night. - Location On arrival to destination, I was contacted at the last moment by the owner to advise that the subject accommodation was unavailable due to error by booking.com and therefore was not available for the first night of stay. Was offered an alternative address further south towards Angel district but no other information re size of apartment, facilities and amenities. Given the lack of any other alternatives, we reluctantly agreed on good faith that we would stay at this revised location for the first night. Unbeknownst to us, the alternative apartment was at 3rd floor level with steep stairs and broken hand rails. The alternative apartment (192 Goswell Road) is considered unsuitable for occupation with no hot water in the shower, and in general terms, the apartment is in dire need of refurbishment. In addition to this, the wiring and lack of any defined escape route in case of fire is in clear breach of building regulations and DDA standards. For the record, I work for a local government authority within the planning and building control functions! The actual apartment that we booked and eventually stayed at was a slight improvement, but similar health and safety issues evident at this location also.
• Daniela (7/5): Okeish, but would stay somewhere else next time - The little flat was cozy and cute The building was really ugly and smelly, lots of cracks and less taken care off. The bathroom black out was broken, and the shower a bit cracked. The flat faces a main road so was pretty noisy at nights
