Guest Reviews

• Keith (4/5): Do not stay here. - The location was fantastic, very close to the Excel, food and tube. The apartment is falsely advertised, it’s basically someone’s room in their apartment on the ground floor right next to the walkway. There were a lot of random carpets over lapping each other which caused numerous trips. The host took a long time to reply to the point where I nearly had to cancel because I was getting no information from him. There were no towels to dry ourselves and were told “here is £40 go get your own” which was extremely unprofessional and we didn’t have the time to get our own due to working. The TV also didn’t work and the wifi was very very slow to the point we couldn’t do any work. We also had to buy our own toilet roll and there was someone else’s razor left in the bathroom. The deposit took forever to get back and was told they had “forgot” to release the funds. We also felt it was only right to take photos of the apartment to prove we kept it clean as we felt we would get scammed from previous reviews. Overall it’s in a great location and the price for that location is great but everything else sucked and would never recommend this place to anyone and I feel the host should not be doing this. I’ve also never left such a review before but I felt strongly I had to do so to warn others and I have all conversations saved to prove my points with photos.
• Seth (8/5): Very good -
• Ann (2/5): Any benefit was overshadowed by theft of the deposit for false and ridiculous accusation of damage. - The apartment was very convenient for the Excel Centre and the videos for direction were helpful. The listing was misleading - there was no garden/garden view, bath, iron/ironing facilities, coffee machine, no minibar, no tv remote, no bedding for the sofabed, no means to contact the host (telephone never answered), no means to regulate the heating (far too hot), only dishes and plates, 2 cups, 4 forks and nothing else to prepare food. The carpet was covered with an assortment of rugs and mats which we both tripped over. The terrace was a public walkway. Instructions officious, communication sporadic - the deposit link and pin were only released at the last minute. The property is incorrectly advertised as a 'private apartment' as there is an adjoining door which could be accessed (we were aware of someone there). The overall feeling was that guests were not welcome.
• Vio (10/5): Exceptional cleanliness, support and amazing location! - Really easy to collect the keys, because there was plenty of information describing this, even a video was sent before arriving, showing how to get to the property, how to access the keys and how to open/lock the door to the property. This was great, as not many other hosts choose to do this. It would have been great to have maybe some hand-soap and shower gel, although there was shampoo/conditioner :)
