Guest Reviews

• Steve (9/5): Highly recommended - spacious and comfortable - Highly recommended - spacious and comfortable The location is great and really easy to find. Communication from the host was clear and quick, no problems. The apartment was lovely, really comfortable and had pretty much everything you’d need. The oven was easy to work out, which is always a bonus. The amount of stairs down to the bedroom was a bit of a surprise though The only negative for me was the WiFi which was fairly slow when it was working, and dropped out quite a few times. The smart tv has Netflix but it couldn’t connect because of the WiFi. I had to leave early so didn’t contact the host to see if he could fix it.
• Bondt (1/5): Dozens of Flies and Filth - This apartment was a massive disappointment that failed to meet even the most basic standards of hospitality and hygiene. It was nothing like the professional photos provided in the listing. The apartment was incredibly dirty and appeared as though it hadn't been cleaned in weeks. ​The floors were covered in grime, and the walls were filthy. To my shock, there were pieces of large debris and trash scattered across the floors. I even found what looked like fallen plaster from the ceiling lying on the ground. ​ ​The most horrific part of the stay was the flies. There were so many of them flying around that it felt like a scene from a horror movie. It was completely unsanitary. When I contacted the host to complain, their only response was to send a can of bug spray, which was useless against such a large infestation. ​​The building has no elevator, and this apartment is located on the very top floor. ​I have bad knees, and I was never warned about the lack of a lift. Every trip up was a painful struggle. If you have heavy luggage, it is a nightmare to haul it to the top floor. This lack of transparency is deceptive and caused me physical suffering. ​Conclusion ​Between the physical pain of the stairs, the debris on the floor, and the literal swarm of flies, this stay was a total disaster. I strongly advise you to book somewhere else.
• Alessandro (9/5): Ottima espereinza - La casa è come viene descritta ,ha tutto quello che serve, wifi,cucina attrezzata con tutto,smart TV,divano letto nel salotto e camera matrimoniale.. La consiglio vivamente, È un posizione strategica con metro vicina ,supermercati e pub Se dovessi tornare a Londra tornerei qui. Comunicazione ottima con Roy tramite whatsapp. Ho dato 9 punti anziché 10 solo per il fatto che è al quarto piano senza ascensore,ma c'è la siamo cacata ugualmente. 4 piano senza ascensore, ma non è un grattacielo quindi in realtà non ci sono grossi problemi.
• Patrick (8/5): Séjour très agréable - Agréable séjour dans cet appartement, très bien situé, à 15 mn à pied de St Pancras, près des bus, métro, dans un quartier calme. L'appartement est propre, bien équipé, avec des rangements dans la chambre. A savoir que la chambre est en souplex. Le propriétaire est très réactif et répond à toutes les questions. Éventuellement des sets de table sur la table en verre, plus agréable. Sinon, tout était parfait !
• Mariassunta (8/5): Buona posizione. - Buona posizione e camere curate. Non era specificato che l'alloggio si trova al quarto piano senza ascensore. Soffro di asma ed è stato estremamente complicato soggiornare in questo appartamento.
• Stephanie (8/5): Très bien - Calme de l’immeuble Produits et linge de toilette et cuisine sur place. Proximité du métro et des sites touristiques Bars et restaurants pour petit déjeuner et dîner Literie a besoin d’être changée dans le canapé lit du salon Besoin de stores plus occultant dans le salon
• Keith (8/5): -
• Richard (8/5): Nice apartment with good facilities and well located - Excellent location and good facilities A little shabby in some respects and a lot of stairs!
• Marie (8/5): Very good - Flat is bright, spacious and well equipped. Location is great. The hot water supply could be improved - lukewarm on day 1 and 2 (which was OK because summer), but no hot water at all on day 3... - Host was contacted and responded. Solution was found, but in the future I would recommend to pay particular attention to this point and proactively ensure everything works. Otherwise everything else was perfect.
• Nathalie (8/5): - Clean place, well equipped, good wifi and ample space No insect screens, it was very warm in the apartment
• MARINA (9/5): -
• Caroline (7/5): Bon emplacement mais rapport qualité prix moyen - L’accessibilité avant l’horaire prévu initialement. La chaudière dans la chambre qui a fuit et fait du bruit
• Fiona (9/5): Excellent apartment, highly recommended - Excellent location near tube station and British museum and within easy walking distance of central London. Great communication from owner from time of booking. Spacious and comfortable apartment with well stocked kitchen. Towels and toiletries provided. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend. Unstable wifi
• Nick (8/5): -
• Virginia (10/5): - Struttura pulita e in ottima posizione! Personale cordiale e disponibile. Ci ritornerò 😉
• peter (10/5): -
• Usman (10/5): Nice clean and comfy with excellent location. - Perfect location and very helpful owner. Apartment was clean and very well maintained. We really enjoyed our stay.
• Blandine (9/5): - Très bon emplacement, facile d'accès. Informations parfaites, bien équipé et propre. Stores peu efficaces pour occulter la lumière du jour.
• Karen (8/5): - Great location Flat was comfortable We stayed in flat number 8, the final flight of stairs were very narrow
• Jamie (9/5): Good location for British museum - Convenient location Clean and modern The stairs were a challenge The lack of bedside tables
• Lucie (7/5): Bien, mais le confort des lits laissait à désirer. - La localisation ! Le bruit d'une fête voisine le vendredi soir; et les matelas qui pourraient être beaucoup plus à la hauteur pour le prix.
• LIXIN (8/5): Location is good and good for family to stay. - location is good. A strange smell in stair way. Wifi is unstable and signals is weak.
• Catherine (9/5): - Firstly the communication from the minute I booked until check-out was brilliant. The place is huge photos don't do it justice. The property's bedroom is down the stairs so split into 2 levels The location is fabulous!! 1 minute from Russell square Station . Shops restaurants and more on the door step Also minutes walking distance from The national hospital of neurology And great ormand street. Everything you need from home to home Nothing... Just a few little things could of been added cushions on the sofa Hair dryer and booklet how to turn heating on over the winter months will be great Also advise it's on the 2nd floor and over 2 floors incase of mobility issues. But highly recommend and will book again
• Raina Sari (8/5): -
• Thomas (7/5): - Die Lage in London ist optimal. Sehr zentral und UBahn praktisch vor der Tür. Ausstattung ist sehr verbraucht. Betten taugen nicht für mehr als 3 Nächte.
• Niki (10/5): -
• Gieun (9/5): -
• Rita (9/5): Würden wir wieder buchen für ein paar Nächte. - Es war alles da was man brauchte an Ausstattung entsprechend der Beschreibung. Gute ruhige Lage, in der Nähe einer U-Bahnstation. Check-in Angaben wurden rechtzeitig und verlässlich mitgeteilt. Für 3 Nächte tip top. Ein Ausziehbett war nicht so bequem.
• James (10/5): -
• Liz (9/5): Will certainly use again. - Good communication with host, clean and well equipped. Excellent location.
• Preston (7/5): -
• Steven (9/5): Excellent - It was just great - clean and value
• PatrickB929292 (10/5): - Very good located, basic equipped, nice and cozy. The second bed (Couch) is a bit bad for an adult, but its okay. There could be more basic kitchen stuff like sugar. But that would all be cherry on the top
• Sylwia (9/5): - Mieszkanie w doskonałej lokalizacji, aby zwiedzać Londyn spacerując po mieście (pod warunkiem, że nie są nikomu straszne spacery 30 czy 40-minutowe). Za rogiem British Museum oraz knajpy i sklep Tesco czynny całą dobę. W mieszkaniu wszystkie niezbędne sprzęty, łącznie z ekspresem do kawy (na kapsułki) czy zmywarką. Właściciel zapewnił także herbatę, kawę, cukier, co było bardzo miłym gestem. Podobnie jak ręczniki (po 2 dla każdej osoby) oraz suszarka do włosów. Mieszkanie przestronne, byłyśmy we czwórkę i było naprawdę ok. Jedyny minus dla osób, które mają problem z poruszaniem się, to usytuowanie mieszkania na wyższym piętrze bez windy. Trzeba pokonać nieco więcej krętych schodów na górę.
• Paweł (10/5): - The Apartment was very cosy and had everything we needed, especially the kitchen, also big thanks for the adapter for european plugs. The building and the neighborhood is also very nice.
• cesar (8/5): -
• Maru (9/5): - ロケーションは最高でしたし、ホストの方もとても親切でした。 エレベーターがなかったことに驚きましたが、ロンドンはそのようなところが多いようですね。 チェックアウト後に無料で荷物を置かせていただく場所があったのも助かりました。 ありがとうございました。
• Barbara (9/5): -
• James (10/5): -
• Casá (10/5): - La ubicación y la distribución del espacio.
• Michelle (7/5): -
• Fernando (8/5): - La ubicación No hay ascensor
• Christopher (9/5): Great place to stay for visits into central London - The property was right near Russell Square tube station, a pub, bakery and supermarket. We used it as a base after traveling in via train to London St Pancras. A ten minute walk from there or one minute from Russell Sq. Good size apartment with a double bedroom and a double sofa bed in the lounge area. Full size kitchen with all equipment. The apartment is on the top floor so could be a challenge for some. Also the communal area had a fusty smell about it but not a problem in the apartment.
• LI (9/5): - 位置极佳，走路到大英博物馆5分钟。地铁站可以直达希思罗机场。房主沟通很顺畅，会及时回复消息，并允许提前安放行李和稍微延迟一点退房，很人性化。 美中不足的是没有电梯，搬大件行李上下楼有点费力，也没有空调，入住时候刚好是8月，顶楼太热了。
• Xavier (8/5): Great location for a London based vacation - This apartment is perfect for a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids). We stayed for 8 nights and can say only good things in general. The bedroom has a very comfy queen size bed and there's a sofa bed in the living room pretty convenient for the kids. I wouldn't recommend for a party of 4 adults. Very clean space with a fully furnished kitchen (including washing/dry unit, and dishwasher. It provides also soap for both). It has also an iron for the clothes. The one bedroom has tons of storage in the cabinets that can be used for 4 people. The bathroom is spacious and provides amenities like soap/shampoo. Just around the corner you have Russell Square underground, which means the apartment is a great base for your London trip. And not really far (15min walking you have Euston as well). There´s also a Tesco Express (like Carrefour Express) for quick grocery shopping and a Waitrose (like Kroger) for a long stay shopping within 5 minutes walking. Finally Roy (our property contact) was really helpful, allowing us for an early check in and answering in less than 10 minutes to any question that we had. Everything is good, but you can always raise the bar: the appartment only had a fan which was super noisy ( I would recommend the facility management to buy a pair of silent fans) since it gets really hot in sunny summer days. Also I would recommend deep clean of the carpet in the bedroom.
• corni (10/5): - Struttura molto accogliente, luminosa e pulita. L' host molto gentile e disponibile. Posizione fantastica!
• said (9/5): - تعامل صاحب السكن جدا راقي ومحترم المكان هادئ جدا الشقه قريبه من محطة قطار الانفاق دقيقه سيرا على الاقدام طلبنا تاخير الخروج ووافق بكل سرور ووفر لنا مكان لتخزين حقائبنا
• lin (9/5): -
• Helen (8/5): Great stay - The place is in a prime location, and easy access to Tesco and restaurants nearby. The flat is very spacious and can accommodate four people. Love how the host put everything to book in the kitchen starting from toaster to pots and pans and everything. Very easy to communicate. The room is very warm as it is on the top floor and we went there during the heat wave. No lift, so a bit tricky with the luggages. The road is very noisy at night.
• Anthony (8/5): Great base for us to explore London - This apartment worked out very well for us. The Euston train station (where we arrived from Glasgow) is a 15 min walk away and the Russel Square tube station (on Piccadilly line which we took to LHR when we left) is very close. The apartment is as described. We were in #7 on the top floor during a heat wave. AC would have been nice during the day but we knew it wasn't available and we were fine in the evenings and for sleeping. Another bowl would have been nice. At breakfast we had to share the single one provided :)
• Helen (10/5): Exceptional -
• Parker (8/5): Very good -
• Toru (9/5): Clean and convenient - Good access to nearby locations such as supermarket, especially British museum. Can walk to St Pancras. The host is so responsive and facilities are good, laundry. No lift.
• Boriana (10/5): Exceptional - Nice apartment with everything needed for comfortable stay of 4. Easy key pick up from a lock box. Tube station and a grocery store near by. Some steep steps, but we didn't mind.
• Claire (9/5): A good location for a quick trip - Location was great and facilities were good The decor is a little tired. Lots of stains on the bedroom carpet, lock damaged on apartment door and paint damage to the window sills
• Sumanth (7/5): Good apartment in the city - Location is spot on for GOSH and also for sight seeing around London. Steps to get to the apartment. Its on the top floor. no lift. its ok if you dont have any luggage. or very young children.
• Zhang (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was perfect for our stay! It’s very close to my school, in a quiet and safe neighborhood. Both the tube and bus stations are just a short walk away, which made getting around super convenient. The flat is well-equipped, and they even provided us with a UK power adapter — such a thoughtful touch! The only small downside is that it’s on the fourth floor with no elevator, and the last stairs are quite narrow — a bit tricky with big suitcases.
• Tammy (10/5): Exceptional - Home from home , everything I needed for a great stay , location great , near tube or easy walking distance to everything . Very trust worthy too as left my phone behind and was contacted so I could collect before my journey home , so grateful . Will be back again wonderful owner Thanks 😊 Notbing loved it will be back again

• Nicole (9/5): Superb - It's so cosy and had plenty of room, really easy to find and close to the threatre. So many stairs
• Anna (10/5): Great location, clean unit, easy access to London restaurants and attractions. - The apartment was perfect for a group of 4 for a weekend. The mgr was very accommodating and easy to work with. Nothing
• Sean (7/5): Solid place for a couple nights - good value - Excellent location, very quiet, good communication with host, kitchen was a nice perk. Beds were clean and comfy. Toilet flush needed constant fixing - had to open toilet to stop it from running after every use, previously used kitchen sponges and towels, no face clothes for bath. Dirty round all the corners. Needs a deep clean.
• Haji (10/5): Exceptional - Location is just perfect. App was very clean and well equipped.
• Duangpun (9/5): Great - Location The room is on the third floor. It is quite inconvenient for carrying the big luggage

• Chape55 (9/5): Superb - Cozy and convenient place to stay in London. We enjoyed our stay. They have a washing machine and a dryer which are very nice for staying a long time there.
• Olliver (8/5): Great value for a central London flat - Generous proportions, plenty of space. You can control the temperature. Very peaceful at night. Nobody above - it’s the top flat. Only 1 towel supplied per person. No shelf space in bedroom, only wardrobes. Not enough hangers if you wanted to stay more than a few days.
• Supriya (10/5): Amazing stay - The apartment was very well located - walking distance to eateries, the tube and some tourist sites. Well maintained and very clean. Comfortable and quiet.
• Christopher (7/5): great location, very reasonable price, with WIFI I would 100% return - I could not connect to WIFI, this was most inconvenient for work purposes
• Mcgowan (10/5): Perfect location, clean apartment, great communication with the host - We had a great stay here. The host was very helpful and responsive, the check in was smooth. The apartment was very clean and neat, with comfortable bed. When I am in London I know where to stay. 3rd floor without lift.
