- Rune Brinck (8/5): -
- Gavin (1/5): Bad choice for the money, made worse when I wrote to the owner to say he could improve it in a really positive way rathe - Nothing but the location Generally scruffy
Beds uncomfortable and smelly
Headboard on the twin beds which are in the lounge hanging off the wall
Unsafe electrics held together by sellotape
Dirty everywhere
Needs completely redecorating
Freezer full of old food
Just a horrible space that should not be rented or offered through Booking.com
- Pauline (7/5): Prima om te slapen en goede uitvalbasis voor Londen sightseeing - Locatie en bereikbaarheid, appartement was schoon en de host is vriendelijk en reageert snel en behulpzaam. Er is gern comfortabel zitmogelijkheid in het appartement. Er is geen keukenhanddoek of theedoek aanwezig
- Annabelle (5/5): Functioneel appartement - Prima locatie Het appartement was vies, aanrecht plakte, koelkast en badkamer met schimmel
- Gergana (8/5): Спокоен и удобен престой! - Имаше всичко необходимо за престоя ни /без нож за рязане/, което не беше фатално! Апартаментът е близо до удобни транспортни връзки /метро и автобуси/ които ти осигуряват бързо придвижване до всички туристически атракции! В същото време мястото е тихо и спокойно, и може да си починеш добре след дългия ден ходене! Прекалено късно настаняване! Полетът ни пристигна в 7.30ч. на летище Лутън и до 10.30 ч. -11.00ч. бяхме на място сто за настаняване, но се оказа че не можем да се настаним преди 15.30ч! При напускане също твърде рано искат освобождаване /до 10ч./ без възможност за оставяне на багаж! Това налагаше допълнителни разходи за гардеробни за два дни, за четирима души, като се плаща за всеки куфар, раница, сак … В едната спалня имаше мухъл в гардероба и се усещаше лек мирис от влагата…
- Américo Rafael (8/5): Boa localização e com todas as comodidades necessárias. - Com todas as comodidades necessárias. Perto de estação de metro e autocarro. Com bastantes serviços por perto (restaurantes, supermercados) Precisa de renovação de alguns móveis. Alguns pormenores a melhorar como a limpeza e as cortinas podia tapar melhor a entrada de luz solar.
- Hilary (7/5): Comfortable property in a good location. - Comfortable beds and the location was good. No outside noise. I think we should have known before booking that the keys needed to be collected and dropped off elsewhere. I felt like the property could have done with a spring clean (toothpaste on the sink and floors a bit dirty).
- joel (9/5): Très bon séjour dans cet appartement - Nous avons passé un très bon séjour. L'appartement était propre, les lits confortables.
Check in / check out faciles . Communication avec l'hôte rapide et efficace. Lignes de bus directes de la gare de KIngs Cross / St Pancras ( descendre à l'arrêt Windsor Terrasse).
Appartement calme. 3 points d'amélioration possibles :
L'hôte donne l'adresse GPS pour l'appartement et des photos mais il faudrait indiquer que l'immeuble se trouve en retrait de la rue derrière l'autre immeuble qui s'appelle Buxton Court aussi ( mais pas les mêmes numéros d'appartement). En effet, on passe devant cet immeuble sans deviner que l'immeuble où se trrouve l'appartement est juste derrière.
A part cela, je confirme ( suite à un commentaire que j'avais lu ) qu'un torchon pour essuyer la vaisselle serait bien utile.
Pour finir, la bouilloire avait trop de calcaire et la machine à café semble avoir le même problème si on se fie au bruit qu'elle fait mais un peu d'acide citrique peut résoudre facilement ce problème.
- Michaela (8/5): Convenient location for exploring London. - Very good location, close to the Liverpool street station. Bus stop just 2 minutes from the apartment, which was very convenient, also supermarket close by. We had everything we needed. The communication with host was very prompt. Some of the furniture would deserve replacement, like the chairs in the kitchen, but as we were out the whole day, it did not bother us. The apartment was fine for our stay.
- TIMOTHY (10/5): Perfect stay in London - Spacious and immaculately clean and very apartment in a great location with easy transport links Nothing, everything was correct
- Ayaz (8/5): -
- Zsófia (9/5): -
- Marleen (8/5): - Die Wohnung hatte alles wie beschrieben. Die Lage war zentral zwischen den Ubahn Stationen old street und angel, und es gab direkte Busanbindungen. Diverse Shops, Pubs und Restaurants in der unmittelbaren Nähe. Schlüsselübergabe verlief problemlos über einen Kiosk in der Nähe. Das Einzige was ich anmerken kann: vielleicht zwei Handtücher mehr. In der Küche ein Küchenhandtuch und im Bad eins für die Hände.
- Marta (7/5): Correcto - El apartamento está bien situado, tiene muy cerca una parada de autobús y la salida del metro de old street está a cinco minutos andando. Además hay varios supermercados en el camino del metro al apartamento. La zona nos pareció segura y muy transitada. El Check-in y Check-out son muy sencillos y cómodos y el anfitrión se pone en contacto contigo para explicarlos el día de entrada.
Aunque se ve que está muy trotado, todo funcionaba correctamente. No tiene una salita, pero para el tiempo que estábamos en él, con las sillas de la cocina nos fue suficiente.
En general, buena relación calidad precio. La limpieza es justa en el cuarto de baño, dónde no olía bien, creemos que de la tapa de plástico del inodoro que desprendía mal olor. El resto del apartamento limpieza correcta.
No tiene lujos, es un apartamento funcional.
- Iris (8/5): - Fleksibel i forhold til check ind og check oit.
Flink og behjælpelig personale.
Okay stand lejlighed.
Gå afstand fra liverpool trainstation. Evt. nye møbler men ellers ingenting☺️
- Martin (8/5): Great place to stay couple of days in Londen - The location what perfect, 5 minutes walk from Old Street metro station. Also nice graffiti walkingtour and shops like Aldi near metro station. We were there in warm weather, which was fine. There was no recreation room, only small kitchen, with 4 people to stay al little small, also de balcony was small and this chamber has no blackout curtains, keeping the room relatively light.
- Patrick (7/5): Good -
- Joseph (7/5): Good -
- Dana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Roderick (7/5): Basic but great location and has everything you need. - The location was good an easy 5 min walk to Old Street Tube Station with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The key collection was very straightforward and the instructions for finding the flat were easy to follow. This is a minor point but the pillows were terrible. The flat could use some renovation but it had everything you need for a stay in London and I would stay there again.
- Samuel (7/5): Good - Clean, warm, fully equipped, only thing missing was a tea towel to dry the plates/cutlery It would have been useful to leave the key nearly while out (my son arrived later, we had to stay in the flat for him to drop off his suitcase)
- David (1/5): After 44 years of international travel this was the worst and the property should be taken off the market. - Absolutely nothing The facilities were below any standard required for public letting. The shower was frankly dangerous but to top it all the balcony door could not lock and this meant we had to leave and book a hotel for our personal safety
- Anonymous (7/5): Good -
- Douglas (9/5): Superb - Location was excellent, short walk from tube and lots of restaurants nearby. Very comfortable beds, nice powerful shower.
- Neil (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tom (7/5): Good -
- Ged (8/5): Excellent value, brilliant location -
- David (6/5): It was a short notice stay and it fitted the bill but it fell short of most other places I have stayed. - Location quite good for the City On the small side and in need of some refurbishment.
- Nanako (10/5): We felt like a home!! - It was such a nice stay where we can feel like a home.
There are everything what you need to stay for short and long term.Location is perfect to go to center but very quiet place.
Easy to check in and check out.Also we could do early baggage drop.It was so helpful in first day for us.
There are elevator in the building.
Owner is easy to chat anytime by WhatsApp if you have something to ask.
I can recommend you this place to stay in UK. We need to go to supermarket to take a key and back it.It’s around 3 min by walk.But it’s opening 24 hours!
- Holtom (9/5): Was pleasantly surprised by the room, it's a much nicer stay than other options at this price - TV wasn't configured; didn't find a way to watch free channels
- Aaron (9/5): Good location and an easy place to stay. - The apartment is everything you need and the location was brilliant, the nearest tube is Angel and theres plenty of buses passing. Oh and its right opposite a McDonalds!
The communication from the host, Adam, was brilliant and the keys were collected from a secure method from a grocery shop around the corner.
The cleaning lady was lovely and polite and did and does a great job 😀 I was happy with everything.
- Jim (7/5): Good -
- Chidinma (9/5): Fantastic Landlord. Very responsive and nice. - Clean. Had all the facilities we need in the apartment. Eating area too small. No living room.
- Fernando (9/5): Superb -
- Numan (7/5): Good -
- Joe (8/5): Very good - Great place to stay very secure, shops and pubs nearby and Angel tube station about a 10 minute walk.
- Ferenc (5/5): Great host, but basic uncleanness and lack of shading - Adam is a very helpful, communicative and responsive host. Although the property is quiet and doesn't have direct windows on the city road, it's location is excellent: several bus lines and nearby metro lines can help you to get to the city center. The facilities are provided just as they're advertised, the kitchen is nicely equipped for a whole family (also we really liked the personal touches, eg. a couple of capsules for the coffee machine). Wifi was working great. The property is large enough even for a family with 1-2 children. To be honest this property has tremendous potential (see above) but there are a couple of improvements to be done in order to realize it: seemingly this flat is not being taken care of properly, because most of these issues could be resolved within a day.
1. Generic feeling of uncleanness and decay, from the carpet to the fridge (a very strong ammonium like smell was coming from the fridge. Adam was trying to resolve this but unfortunately it didn't really help). There is mold in the bathroom (the bathroom window can't be closed, which makes it quite chilly for the night).
2. Lack of drapers on the front-door window on the internal windows over the doors and the lack of well shading shutters on the windows. If you have smaller children who still needs to sleep mid-day this can be a problem: we suffered even in early April, I guess it's much worse during summertime. Even during the night as the corridor lights are always on, which makes it hard to fall asleep. Strange because Adam has already received a similar feedback last summer and he promised to fix this.
3. The one-person beds feel just simply narrow. Smaller pillows could also be helpful.
Also it was quite strange when the leaser appeared in the flat collecting her mail. Nobody has mentioned that anyone else has access to the flat besides us and the cleaner.
- Cathy (9/5): Nice stay, close to everything! - The flat has a very good location. Public transport, shops and restaurants are in a walking distance. Also, two nice pubs were just around the corner.
The kitchen is fully equipped, good enough for cooking breakfast for 4 people every morning. The flat could use a little renovation here and there. For example, the ceiling in the bathroom has a little mold. The blinds in the twin bedroom are broken and the curtains are too light. We basically couldn't sleep for too long because it got really bright in the morning. And the pillows are too big. But I guess those are luxury problems, because in general we had a very nice time there. Adam was always available to answer our questions and was super nice!
- Xiuqin (5/5): Passable -
- Maria (8/5): Very good -
- Holtom (10/5): Exceptional - Good place, would stay again
- Jerry (10/5): Enjoyed our stay, the apartment was clean and comfortable. - We enjoyed our stay, the apartment was clean and comfortable. It's very closed to the bust stop and tube station, the host was very responsive. A deep corner cleaning is needed.
- Alexandra (9/5): Superb - Quick communication with the host was easy to reach and fast in resolving any issues. The apartment was spotless when we arrived and the lady was very kind to give us a small tour of the apartment and its facilities. Because we stayed on a day where the weather was quite hot, we found it quite hard to sleep on the twin beds. Other than that, the apartment was great.
- 李 (10/5): Exceptional -
- Miklós (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jerry (9/5): Comfortable stay, easy access, value for money. - Easy access, quite room. The host was very helpful.
