Guest Reviews
- Lorraine (9/5): The stay was amazing. Earls court station was 12 minute walk and it got us to the very where we wanted to go. Nads was a - Felt homely with a kitchen and washing machine Had no dryer
- fer junior (10/5): - Situación, ubicación... Tal vez el baño pequeño
- Francesco (5/5): Siamo stati bene perché la posizione era comoda. Ma la prossima volta cambieremo struttura - Piaciuti la comodità della posizione, la vicinanza alla metro, il quartiere bello, sicuro e piacevole Pulizia decisamente da rivedere; e magari andava anche specificato che era un basement perché le foto non lo facevano capire. Comunque, soprattutto dita di polvere su vari mobili, anche se il letto era pulito. Bagno un po' angusto
- Amanda (8/5): -
- Peter (10/5): A wonderful place with a comfortable living space - Great location Nothing
- Justin (8/5): -
- Meng-jie (10/5): - Beautiful apartment, very friendly staff.
- Martha (9/5): Great stay - Comfortable, great location, friendly staff
- Berit (9/5): Charmante, sehr besondere Bohemian-Künstlerwohnung im Souterrain - Was schon auf den Fotos auffällt: es gibt viel interessante Kunst an den Wänden, die Räume sind im studentischen "Bohemian-Stil" eingerichtet. Der Eingang zur Souterrain-Wohnung befindet sich unter dem Haupteingang zum Haus (siehe Foto). Das Wohnzimmer ist ein schöner Wintergarten. Das Schlafzimmer hat kein eigenes Fenster, es führt jedoch eine Glastür zum Wintergarten, die schönes Licht hereinlässt und so kann man auch lüften. Diese Glastür verfügt über Verdunkelungsrollo und Vorhang, sodass es auch nach Sonnenaufgang morgens abgedunkelt ist, wenn man das möchte. Sehr schön ist der Garten, es steht dort ein lauschiger Essplatz zur Verfügung, was im Sommer bestimmt großartig ist. In der Wohnung stehen viele kleine Topf-Pflanzen, auch Selbstanzüchtungen. In der Küche haben wir alles gefunden, was wir brauchten - sogar Eierbecher. Auch ein Korkenzieher ist da.
Die Wohnung war für uns Anfang März anfänglich etwas schwierig zu heizen. Es hat aber mit Hilfe aller vom Vermieter zur Verfügung gestellten Heizquellen geklappt (Ölofen, Püster), insofern hatten wir es dann schön warm. Wir haben uns in den vier Tagen in dem Apartment immer mehr zuhause gefühlt. Die Gehzeit zu den U-Bahnen beträgt etwa 15 Minuten. Die Station "Earl's Court" fanden wir am besten, es kam uns am nächsten vor. Zudem geht man schön durch eine altehrwürdige englische Wohngegend und die Anbindung dreier U-Bahn-Linien. Der große, gut sortierte Supermarkt Tesco ist in 8 Minuten von der Wohnung aus zu Fuß erreichbar.
Extrem hervorzuheben ist die Leistung der Agentin/Betreuerin Nads. Sie hat sich von A bis Z großartig gekümmert. Ihr gilt unser ganz großer Dank! Tipp an den Landlord: Die Wohnung müsste mal dringend gründlich gereinigt/geschrubbt und renoviert (Tapeten, Fugen, Heizkörper im Bad usw.) werden. Es ist ziemlich abgewohnt.
- Ileana (10/5): A very nice place! - Appartement très agréable et confortable, net et bien équipé. Les propriétaires sont très sympathiques et arrangeants. Nous étions trois pour trois jours et avons bien dormi. Le quartier est très agréable. Je recommande fortement !
- KHALID (10/5): -
- Urbani (8/5): -
- Sander (9/5): Great value for money - Great location, easy access to tube and busses. Supporting host, all questions we had were answered immediately. Were able to check-in early and leave our suitcases on the last day. Nothing.
- Jean Louis (8/5): - Emplacement
Réactivité et amabilité de l'hôte
Équipement cuisine lave linge / séche linge Mauvaise isolation phonique par rapport à la rue
- Biagio (10/5): -
- Sophie (9/5): Parfait pour ce que nous attendions - La propreté, l’agencement ingénieux, les voisins calmes, l’espace pour Londres, la situation, le lit confortable et les renseignements/accueil des hôtes.
- Frederic (9/5): Excellent sejour - L appartement est propre et calme
Super quartier très tranquille
Magasin et station bus a 5mn à pied Rien
- Jo (9/5): Great start to our trip. - Location great, everything we needed in the compact space. Loved being near to all the supermarkets! Vote for Waitrose!! Walking distance (longish) to south Kensington and the amazing museums. Quick response from staff when I couldn’t figure out the tv.
As Australians everything is expensive so being able to do washing and try the meals (£15 pound 3 courses for 2 from waitrose!, others like tesco have even cheaper offers ) using the kitchen was great.
- Lawrence (9/5): -
- Peter (9/5): Great stay.Excellent hosts - Comfortable and well appointed. We had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Hosts were excellent. Nothing
- Claudio (10/5): Davvero una gemma - Appartamento accogliente e pulitissimo situato in una zona splendida, a 10 min dalla stazione metro di Earl's Court e confinante con Holland Park. Permette di raggiungere luoghi come Notting Hill e South Kensington tranquillamente a piedi se si ama passeggiare. Apprezzatissime le piccole gentilezze dell'host. Nulla.
- Aymeric et virginie (8/5): - L emplacement est top !
La literie est confortable
Il y a des odeurs de remontés d égout pas très agréable
Manque de luminosité
Sinon tout était très bien
- Carol (10/5): We loved our stay . Really appreciated Nads help with misplaced keys - Location was good , lovely street . Kensington high street very close . Nads provided plenty of advice on tube stations and good food shops etc
- Braint (9/5): - Alles was aanwezig, van koffiezetapparaat ( inclusief pads ) tor strijkijzer en strijkplank.
Ook superhandig dat je ( tegen betaling) een parkeerplaats kan reserveren naast de accommodatie.
- matthew (9/5): Excellent and perfect place to setup as a homebase for our visit to London. - The beds were very comfy. The location was excellent and clost to all buses and the railsystem. There was some sewage smells that would periodically come into the apartment.
- Trevor (3/5): Tacky and in need of tidying up. - Location. Close to most forms of transport. Poetic license was done with the photos of the property. We were led to believe we had a garden, but on arrival we were below road level in one room. Also, a lot of the reviews refer to a bath, the "Studio" didn't have a bath, the bathroom itself, was only the size of a bath and the whole time we were there absolutely reeked of stale urine. Overall a very unpleasant experience. We have been doing these reviews for over 10 years, and we have to say, this place has not been the best by a country mile. I would urge Booking. Com to check more thoroughly the honesty of some reviews.
- Nataliia (8/5): -
- Carmen (9/5): It was a very nice, clean studio-apartment, we would go again. - The apartment is in a lovely neighborhood with nice restaurants and cafés. It is all very easy to reach (tube, bus, grocery stores and restaurants etc.). Our host Nads was very friendly and helpful.
- Ben (9/5): Superb -
- Kell (9/5): Would recommend to couples. A family of three who want an accessible location to things. - This was an awesome stay. Close to train station and many other things in range. Nadine and her partner were lovely and responded in a timely fashion to my questions. There was nothing to not like. Spacious inside, nice bathroom. Good kitchen area.
- Suzette (9/5): Very good on the whole. - Location, garden, living room. Bathtub is very deep, so hard to get in and out, especially as there’s no rail.
No dryer, so clothes took a long time to dry
- David (9/5): A great place to stay, with a super helpful and responsive host. - Great location in a residential neighborhood, with easy walks to transport, grocery stores, restaurants, and lovely parks. Great for a short stay in London. Nothing other than the small shower.
- Maria (10/5): Exceptional - Nadine was perfect!! She immediately responded to our request!! Nothing
- Renee (9/5): A nice flat in Kensington that made a nice home base to see Kensington and central London. - Located within easy walking distance of several bus stops. Nice neighborhood. Has a kitchenette and full size refrigerator which made this a nice home base. Street noise.
- Robbie (7/5): The stay was ok just needs some improvements as listed above. - Location and queen bed The shower water temperature needs to be hotter. The road traffic noise was bad until 10 pm. Only electrical outlet was only located behind the oven
- Vanessa (7/5): Location was perfect, good bed and well equipped apartment; very communicative and helpful owners -
- Baxter (10/5): Fantastic bright flat for a long weekend in West London. - Perfect setup for two friends, wonderful location, fully equipped kitchen, nice back garden.

Highly recommend for a memorable stay. We can't wait to return! We should have extended our stay; London's vibrancy is captivating. The flat's proximity to central attractions, restaurants, and High Street Ken, just 5 minutes away, made it even more convenient. Hyde Park, the Serpentine, and major museums were all within easy reach.
