Guest Reviews
- Karel (9/5): -
- Claudia Marcela (9/5): - Muy bien ubicada y bien equipado. Bien las dimensiones del departamento. Hay que subir tres escaleras hasta la puerta de entrada del departamento, con valijas grandes se complica
- ydisel (10/5): -
- Clino (4/5): Struttura che non consiglio - Solo la posizione Non funzionava il termosifone in bagno. Segnalato subito ma al di là di domande a chiarimento non sono intervenuti. Il resto era difficile da comprendere nell'utilizzo. Il divano letto molto difficile da aprire. Il lavello del bagno veramente microscopico.
Insomma una struttura che non rende la vacanza agevole.

- Maria Esmeralda (10/5): - La propiedad, es seria, y envía mensaje para comunicar los datos personales y el mismo día de entrada se comunica contigo para dar las indicaciones de Check-in y el día de salida también manda instrucciones de Check.out, todo muy fácil.
La zona es muy tranquila. La ubicación es perfecta, para moverte a pie. Todo está muy cerca. El alojamiento es pequeño, pero tiene todo lo necesario, muchas ventanas, iluminación, calefacción, ventilador, cocina con hervidor de agua. Me sentí muy cómoda.
La parada de Bus frente, (RED LION), una en cada carril, muy bien comunicada, la línea 38, cada 10 min. con Estación de Tren Victoria, Para ir al aeropuerto Gatwick (anden 15 al 18, linea de tren normal 35 minutos y una media de menos de 20 Libras p.p se paga con tarjetas de crédito contact less, una por persona), y el metro a 5 minutos, estación Holborn.
Me hubiese gustado saber todo esto antes de ir, por eso se los adelanto.
( La escalera es bastante pendiente y no tiene ascensor, )
- Cortes Maria (9/5): - Ubicación excelente, apartamento cálido y atención muy buena por parte del anfitrión.
- ydisel (10/5): - Tesis çok merkezi ve yeterli konforda
- catherine (8/5): - Location. Clean. Easy to access and great communication 👌 Zero storage. Wardrobe was filled with cot, highchair and hoover. No drawers or alternative space and little room for suitcases. (Who would bring a baby up here??)
- Fiona (9/5): -
- Cécile (10/5): - Bon emplacement, literie confortable, propre, facile d’accès mais au 3e étage sans ascenseur Contrairement à ce que dit l’annonce, il n'y a ni lave-vaisselle ni lave-linge.
- Cyprien (8/5): - un appartement bien équipé au coeur de londres dormir dans le canapé du salon qui donne sur une rue très bruyante. les fenêtres n'isolent pas beaucoup du bruit
Le détecteur de fumée s'est déclenché dès qu'on a fait griller des tartines ou cuisiné. rien de bien inquiétant mais la première fois ça surprend !
- PASCAL (8/5): - Emplacement Rue bruyante. Lit inconfortable. Des poussières.
- Ugnė (10/5): -
- Kae (9/5): いい場所にある実家みたいでホッとするアパート - 場所が良かったのと、実家みたいな暖かい雰囲気でした。ベッドも寝心地良かったです。 ドライヤーはあったのですが、どのコンセントで使えるのかが結局不明でした。
- Marina (8/5): - Perfecte locatie! There was a hairdryer, but it had a US connection instead of an English one. When I inquired about this, I was told I needed an adapter. It's pretty strange that a hairdryer doesn't work with the standard connection.
- RAUL (8/5): -
- Helen (8/5): -
- Alexandra (9/5): Clean and central - It was clean and comfortable. The shower was good.
Great location. It was noisy but, then again, it is right in the centre of London so that’s to be expected.
- Mehdi (8/5): Very good - The location
Easy to get in
Clean Noisy for both rooms, not very soundproof :
The saloon is road side and busy (I have to use earplugs)
The room is next to AC or extractor who works all day long
- Edward (8/5): Very good -
- Marcelo (9/5): Todo excelente, pero tres pisos por escalera. - The location is excellent, close to the subway, there are bus lines in all directions. You can walk to Covent Garden, Piccadilly Circus, Soho, Oxford Circus, the city and the train stations in a few minutes.
Excellent heating.
We stayed for 8 days and they gave us a cleaning service, very attentive. The stairs!! three floors up narrow stairs. Not suitable for people with mobility difficulties or advanced age.
- Petra (10/5): Exceptional - great location
- Alannah (7/5): Great location, No frills. - Great location, and fast responses from the property owner/manager. Large space. Unit has everything you need, including a functioning/well equipped kitchen (fridge, freezer, range, cookware). Bright space! SO many stairs--it's a 3rd floor walkup. Of course it's to be expected in a heritage building. It's just tricky when you have heavy luggage!
The bed is a murphy bed, so it's small and stiff. No bedside tables to plug in phones or lamps, to place eye glasses etc.
Furniture could use a good steam-cleaning :)
- Rasa (10/5): Exceptional - No complaints. Everything was as described
- Ari (8/5): Very good -
- Khadija (9/5): The location was really nibe and the apartment was comfortable - The location was perfect The quality of the bedding and towels
- Fiona (10/5): Great! -
- Jana (1/5): Fraud!! Be careful!! - Be careful!
it’s a fraud They doublecharge you under a different name.
- Akshay (1/5): Stay away from this property! - Stay away from this property. Horrible, traumatic experience. We had 2 men try to aggressively break in to the apartment on the second morning of our stay. Due to the safety issues, we had to check out early. Delayed, cold, unempathetic and insincere response from the property manager and refusal to offer any refund or support. Extremely poor customer service from both the property manager and Booking.com. Significant safety concerns. Do not stay here.
- Yingting (10/5): Exceptional -
- Özgür (9/5): Good choice! - We had doubts as this apartment had too few evaluations in the booking.com web. But when we arrived, we noted that the apartment looked exactly as in the photos. It was newly renovated and clean (unlike many other apartments in that price range in city centrum). Considering the last minute discount also, was definitely a good value for the price. I stayed as a mother with two young boys, and we felt very much home and secure. We stayed on the third floor, the noise was possible to hear from the street a little especially in the nights, but was not disturbing at all (which is always the case in London centrum, with old buildings). The kitchen is sufficiently equipped (coffee machine, oven, a big size refrigerator, freezer, etc), also a hairdryer, iron, vacuum-cleaner, etc. anything you may need was available. The location is excellent, you may walk to most famous attractions but if you prefer not to, the busses in front of the door take you there in few minutes. The supermarket Sainsbury's is just 2-3 minutes walk, so easy! The bed is comfortable but is not really large, 140 cm. We didn't hear anything from the neighbours, neither have seen any of them. Well guided by the e-mails of the apartment owner, all went very smooth! The tab in bathroom is small and there was no place to put tooth brush, toothpaste or make-up stuff. There was some generator like noise in the bedroom in the nights, but this wasn't really disturbing or making it difficult to sleep. The stairs are narrow and there was no elevator. For us that was also not a big problem. You need to push with your shoulder strongly to open the appartement door, maybe that can be repaired to make it easier for tiny ladies:))
- Petra (9/5): Superb - Good location close to undergrand station, close to all the main attraction of London
- Maurizio (9/5): Superb - Location
