Overall, a great experience, and I would stay here again. The location is excellent—safe, well-lit, lively, and close to major attractions, shops, and the subway. The only downside was that the elevators were not working, so going up and down four flights of stairs was inconvenient, especially with luggage or after walking all day. The host was excellent and always communicated clearly, responding promptly to our questions and requests.

A well-located very smart apartment. We were greeted by the host on time. They were very friendly. The apartment is so clean and modern. Powerful shower and comfortable king size bed. The kitchen was well equipped and the aircon was the perfect addition. The location of the property is incredible. A 2 min walk from the Natural History Museum and 5mins from South Kensington tube. We would not hesitate to book this apartment again. Thank you for the great stay.

We were generally pleased with our stay. The location was perfect as we wanted to visit Natural History Museum, Science Museum and Victoria & Albert Museum. Communication with the host was easy. Whenever I messaged them before our stay, they provided detailed information. We were able to communicate easily on the day of arrival, and a member of staff met us when we arrived at the accommodation. I hadn’t actually expected the room to be in the basement, but it was bright, so we didn’t mind too much. There was no noise from outside or from the building, and the atmosphere was peaceful. On the plus side, we didn’t have to carry our suitcases upstairs, as there was no elevator in the building, just as mentioned in other reviews. The room was generally clean. Some areas of the flat needed a bit of maintenance. The kitchen and other areas were well equipped. The internet connection was fast and stable. It’s a place that’s well worth choosing at this price.

4/10 Fair

The property advertised many things amongst which were facilities important for me: a lift (I had heavy luggage) and air conditioning (I was there in May and expecting a warmer month). I had also requested NOT to be in any basement apartment. Nothing was raised to my attention post reservation on line. On my arrival I noted there was no Reception and hence a call was made. I was greeted by Osman who then proceeded to show me a broken-down lift and a room in the basement. I was upset and he placated me by offering a mid week clean and further assistance with my luggage on check out. I then discovered that there were repair works outside my window followed by no water between 11 am to 3 pm the immediate next day! Additionally the apartment 1) lacked kettle 2) incomplete sets of cutlery 3) lack of dishwashing & washing machine tablets 4) insufficient face towels and 5) general lack of a starter kit. Over the next few hours, through different runners, most of the items were replaced/brought in. Thankfully the only thing that worked was the AC as London reached 30 deg heat over the next 3 days! The mid week clean never happened but Osman did send someone to assist with my bags on check out. All in all a truly disappointing service level and facilities. If it weren’t for Osman I would have given this a one star rating. The apt is in a good location, quiet and convenient to stores and public transport as well as restaurants. The rental was expensive but service poor.

The lift/elevator did not work, requiring us to climb 4 flights of stairs with our suitcases. We we're advised to call 30 minutes ahead so someone could meet us there to let us in, which we did, however no one was there to meet us. We were also provided conflicting information by email sending us access codes, but those did not get us into the room either. We had to wait around for someone to bring us a key finally. The washer dryer combo was hard to use and didn't work well. No instructions were provided. And the TV did not work at all. The room itself was nice, the neighborhood was nice, and the staff was very nice.

Pretty expensive for what you get. No elevator. Not the cleanest. They provide one key (even for a party of 4) so if you lock yourself out, you have to coordinate a time to let yourself in. That said, they were responsive.

Beautiful property and very nice apartment. Things they could improve on are pay attention to your property. Examples kitchen chair missing two screws on the seat section causing you to possibly fall backwards if used. Also bathroom vanity door was broken and also missing screw. The Bidet was not in operation at all, no problems from the United States as they are rare. Now for the main reason for the review!! Apartment is on the 5th floor and the elevator is broken or not available for us to use. At age 73 it was a 67 steps challenge. But most importantly there was no hot water supplied to the shower! No way of contacting anyone as phone calls were not answered or in correct. Once. You check in you are on your own with no assistance. We did have help carrying one bag up the stairs.

Location was great but cleanliness could be better. The bathrooms were mouldy and the kitchen was greasy. We couldn’t see clearly from the pictures and the bedroom was separate on a lower floor.

2/10 Poor

I had to wait outside 30 minutes for the person to check me in. There was an alley full of trash next to the apartment building. That was a bad first impression. When we got inside, there was a pillow not sitting correctly on the sofa. I asked about that and he said to not worry, his friend had been there. That set off alarm bells and I felt very uncomfortable about who had access to the apartment. And at the very least, it is not professional to have someone in an apartment that someone is coming to check into. After he left, I looked around and it wasn't clean. There was mold in the bathroom. But my biggest concern was safety. It sounded like to me someone was hanging around in the apartment but it wasn't clear. But I didn't feel good about it. I did ask for a refund but was told that since I didn't complain while I was there, I would not get it. I expected that but as a young woman, I also didn't feel safe complaining to a man checking me in. And I am now getting emails from a different software (Stayz) which is very confusing. I assume the apartment is listed on many different sites. I left the apartment after checking in and stayed at a nearby hotel. The apartment is very tired looking.
