The location of the flat, easy access to public transport, supermarkets and restaurants was definitely 5 stars.We found the flat itself to be adequate for our 4 night stay.
Would recommend if you're looking for a well priced space in London. Lots of quirks with this place but it was clean, and it had a nice hot shower. Lots of coffee shops, grocery stores and pubs within easy walking distance. The listing says that there's a dryer, but it's a drying rack. Not overly important unless you're hoping to clean your laundry before continuing on your journey.

Not clean
The appartement was not clean. The towels were dirty. The bedrooms were okay. But bathroom, kitchen and livingroom were less pleasent as they had probably not be cleaned for some time, apart the floor.

Dated and dirty
Good location but very dated, old run down furniture.
This was the worst apartment I’ve ever rented!! To start with, I open the door and there’s a hole inside the door on the floor. I go into the living room and the furniture is old and gross to sit on. The dining table was ready to fall apart and the chairs did fall apart right under me l! The kitchen smelled very musty, like there was mold everywhere. The bathtub/shower didn’t drain and my sister had to use the toilet plunger to clear the drain, gross!! The owner was going to uber some drain cleaner, but we had to be at the apartment to get it. We tried not to be at the apartment other than sleeping there. The bedrooms were very good sized with lots of storage. The bed in the main bedroom didn’t even have a box spring to fit the mattress that was on top of it! The second bedroom was very good sized but the bed was very hard and not comfortable to sleep on. I will say that the area the apartment is located is very safe and close to all the metro and buses!
Been there with my family on the Halloween weekend. The flat is spacious enough for 4 people. Great area as it's city center and it's very well connected via buses, underground, train etc.
The flat comes with cutlery, plates and towels.
We loved it thank you!
The flat is as described in the listing and the rest of the reviews - a bit shabby but perfectly situated for central London, and clean with comfortable beds. It's just across the road from all of the restaurants and supermarkets in Bayswater, but really quiet.
We had a problem with the boiler but the landlady got it fixed more or less immediately once I had managed to contact her.
Walking up to a cold and sad Council Flat, we were immediately let down. This broke-ass owner left the gas bill lapse, so we had NO Heat or hot-water. Record low temps in London, would have taken a day to heat up. Thats just the beginning. Host tried to cancel with false accusations of underage guests even though we're over 35! I sent VRBO several dozen photos and we were immediately refunded the whole cost.
Maria is a wonderful and responsive host. The apartment is basic and a good value for central London. It has many quirks and isn’t in prime condition, but that is reflected in the price and everything works and is clean. I felt safe in the neighborhood and it was very close to stores, restaurants, and a bus stop.
If I were able to give 0 stars that’s what I would have done. This property was booked months in advance of our trip to London. I started messaging the host a day before our arrival but received no response. We arrived by train to London with still no response. Had to scramble to find alternative lodging for remainder of our trip.
No electricity or water when we arrived. Host did correct quickly. Unit is in a low subsidized building. Lots of on going work going on in unit. Careful upon entry work in entry way could cause twisted ankle

Shabby chic
Very conveniently situated. Appartment clean but dusty. Had to contact the host and she did respond quickly. Bedding clean but old. Would stay there again if host takes on board some of the recommendations made.
We were traveling Europe for 2 weeks and were in London for 2 days/2nights and only needed a place to sleep and shower so we decided on this 2/1.5 flat which was a 6 min walk to Royal Oak Underground Metro and Hyde Park. It was 2 bedrooms with double beds, 1 shower/bath/sink with all the toiletries you need provided and another 1 toilet, full blown kitchen and a dining/living room with working tv with couches. It was safe, quiet, and comfortable.
Only cons I can think of was the bathroom could use a mat on the floor so no one slips or falls. Better dining table as it feels it’s about to collapse. Living room needs a coffee table or side tables near the couches for drinks and to elevate our feet after walking all day but especially after 2 weeks of daily walking.

Not Clean at All
Upon entering the apartment, there was crumbs/dirt all over the floor and sauce splattered on the cabinets. All of the bedsheets were stained and all the mirrors dirty. The shower didn't drain or get more than lukewarm, the toilet barely flushes and no toilet paper was provided. After turning on the boiler the heat did not kick in and we were freezing all weekend. There was basically no instruction from the host. Overall not worth any of the money spent.
We stayed for 3 days in London at Maria’s place. The location is very convenient for maneuvering around London to see all the sights.
A few tips for others who choose Maria’s property for their stay.
In Canadian standards it is on the third floor. We made the mistake of assuming ground was 1 when it is in fact zero, the next floor is 1 and the apartment is on 2.
The Wifi password is in the back of the router located on the table once you enter the flat.
When you are having a shower the taps are reversed from what you would expect. The hot is the “C” tap which is on the right if you are standing in the shower. Let it run for a minute for a nice warm shower.
If you need coffee in the am Arro is just minute away. There is no coffee maker in the suite.
Reading other reviews we were confused the toilet is more than large enough to do your business.
If you are looking for the Hilton move on. If you are able to enjoy London for a bargain jump on it. We would stay here again with our family of 4.
Thank you Maria!
Furniture, tables, cupboards and fixtures (except the TV and Wi-Fi) all seem to be from the bulky waste. They are all broken and dirty!
The whole apartment is dirty! There is dirt on furniture and shelves! It smells like insect spray!
The toilet is so narrow that you can't clean yourself! The bathroom can not be ventilated.
The window in the bedroom has no handle and cannot be closed.
The ceiling lamp in the bedroom hums and flickers.
The apartment door has only a cheap lock.
All in all, unfortunately, a dump.

Clearly a work in progress. But some real issues.
The location is great for exploring the west and rest of the city. Close to tube stations and bus routes. The property is a work in progress which is fine but should be advertised as such. When we arrived I had fix the toilet seat as it moved so much that my kid nearly fell in. After dodging the uncleaned urine on the outside of the toilet I tightened the bolts enough that it wasn’t a danger to my group. This is a cheap fix. There were no instructions on how to turn the heating on and for foreign travelers they would have froze. There were heaters dotted around the apartment that could have been used but didn’t want to use all the electric - see later comment. When we did turn it on, we noticed the boiler was leaking and therefore was a severe health and safety risk. This needs to be serviced ASAP. Or shown to be out of service. After looking around the place I noticed the electric meter only had 8 on there - again foreign travelers would not know how these work or what to do if the electric goes out. A decent set of instructions would help this or loading on enough money to ensure folk don’t get worried. Covering the meter would help too. The cleanliness of the flat left a LOT to be desired. The toilet stank of urine and the toilet was covered in it. The bathroom was dirty and towels were left in a reusable bag - chose not to shower. The previous tenants sheets were left drying on a clothes horse too. The furniture is also worn and damaged. Lots to fix for sure.
The property is in a good location and was comfortable enough for a short stay. The flat could use some significant updating and repairs. Only two of the six 6 power outlets in the bedroom worked.
