Should have been better.

The owner of the apartment is very nice, friendly and tries very hard to please, unfortunately we wanted a "holiday apartment", this apartment was too well lived-in, very tired, with too much clutter eg. 2 huge tables with computers, 2 very tired uncomfortable lounges, no proper dining table or chairs. No TV and being on the 4th. floor a lift that occasionally worked, not ideal for elderly folk or those with health issues. this issue could be fixed quickly if someone made an effort.

Cosy functional flat in a great location

This flat was small but had everything we needed as a family of three on our visit to London. Location was convenient, and the host was extremely helpful and friendly.

Don't stay here

Host left us waiting 2 and a half hours on the street for access because his phone was off. Host does not communicate well through VRBO. We booked for three adults but the third bed was a very short futon style couch with raised ends and a bar down the middle. It was impossible for an adult to sleep on. My daughter ended up sleeping on the lumpy couch. Hot water went off every other night. Linens were stained. There is a lot of road noise as it's on a busy street . I would definitely not recommend this listing.

Decent place, good location

Location is great. About 3/10th mile to Earl’s Court tube station, and 4/10th mile to Gloucester Road station. We walked home as late as 10pm and never felt unsafe. Close to 3 grocery stores, and lots of little restaurants. Apartment was adequate. Small kitchen with small fridge, microwave, and stove - we could whip up a breakfast and have a cold drink when we got in. We were there for 11 days, but spent little time in the apartment other than sleeping.

Super emplacement, bel immeuble

Emplacement super pour un séjour tambour battant à Londres. Toutes les commodités à côté (supermarchés, pubs, pharmacie, commerces, etc.), le bus au pied de l'immeuble, le métro à moins de 5 minutes avec 2 lignes permettant de se rendre rapidement dans l'hyper centre. Immeuble londonien typique et magnifique, très beau quartier autour de Earl's court. Appartement fonctionnel avec tout ce qu'il faut. Et l'hôte, Stephen, super disponible et accueillant. Excellent rapport qualité prix.

About the host

I work from home very close to where the apartment is located, running a small business, letting and managing properties for my own personal clients.
Having worked in the business more than 15 years, I am quite familiar with this property, which belongs to one of my clients who lives abroad.
