Plaistow family rentals

Place is lovely and clean and has everything you need. Very close to canary Wharf which is a beautiful place. Would highly recommend. Loverly host 😊

Great location great property . the only minor negative is that the master bed is small

Our family of four stayed for two weeks in this apartment, and overall it served us well BUT there were some significant issues. 1) The flat is on the 4th floor and there is no working lift. according to the neighbours, the lift hadn't been working for 6 months and was probably going to take another 2 months to be fixed. The host emailed us about the broken lift only a few days before our trip - this should have been honestly disclosed in the listing. We could manage stairs but not everyone can... 2) Only one set of keys was provided which was very impractical - especially as whoever was home first had to walk down 4 flights of stairs to let in the others! The door intercom doesn't connect to the flat but goes to the landlord so we had to phone whoever was home to come down, too. 3) the bedroom curtains are very ineffective so the flat becomes light well before 5 am - making good sleep difficult. 4) the kitchen is missing basic utensils - just spending a little money could make it much more liveable and welcoming. A few other details would earn it a good rating. 5) In the ensuite, the basin tap drips which is wasteful and disturbs sleep. This would be a quick fix that is hopefully done very soon. 6) The loungeroom has sliding doors which allows great airflow. There is a balcony rail outside these doors for safety - you can't actually step onto a balcony. However, the proximity to a DLR station and local shop was good. There is no quick food nearby though for main meals.
