Wonderful location, and clean comfy place

It really was a wonderful location, only 10-15 from Buckingham palace and Big Ben. The place was stock with all the basics you could need and was clean and comfy. The owner was great at communicating. Will definitely stay again!!!

It fit our requirements

Solid apartment in London. We enjoyed our stay. Close to Buckingham Palace and the Thames. Could use some updating. Everything was good but not great. BTW when they talk about the stairs they are not joking…abled body people only.

Fantastic home and location

We had a great stay this December in this home. It was super clean, well equipped and updated and decorated lovely. Host was very communicative during our stay and answered any questions we had. The location is fantastic. We loved the pub across the road and it’s within walking distance of the river and sights. We plan on staying again in the future.

Great stay!

We truly enjoyed our stay! Loved the location and easy to get around the city. The property layout worked well for our family of 5. Received quick communication and appreciated our accommodations and ability to get into the property a few hours early. Would stay here again if we make it back to London! Thanks!

Christmas Week Stay in London with Teens

We arrived on Boxing Day and stayed through New Year's Day! This was the perfect location! You are steps away from the action in Central London, But this street is quiet enough that you can get some sleep. We traveled with our family of 5 -- and the teenagers all had their own bed. The flat has quite a few stairs as it's on the 3rd level and there are some creaks and squeaks, but it adds to the character. Nayara and Justin were easy to deal with and made me feel better about everything with quick responses -- as this was my first time to London.

Great spot!

This was our first time in London. We traveled with our teenage boys. The location was excellent. A quiet neighborhood with a short walk to Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, Parliament and the London Eye. Lots of options for dining and groceries. The flat was just the right size to give everyone their space and be together as well. The host was very responsive. Couldn’t have picked a better spot.

Location Location Location

The flat is conveniently located in Westminster, just half a mile from Dean's Yard where we had our conference. It’s also an equal distance to iconic spots like Westminster Abbey, Parliament, Big Ben, and even Buckingham Palace. Areas like Mayfair, Soho, and Notting Hill are all within walking distance too. My son and I even rented bikes for a quick ride to Borough Market, which was a blast. Everything was so accessible, and the pub right across the street served decent food and perfectly poured pints. I wish I could have stayed longer for a proper vacation, but being in the heart of it all allowed us to mix work and play without sacrificing sleep!

Our London Vacation

We stayed at the property for two weeks during our vacation in London. The location was amazing, and the apartment was very accurate to the listing. Our only issue was the water pressure; if both showers ran simultaneously, the water pressure was very weak. My family would stagger shower times, and we had no issues. The owners communicated very well and let us store our luggage at the apartment on our first day until check-in. They also stocked the fridge with the groceries we requested before arriving, which was awesome! If we ever come back to London, we will stay here again!

Great location

The best thing about our stay was how convenient to everything this apartment is. Westminster and the Big Ben are just a few blocks away. There is a market, pubs, and cafes down the street. The beds are comfortable, and the showers roomy. Be aware that you do have to climb 3 sets of stairs, and that it can be noisy if you’re a light sleeper. However, they do provide ear plugs if needed. I don’t use them.

Cute, clean, little flat in a great location

This was a great location for our short stay in London. There was one minor challenge for us to work around. The washer/drier machine is very small. We should have done laundry each night instead of waiting until the last night of our stay. We could only clean a small amount of our clothes in the flat. Luckily, there is a laundry across the street that we were able to easily use instead. Otherwise, we were happy with the space and location!

Perfect place to stay!

We had a fantastic stay at this wonderful 3-bedroom apartment! The location was unbeatable, offering easy access to the best spots in town. The host was incredibly kind, accommodating, and always responsive to our needs. The apartment itself was spacious, clean, and well-equipped, making our stay incredibly comfortable. Nayara was an amazing host! She kept reaching out to make sure we had everything we needed and we were okay! She was not only accommodating but went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. From providing helpful local tips to being exceptionally responsive to our queries, her hospitality was outstanding. Her genuine warmth and care made our trip extra special. We’re immensely grateful for such a remarkable host. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended!

Disappointed

Let me start by saying that I have waited so long to review thinking the vision would fade. We were told we could check in early and leave our bags , when we arrived after a very long flight , I had to guess what apartment was ours as no one would respond. The cleaning lady came late and that would have been fine but when we returned at almost 4pm she was still there . She was very apologetic and I ask her to just leave the rest as we were exhausted. It says that there is “air conditioning” not exactly ….the windows where up and it registered 85 with fans on and there where two stand up air units in each bedroom ,only two of them , the third one and the living, kitchen area was almost unbearable. After all of those things , I could have still let it go … BUT there were 32 steps 4 small sets and very narrow , old ragged carpet leading the way . The ad states two small areas of stairs ….No …there are 32 steps leading to this basically old attic that had been transformed to an apartment. Location excellent if you are just wanting someplace to lay your head and don’t care about stairs or it being so hot We have traveled all over the world and this is the only bad review I have ever left . With what they charged us , they can afford to put air in each room and redo the stairs at a minimum We have rentals on the beach in the states and in Italy , I would never rent in that shape.

Fun Quick Stay in London

We made a quick trip to introduce our daughter to London. The location is perfect. Close to most of the major tourist attractions: Big Ben, Parliament, the Abbey, the Eye and even Buckingham Palace. Plus many more. The place is clean and was roomy for 3. Living room couch is not comfortable and would be tight for 3 adults but perfect for parents and one kid. It is fairly loud inside the apt. Roof noise at night, sounded like pigeons having a rave that woke us up most nights. Not sure how else to describe it but they were just walking around or fighting and their feet were clanking and their cooing was fairly loud in the quiet of the night. We heard it in the main bedroom my daughter said she never heard it in her room. You could also hear others talking in the other apts but the noise wasn’t terrible but just wasn’t used to that type in of ambiance noise so took little time to get used to it. Over all totally a great place to stay but if a light sleeper you may want to take a white noise machine to drain out the noise at night.

Overall, it’s a good spot to stay. But they could use a deep cleaning, specially in the bathrooms. Good experience, I would look for more options during my next visit to London. A LOT of stairs.
