DO NOT BOOK HERE!
Let me begin by saying, we weren't even able to stay a single night of our 6-night reservation. The biggest and most glaring con was the heat. We were there during a fairly warm June for London, but not sweltering, in the low 80s. We knew, based on the listing, that there wasn't going to be air conditioning, but had no idea it was going to be so unbearable. There was no fan and only one small window we weren't even allowed to keep open while we slept. I have lived in North Carolina and Virginia without air conditioning, so I know heat. and this was unbearable, especially for the price. As soon as we got into the room and felt how stifling it was, we opened the window and notified the host, and waited a few hours to see if it would cool down. It didn't cool down even a little. The host's suggestion was to go out and buy a fan. Unacceptable. Also, the listing mentioned that the apartment would have basic bathroom toiletries. There was an empty bottle of hand soap and 1 roll of toilet paper for 2 people for 6 days. During our few hours in the apartment, we decided we weren't going to let this VRBO ruin our vacation, so we found a hotel right down the road and were able to salvage our trip. Despite not staying a single night there, the host has refused to give even a partial refund and has ignored any further communication even though the last reviewer got a refund. Lucky them. I've been using VRBO for 10 years, and this is the worst place I've ever stayed. Seems predatory.

Unfortunately our stay at this accommodation didn’t go as planned. We were messaged a few hours prior to arriving to advise the room wouldn’t be ready until 1-2 hours after our advised check-in time, however were allowed to drop our bags at 11am (we arrived shortly after 5am into London - had to pay to store our bags elsewhere). The location is great! Close to transport, dining and parks. This is the only positive we had to say, as we ended up leaving as soon as we got into the room. The apartment is on the 5th floor of a building that has a very narrow staircase. The building isn’t well maintained (notes from residents about rats) and lift is tiny (1 person and a suitcase is a tight fit) and only goes up to the 3rd floor. Getting suitcases up 2 levels via stairs was HARD. We appreciated being allowed to drop our things earlier, but we wouldn’t allow people into our apartment when not clean as it does give a bad impression (hair, rubbish, dirty towels etc. from the previous people). The apartment was very small. The bed had a very thin and soft mattress, thin pillows and the room was very hot (on a cold day). The bathroom was tiny, with black mould everywhere, rusted metal and a toilet that didn’t flush even when held down. We messaged the host and Vrbo ASAP to ask for a refund and didn’t get a reply until a while after, when we had already left for a random hotel around the corner. Very stressful and disappointing. We were thankfully refunded.

Terrific location a few blocks from Paddington; tiny studio up five flights, but great value!
No problems with this flat. Extremely small, no TV (but it had wifi), and at the top floor of a block of flats, which meant a tiring climb upstairs with luggage when the lift - which only goes to 3 of the 5 floors - wasn’t working if someone left the door ajar so it couldn’t be called down. But it was clean, comfortable, superbly located for Paddington station and tube, and excellent value. I would stay here again, but you need to be fit (luckily, I am)! Alon the host was easy to contact, though the listing disappeared from the HomeAway website after I booked and paid for it. This apparently had something to do with a 90-day limit for listing, but all turned out well.

Mary R., Escondido, CA

Not what I expected
There are 97 stairs to get in. There’s a VERY small lift that only goes to the 3rd floor. Two more flights to carry luggage up. Once you’re in, it’s not the quaint brick walled interior I pictured, but cheesy wall paper. It is extremely small. One wine glass and another small glass. Not very well appointed compared to other VRBO flats I’ve rented. The bed was VERY comfortable, however.

Cute + cozy in a great location
We stayed at Alon's property in April of this year and could not have been happier with the experience. The room was a bit smaller than anticipated, but when all you need is a shower and a bed, it worked out great. Very clean and quiet. The bed was comfortable and there were plenty of amenities for our weeklong stay. The neighborhood is beautiful, right across from Hyde Park and a couple Underground stations. We were able to pick up late-night food at a few places nearby on the nights we came home late. Both Alon and his property manager checked in on us midway through our stay to make sure everything was OK, which was appreciated. One word to the wise: the elevator only goes up so far, so you do have to walk up a couple flights of stairs, which was no problem for us but might not be suitable for everyone. Overall, everything was wonderful, we had a great time and would recommend Alon's flat - and we'd stay there again for sure! Thanks, Alon!

Great location in walkable neighborhood
This was such a great place to stay. The place is small/cozy but it is in such a great location. I found the neighborhood to be an amazing place for exploring central London with easy access to many different train lines and the express line to Heathrow. The check - in instructions were super clear and everything went really smoothly. The stairs may be too much for anyone with bad knees or if you're out of shape but the elevator at least gets you up more than half way. The church down the street also has free piano recitals at lunchtime (at least during the summer) and they are amazing. This gem is also within blocks of two or three convenience stores and several restaurants and Hyde Park. I would definitely stay again if I find myself back in London. One day was pretty warm and a fan would have been amazing but opening up the windows helped a bit. Overall, this was a fantastic experience.
