Great location

Enjoyed our stay. Flat was in a great location, was clean and had all that we needed for our stay in London. The check in was wonderful and Monika walked us through all that we needed to know for our stay. She was very helpful and kind. The only thing you should be aware of is there are two fights of stairs so if you are handicapped this would not be the best location for you to stay

Fabulous Trip from Jayne USA, South Carolina

We had a magical trip to London. We did everything on our bucket list. We loved this home. The guys loved the pubs nearby after a busy day of sightseeing. The girls enjoyed Aer blowdry bar that kept us looking our best all week. We had a very safe place to stay with market shopping and coffee bars nearby. We were a hop skip and a jump from the underground and know that if we ever return to London we would not hesitate to stay at this place again.

Good but...

Firstly, there is nothing wrong with this apartment - it's small but ok for two people. My major problem was that the listing does not state it's a basement apartment - this means below surface level in London with the windows peeking over the pavements. I would never have stayed here had i know that. However, upside is very efficient team on the ground. And..it's also really not luxury. i would describe it as comfortable.

Beautiful Apartment in South Ken

We loved the apartment with its modern, elegant décor, private terrace, views of the lawn and trees in the adjacent communal garden, and birdsongs. The apartment is on a quiet side street in the heart of South Kennsington. We walked around the corner for the best, inventive Spanish tapas we have ever had, as well as an excellent Michelin-starred French restaurant. A top-notch butcher, small grocery store, helpful wine merchant, and superb French boulangerie with croissants, etc. were also nearby. A short walk took us to the South Ken shopping district, the Victoria and Albert Museum, and the South Kennsington Underground stop that took us anywhere else we wanted to go. The kitchen was well-supplied, and beds were comfortable. Room-darkening curtains in the master bedroom were a nice touch, given that we like to sleep in a dark room. Since our teenage son decided not to come on the trip, we used the other bedroom as a dressing room. We highly recommend this apartment.

Misleading description of apt.

Half bath was miserable-tiny, tiny sink with glass shelf tilted downward which blocked access. Toilet seat moved all over, even after supposedly fixed following complaint. Not allowed to use large garden pictured in ad. Washer/dryer was terrible. Was told dryer wouldn’t dry clothes and should hang them. Only positive - location was great. Would not recommend the apt. though.

Fantastic location!

This review is a bit late but we stayed for 6 nights at the beginning of April. It myself, my husband, and 18 year old niece. Management was great to deal with and were very flexible when we had to make some changes due to pending train strikes. Located in a residential neighborhood, it was a lovely (less than 10 min) walk to Gloucester Road tube stop. While you are not in the thick of things, the tube stop is on the best tourist lines (Circle, District, and Piccadilly) so convenient to everything. Picadilly takes you to Heathrow without having to change. There is also a Waitrose at the tube stop so you can get groceries. This is London so there are stairs to be managed down into the flat and up to the cute garden which was the initial selling point. (Very Notting Hill which made my niece very happy.) Loved having two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Plenty of space for 3 and kitchen was nice to have for breakfasts. Would definitively stay again!

"Marvelous" is a bit strong, but it is pleasant and we were given a very nice reception. The second bathroom was not what we expected - no shower and a tiny sink. We were glad our companion had cancelled. But the location was just what we wanted, the street was quiet, and I did enjoy the garden. The apartment is very well equipped. We especially appreciated the laundry facilities. We love the South Kensington neighborhood and found the transportation around the city to be easy.

Stylisch, komfortabel in guter Wohngegend

Wir haben uns in dieser sauberen Unterkunft in ruhiger gehobener Lage zu fünft wohl gefühlt. Die sehr gute Verkehrsanbindung (Bus, Bahn) und guten Einkaufsmöglichkeiten (Waitrose und Tesco) haben uns unsere Ausflüge innerhalb und außerhalb von London enorm erleichtert. Die Küche war mit vielen praktischen Details ausgestattet und hatte ausreichen Besteck, so dass wir auch die Spülmaschine nutzen konnten. Vielen Dank an Alex und Monika

Relaxing flat in a great location

Wonderful location, beautiful neighborhood and nice flat. Great choice for up to 2 couples, we decided against adding a fifth guest on the sofa bed. It would have been too cramped.

Great flat. Watch for upcharges

This was a great flat in a convenient location for seeing London. Lots of restaurants and coffee shops close by. The host communication prior to the stay was slow, then a bit rude. We originally booked for 4 guests. The flat has only two beds and a pull out sofa. Since our "kids" are adults, we would have used all beds including the sofa for 4 of us. We added a 5th about 2 weeks after we booked. The host informed us that we would have to pay $235 pounds extra for the extra guest! When questioned, he claimed it was "required by VRBO" for "extra linens". I host a VRBO so i know this to be untrue. He was slow to respond to my questions, then was rude when I questioned the explanation as to why linens for on extra person would be that much. As it was we still used the same linens and towels, and actually paid $235 extra for two adult siblings to share a double bed. We made it work b/c we had to. Small flat but very clean. Housekeeper that checked us in was lovely. Except for the host communication and the misleading info on the listing, it was the perfect place.

Quiet neighborhood close to tube

This property worked out great for your family. The tube was a quick walk away (I think 7 minutes) meaning most of the places we wanted to see were within 30 minutes. I really liked the floors in the unit. I thought meeting someone personally at the unit was a bit cumbersome but on the positive when we couldn't find a hairdryer the representative quickly went out to get one, which was appreciated. Surprisingly, this property was quieter then the place we stayed at in Buford. It is a basement unit but we had no issues with noise from above.

Comfortable, Convenient, and Attractive

The apartment is in a very convenient location with an underground station nearby as well as restaurants, grocery stores, and chemists. It is well furnished and equipped. We appreciated having someone meet us at the apartment when we arrived so that we could get instructions on how to use the appliances and lock up and unlock the entrance doors. We very much enjoyed our stay.

Great location with spacious rooms

Great location in south Kensington. Flat was in a safe nice neighborhood less than 10 minutes walk from Gloucester Road tube station. Also close to grocery stores. Rooms were very spacious for our family of four. Kitchen was well equipped for simple meals (breakfast). Make sure you contact the property manager at least one hour ahead of your arrival so they can be there to check you in.
