Amazing location and great value if you look for a 2BR at a reasonable price.Lovely place with 2 nice-size bedroom, the location is A and the neighborhood is stunning. We stayed for 3 nights and had all the necessities for the stay. There is a washer and dryer, dishwasher and enough kitchen utensils and cookware to stock up for breakfasts or dinners.It was very cosy and quite at night and the location allows for exploration of many of the London neighborhoods worth a visit, including Kensington, Notting Hill. Thank you for letting us visit!

Nice stay

A wonderful location with proximity to the tube and excellent restaurants and shops. The flat itself was pleasant but as some others have said, could be made nicer with some attention to details. Kitchen and bathroom were nice and updated. The bedrooms were small but did the job. I was surprised by the communication with the host as previous reviewers spoke highly of her prompt replies. We sent a few questions and didn’t receive a response. However, she graciously allowed us to check in early and after a long night of travel that was a wonderful gift. Overall, I would stay again especially given the location.

Our stay at this flat was perfect for our 3 nights in London. Although on the compact side, the flat was perfectly located in Kensington with easy access to everything we needed! We also used Julie’s driver recommendation for airport transfers and he was great. Communication with Julie was easy and fast. As others have noted, the flat could use a few updates to make it even better. In addition to new bedding, the rugs in the bathroom could use an upgrade. Outside these minor changes, the flat worked great for our stay.

Great stay for our family

We recently stayed in this London flat which fit our family of 4 great. The host was very responsive and the check in process was clear and simple. The location was fantastic, we found many great places to eat within walking distance, and the underground station is close too. Would recommend to check this place out if you are looking for a place to use as a home-base while you explore the city!

Great location - enjoyable stay

We stayed at this apartment for three days. The location is great - good restaurants close by. Hyde Park at the end of the road and easy walk to Gloucester Rd underground. There was enough room for the four of us adults and the apartment was good and clean. Communication from the owner was fantastic, reponse to our messages very promptly.

Spring Break in London

My two teens and I stayed here for four nights. Our trip was cut short due to circumstances outside our control, and Julie was great. She was very communicative and helpful. She also helped us connect with someone for transfers who was great! I wanted to make sure we were in a good, safe, quiet neighborhood. We could not have been happier. Close to the tube and markets and restaurants. Close to Museums and parks. We would certainly recommend Julie and her flat.

Great rental in a wonderful neighborhood

We stayed here a few nights so we could see London before our cruise. I was thrilled with the neighborhood. We felt safe the entire time, even at night. The location was close to the subway system. And we also could walk to the Victoria and Albert Museum.

Fantastic Stay

Our group of four (two couples) really enjoyed this little flat. Exactly as described in the listing: nice neighborhood, short walk to the underground station, lots of restaurant options nearby. No problems during our stay--had everything we needed, host kept us well-informed and was very responsive. Happily let us stay a few extra hours after our flight was delayed as well. I would be very happy to stay here again in the future.

Great home base location!

This was a great home base for exploring London! What a perfect location! So easy to get to everything from there with public transportation. It was an easy walk to Kensington Gardens and the Natural History and Science Museums. Despite being a “basement” apartment, it was light and airy with all the skylights. The furniture was comfortable. The place was clean and everything was easy to use. We enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Location

We had a wonderful stay in this Kensington flat. The location can’t be beat if you want a quick walk to the tube station or to Kensington High Street, Kensington Palace, Natural History Museum or the V & A Museum. The neighborhood is very quiet and it feels quite safe walking out at night to area restaurants. The flat itself has everything you need with two bedrooms and a full bath with a nice shower. The kitchen was well appointed too. Excellent communication with the owner!

Scenic location

The location was fantastic. Walking distance to station, restaurants , shops and tourist attractions.Steps down to the basement apartment were challenging with luggage in tow. Younger people than us would handle it okay. The apartment was bright and light thanks to the skylights.The lounge, dining and kitchen areas were okay, the bedrooms cramped.Somethings need attention. The shower dripped the whole time we were there, the toilet seat needs to be tightened. Shelving in the bathroom would help with storage of toiletries. Towels and linen need updating. The drawers in the bedroom cupboard were unusable. Small jobs that would make a big difference to the comfort of guests .Julie, the host was always quick to respond to queries and helpful with advice. She was kind enough to let us store our luggage in the apartment until the early afternoon of our departure to the airport.

Quiet Stay

The place was very clean. All amenities listed were present and those used worked. Fantastic Neighborhood, very quiet. My two concerns. Steps down to the entry door are steep, narrow and make a 90 degree turn. Being in our 80's we could handle the stairs using the railing--but taking luggage up and down was a problem. Our Daughter was with us and handled the luggage. Both Queen size beds were against a wall (in different rooms) limiting access to one side and the bottom of the bed.
