This apartment suited our needs perfectly. Quiet, clean and well equipped. Close to a tube station (Gloucester Road) that runs to Heathrow and connects to the London Underground. Lots of restaurants close by and there is a large grocery store adjacent the tube station. Landlord was quick to respond to any of our questions. Be aware that the flat is near the top of the building and there's no lift. You will get your exercise but it doesn't take long to get used to the stairs.

Alfi was a great host. He was very helpful, pre-check-in and with any questions that we had. The property is in a great neighborhood with easy access to the underground and many good places to eat and shop. The flat had everything you would need, but typical of European flats, the dryer for clothes was a heated towel rack. Note, as the listing states it is on the fourth floor, so you must be able to handle steps.

Great property. Close to the tube and Hyde park. The front room windows look over a charming park. Comfortable queen bed, washer for clothes, good bathroom hot water, windows that open for great breeze and lots of good natural light, tv with all app options, large refrigerator/freezer. You do need to walk up 4 flights of stairs so you need ti be ready to climb.

Nice apartment in great location

Small but nice apartment in the heart of South Kensington. Very accessible and at the same time a great base for everything you want to do in London. Even on foot it is not too far to Buckingham and South Kensington is super as a district, quite relaxed and it is only 5 min to Kensington Garden.

Best location & stunning flat

This really is a lovely flat. The location is perfect just a few minutes walk from the Gloucester Rd Tube station, shopping and restaurants. The meet & greet with the host to pick up the keys was no problem. He was very helpful and quick to reply to any questions we had. Read the property description carefully as the hosts notes there is no lift! We were fine since this meant a good garden view and quite comfortable, well equipped flat. We hope to return one day!

Stunning flat in a perfect location

We have only the highest marks for this great experience. This is a perfect South Kensington location in a vibrant upscale neighbourhood with lovely cafes and shops, and close to major attractions and the tube. The flat is clean, classy and has everything we needed, worth the 92-stair walk-up (which, yes, can be daunting after a full day touring around London!). The bed is SO comfortable! Alfi was an attentive host and helped set us up for a great vacation. Don’t miss the Hereford Arms pub in the area, and make time for the Spitalfields Market to immerse yourself in history while shopping for great deals and amazing food. The Covent Garden market is also great, with plenty of characters and it’s fun poking through the small antiques. (Both are way better than Portobello Rd market in our opinion.)

Great location!

This place and host are amazing! Alfi responded promptly to any questions, and was helpful in offering helpful suggestions and tips for the area! The location is great for getting around all the sights in london, located a few blocks from the tube which is a great way to get around if your wondering, as well as a short walk to several locations! There are groceries, restaurants, and Starbucks just a short walk from here. For reference we are both ladies in early 30s so the walking and area was great for us. The flat is several flights up, it can be challenging to get luggage all the way to the top or all the way down. I’d recommend to pack light and have a great trip! Once you get to the top the flat is light and airy, with great views and quiet. This place is wonderful!

Worth Every Step!

We had a wonderful stay in London at Alfi’s flat! I was in town for a conference nearby and a friend and I stayed for just over a week. Communication was exceptional from booking when he wrote to confirm we were aware of the steps mentioned in the listing. Alfi provided useful directions from the airport and met us personally at checkin. He took the time upon greeting us to provide maps and suggestions for the area, including some excellent restaurant recommendations. (Don’t miss Dishoom!) The flat was impeccably clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect and we enjoyed exploring Kensington Park and the Natural History museum. It was also very close to the tube station for easy access to all major destinations. We didn’t even need to transfer at all. Would high recommend and would definitely return. Thanks Alfi for a wonderful stay!

Beautiful Flat in Charming Upscale South Kensington

This flat is in a beautiful, very upscale area of London with many shops and restaurants but on a charming side street - not over run with tourists (yet very walkable to heavy tourist spots). The flat itself is fantastic: very clean, newer appliances, everything in great condition (NO deferred maintenance, very efficient layout, lots of towels and extra bedding items, all of the apparatus in the flat works really well - door locks, shower, stove, oven, heating, windows, etc). Plus, the owner Alfi is outstanding: rapid communication, highly accommodating, very kind and easy to work with, does not waste any of the renter’s time on coordination, unnecessary details, etc). The flat is perfect for 2-4 people - ideal for a family. There is no elevator/lift which we actually liked.
