The flat was equipped with everything we needed for our stay. It was conveniently located near bus stops and tube stations, as well as grocery store options (Waitrose just across the street, and Whole Foods just a short walk away). Everything was clean and every detail had been considered and provided for. Natalia was very responsive to any questions we had, and very clear and detailed in her communications regarding check-in, check-out, etc. making both processes incredibly easy to follow.

The property is easy walking distance to 2 different underground stations. We were able to get anywhere we wanted to go. Kensington high street is literally around the corner and a supermarket is across the street. Natalia was an excellent hostess who made back up arrangements for us in case we needed help while she was away for a few days. We didn’t need anything because the apartment was set up so well and check in instructions were quite clear. Having a lift is a huge plus for us as we are on an extended trip through Europe and the UK and we have lots of luggage. Despite being so close to a vibrant shopping district, the apartment was quiet. We will come back here on our next trip to London! Bonus, there is an excellent little breakfast/lunch restaurant next door and a barbershop a couple of doors down.
