Perfect location, perfect size for 2-3 people. Very clean, comfortable beds, cute kitchen. Great communication with host. Close to train station, safe neighborhood. Easy walk to St. Paul’s and beyond. AC is a huge plus! We would happily stay here again.

Rolf is an amazing and kind person and great communicator.The unit is charming and, providing you understand what to expect in the heart of a huge city like London -good value. The area was full of hidden gems and quite hopping-especially during the week. The double windows he has installed are very effective though so, if we didn’t want to have the hustle and bustle of the pub crowds or the night market inside we just shut the window! My partner and I were able to navigate the area easily and found the bed very comfortable and the bathroom great-two big pieces! We cooked a couple of times easily with the kitchen appliances provided. The small elevator was a huge bonus for travellers!

The apartment was perfect for my daughter and me, and its location near the Farringdon and Barbican tube stops was ideal. It’s a few floors upstairs from a pub, but it’s actually quiet in the apartment due to extra panes of glass that have been installed on the windows. There are lots of restaurants and shops nearby, and grocery stores a short walk away. I will 100% stay here again.

Great flat—just what we needed

The flat was perfect for our family of four. We loved being so close to the Elizabeth line and St Paul’s Cathedral. And the local pubs and coffee shops were very convenient at the start/end of our days. It was great that our kids had separate twin beds. The shower was amazing! And Rolf was very attentive.

Wonderful time

Rolf was very quick to respond with any question I had prior to arriving. We had very detailed instructions about where to go and how to get in just prior to departing from home to go to London. The location was incredibly convenient with regard to getting to anywhere we wanted. I do recommend this place.

Great historical location and proximity to transportation.

Rolf was one of the nicest and most personable hosts I’ve met. I would book with him again in a heart beat. The apartment is situated in a very interesting and rich historical location on the perimeter of London and it’s close to the Farringdon/ Barbican stations. I loved the apartment. It suites a family of four with two teenagers much better than a family with very young children.

Perfect

Check in process was smooth, owners were very friendly, accomodating, easy to communicate. The place was just perfect for us away from home. We have everything we need, just bought groceries and some spices. It was very convenient place, lots of stores, cafe, restaurants nearby, we like to stroll at night, pretty safe as well. There's also a bar down the flat but i don't drink, we just watched live band played. The place is near the oldest parish church in London which was pretty awesome. We also spend sometime at the park which is infront of the apt building. We had a great time in here after a long day walking and exploring. Stayed here for 16 days and we will definitely come back.

The picture was not accurate, the living area had 2 twin beds instead a a double bed and no sofa for sitting, the a/c was a portable unit that really didn’t cool even the main area much less the rest of the apartment. We managed but it’s really a place for young adults who don’t care

Convenient location

This was a great apartment for our week in London. The tube lines are so convenient, particularly the Elizabeth line from Heathrow. Walking distance to so much and a great neighborhood environment. Great pubs right downstairs with great food. The only kind of negative was the Smithfield Market. It was in full swing at 3 am and could get a little noisy. But even that wasn’t that bad. I would absolutely recommend this cute flat.

Close to downtown and St Pauls cathedral.

Overall a good experience staying at this property. Pro’s are that its close to St. Paul’s cathedral, the London tube, Millennium bridge, and several of the other attractions in the area. Also right below is an excellent pub with good food and drink and also right down the street from some good coffee shops. Con’s would be that it is small, which was in the listing, and that it is fair distance away from some of London’s other main attractions. Overall a good place and would recommend but just know what you are getting and where you are located.. Owners of the property were very attentive and that also would be a pro.

A great stay in historic Farringdon.

Great apartment in the heart of historic Farringdon. Who knew about the oldest church in London, the execution of Sir William Wallace and the vibrant Smithfield markets? Not us but we do now. Communication was great. We stayed over Christmas so a lot of pubs and restaurants were closed but we had a brilliant time. You can walk to the Globe Theatre and Tower of London and the new Elizabeth line from Heathrow stops about 150m away. The apartment is London sized but well appointed. We were very happy. Thanks Rolf.

The location is very convenient, walkable from both the Farringdon and Barbican tube stations. The Elizabeth line from Heathrow stops at Farringdon. The neighbourhood felt safe. There is a small lift, big enough for 1 person with suitcases or 3 light people without. The flat itself is very cute and nicely appointed. The bedroom has a double bed with comfy mattress and bedding, three small drawers and a closet with good storage. The kitchen/lounge area has two day beds with decent mattresses and comfy bedding. One can be pulled out into a double bed. The kitchen has a small fridge, microwave, kettle, Nespresso machine, dishwasher and range, with plenty of dishes etc. There was no coffee but there was tea, sugar and sp. Toilet paper, washing up liquid and dishwasher pods are also provided. The flat has a good washer/dryer combo which was nice. Laundry soap provided. The bathroom was small but a good use of space. There is a stand up shower. Bring your own toiletries. Only one caution - nearby is a commercial meat market that runs overnight. It can be noisy. But there are double windows and blinds which help. Do bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. Communication with the owner was great. Would recommend and will return!

Only one problem

We stayed in the summer and when it was hot outside it was hot inside. There was a standing a/c unit in one room but it didn’t cool the place. We kept windows open but the meat market is right across the street and it is very loud at all hours of night with trucks, carts, yelling etc so windows open is tough. Bring earplugs! Otherwise location etc was great!

Very good base

We were in London for a week and the apartment was a good spot for exploring the city. It had sufficient space for 3 and there were almost 10 places to eat within a 5 minute walk. There were 2 very hot days and the bedroom has 2 fans but no air conditioning although the main room does. The window cannot be opened due to the noise from the meat market in the night. Also, the washer dryer combo worked well for washing but not for drying. Rolf did offer us another dryer for use. Besides those 2 issues, we were really pleased with our stay.

Thank you for choosing to stay with us, and for your patience in coping with the two hottest days in London in 2024 ! For the most of the year of course the city is rather cooler and the flat more soundproof. Meanwhile we have the repair guys for the washer / dryer and we do our best to keep the listing and the stay as comfy as possible. Best wishes ! //rolf+mok

Great location physical but noisy

Great location. The only issues that we encountered have been repeated in other reviews…. Noisy bar downstairs and very noisy meat market across the street during the night. This being said, I do believe the owners have made efforts to reduce the noise but installing proper windows and window treatments. Only other real negative was the lack of towels for our two week stay. There is a washer but the dryer malfunctioned while we were there and had to hang dry towels and clothes. Some items could also use a little updating and the kitchen area is seeing some wear and tear just from overuse. The owner was extremely responsive and easy to contact!

Excellent Location!!

Could not be happier with the location and the responsiveness of our hosts! The neighborhood is right on the Elisabeth Line from Heathrow. TONS of restaurants in the area (La Forchetta for brekkie!) and St. Paul's and Whitechapel are steps or a tube stop away. We walked home from the Globe and the Tower of London. Unfortunately the dryer was broken; but the good news is it was so hot during our stay that our laundry dried quickly in our flat! There is a room air conditioner in the main room but it just couldn't keep up with the extraordinary heat we experienced because of the heatwave. Plenty of fans provided helped! In normal seasonal temps it would be fine. There are 2 pubs below and the meat market across the street that runs midnight until 7am, but astonishingly the street noise never kept us up, the sound barrier of the windows was excellent. Never heard neighbors either! All-in-all, a perfect situation for couple with 2 teens!
