47 Cromwell Road.

Ideal location. A few minutes’ walk from two Underground stations and bus stop at the doorstep. Large grocery store near by as well as a lovely view of the Natural History Museum with the V&A close by. Pubs, restos are abondant in the area. And here’s the down side… there should be more crockery, glasses, cutlery in this flat. I’m sure the owner will correct this asap.All in all, a most delightful stay.

The positives were location, the working lift and a secure building. The negatives were that this place is dated and falling apart and not as pictured. The ceiling in the main bathroom was leaking during our stay and falling. There was a water heater making noise constantly even when not using any water. There was only portable air conditioners in bedrooms even though it lists air conditioning for the apartment- it uses hoses out an open window and just blew hot air most of the time. Also the patio would have been nice except it was falling apart and had cigarette butts and trash on it. Had to keep windows open for any air flow and then it was loud. There were scuff stains all over the walls and trim was breaking at spots. The carpet was old and dirty. Also the lights in the stairwell were on a timer and did not last long enough for us to get down so we would travel in dark the last few sets of stairs or use our phones for flashlights. This was a hot, dirty, loud, old place that has a good location.
