The flat is clean and has many amenities that aren’t typical in London at that price, including AC and a patio. The location is convenient to the underground and museums, yet is very peaceful.

This apartment was ideally suited for two or three people. The pullout couch was great for a child but I’m not sure about an adult sleeping on it. The bedroom was comfortable and we loved the apartment. It’s nestled down a relatively quiet street but close to restaurants and a tube station is only a 10 minute walk away. We loved everything about it and we would definitely stay here again.

Location location location! Nice little apartment in a great neighbourhood. Communication with our host was excellent. Would definitely stay again. Only downside was the sleeper couch was quite small ( and very firm). Not really wide enough for 2 teenagers. Otherwise wonderful stay!

Nice place in a great location

Overall, the stay was great. Fantastic location and generally clean and bright apartment. The bathroom was slightly dirty and did have a strange odour coming from it that we could not seem to get rid of. All in all, I would recommend this place and location to others.
