Matthew's 3-bed townhouse is well appointed, very spacious, clean and comfortable. Cleanliness, space and convenient transport links are the most important factors to us when we are visiting London. This apartment scored 10/10 in all 3 areas. It is in a private estate located across the road from Canning Town station, where you can use either the Jubilee line or the DLR to get everywhere. The convenient location of the tube ensured that our travels around London were always a breeze! Also note that the Apartment is only 2 train stops away from the Westfield Shopping Mall Stratford. And if going to the west end, it's a straightforward journey on the Jubilee line to Bond Street.
The apartment was quiet, warm and cozy. The bed linens were immaculate and fresh. There were enough towels for a family of 5. There was also lots of room for everyone, which in my opinion is a rare privilege in London! Our younger kids had plenty of play time around the house without disturbing the rest of us. There is a big playground for the family right on our doorstep, although we could not enjoy this facility due to the cold weather.
Our host, Mr Matthew was very kind and considerate. He had provided a welcome pack of essential toiletries. This turned out to be quite useful as we arrived at night and I was not looking forward to going out immediately to shop for items like tissue paper etc. He also patiently walked us through the neighbourhood so we could easily move around later.
The appliances were adequate. In addition to the sizable TV in the lounge, there was also a TV in the master bedroom. We could catch up on news and events without encroaching on kids' play time.
Everything worked well in the apartment and we didn't have any cause to call Mr Matthew during our 10 day stay.
In conclusion, if you are travelling as a family or a medium sized/large group, do not waste your time searching and looking through hundreds of options online; go ahead and book this one!
We are already looking forward to our next stay. 😁
