Wonderful neighborhood and apartment near Smithfield Market/Clerkenwell/Islington
Submitted: April 27, 2013
Stayed: April 2013
The "two-bedroom/two bath flat off St. Paul's cathedral" apartment was ideal for our family of 2 adult couples staying there for a week. Its central location allowed us to walk to every site we were interested in visiting (from Borough Market to Tate Modern and the National Theater to the British Museum and Library), and return "home" at night to a quiet street only minutes away from lively pubs and restaurants and several tube lines. It was well arranged for maximum privacy, clean and well maintained and secure with safe access at all hours. Our only complaint would be that the dryer in the washer/dryer combination was not working and it only proved a problem since we had packed, thinking that we would be able to refresh our clothes mid-week. Sophie made the rental process easy and reassuring and Lidiana was so helpful at check-in and check-out, orienting us to the apartment and neighborhood and making arrangements for a taxi to the airport upon arrival and departure. We always felt we could contact them in case of emergency and they would respond. I would highly recommend this apartment and would definitely stay there again on another trip to London.

Owner's Response: Dear Marsha,
Many thanks for taking the time to write a review, it is very important to us as this helps maintain standards. I am sorry the washing machine/dryer failed during your stay, and we have now replaced it with a brand new one.
Thanks again, and you are welcome back anytime.
