We found the flat to be clean on the surface, but after being there for a while found that there were issues with maintenance of taps etc, the table was wobbly and the wardrobe falling apart. The worst problem was the musty smell in the shower, and the shower drain was blocked and we had to clean it. The smell came from the shower curtain and the drains. The plug in the sink did not work as the mechanism was rusted solid. There was black mould on the shower tiles. The tap in the kitchen couldn't be moved as it was seized up which made using it very difficult. On the positive side the wifi and tv worked very well, the flat was in a convenient position for shops, restaurants and overground and underground travel.
The location is central for visiting London.
We are a middle aged couple from California. Our reviews are based on two main factors: is the property as advertised and is it good value? In both cases the answer is yes. In fact, we were pleasantly surprised to find that the apartment is larger and much brighter than the photographs and description indicated - it is small but we did not feel cramped. The kitchen areas is really for coffee, tea, toast and maybe an egg. There is plenty of hot water and the underfloor heating works well. The bed is comfortable. The apartment is in a mews house. It backs onto a restaurant so there is the occasional crash but any noise was finished by 10 at night. There is a great pub on the corner and a french patisserie/bistro Lerclerc & Laurant about one block away where you can get the best croissant outside of France. The location is hard to beat - a two minute walk from Lancaster Gate tube station, 8 minutes from Paddington, three minutes from Hyde Park and maybe 12 minutes from Marble Arch. (Lancaster Gate is closed through July 2017). In all, we spent a happy 5 days in the apartment at a price of maybe 1/3 of surrounding hotels.
The property is small yet neat and clean. Great location and perfect for the daily rate
This apartment is situated down a small cobblestone street and tucked under a staircase in a small garage/courtyard. It's darling. Centrally located to the underground station, a bakery, a few eateries, and Hyde Park. Granted, it's small but nice and quiet. It was perfect for my sister and I on her first excursion to London. Our host was readily accessible via SMS and answered the couple of questions we had quickly. I would recommend this place to a couple or a family with one child as it is not spacious. However, I don't think you'll be disappointed by the amenities, cleanliness, and location.
"The flat is very clean! The owner is very kind. The position of the flat is central near Kensigton Garden. The nearest tube is Paddington. I hope to go back there very soon."
Paddington station and lancaster gate station are only five minutes' walk from the apartment.
