Great location and accommodation for a couple of nights. Basic but functional and suited out needs. We had problems getting access to the apartment when we arrived as host didn’t arrive and didn’t apologise for delay when they did appear. Person on phone did try to help after my 3rd call which was appreciated

The highlight to this place is its location. Wonderful neighborhood with all the shops and restaurants you could want. The facilities were clean. The check in process was so-so. The major drawback was that the sofa bed was without hyperbole the worst bed I’ve ever ‘slept’ on. No exaggeration, the springs were digging into my skin so badly that I bruised.

The apartment was satisfactory for me and my two adult children. Having air conditioning was wonderful given we were in London during a heat wave. However, there were a few issues: 1) we texted the contact when we were arriving, and yet had to wait outside in the heat for him to let us in - there was another family waiting as well, 2) we were told we were on the second floor and then found out we were up five flights of stairs, 3) the tension rod for the shower curtain collapsed the first time we touched it - we were able to put it back in place, but this happened several times. 3) my son slept on the pull-out bed in the living room/kitchen area, and it was extremely uncomfortable. The flat is in a great location with lots to do and proximity to museums, cafes and restaurants, buses and the tube.

Overall, a great experience, and I would stay here again. The location is excellent—safe, well-lit, lively, and close to major attractions, shops, and the subway. The only downside was that the elevators were not working, so going up and down four flights of stairs was inconvenient, especially with luggage or after walking all day. The host was excellent and always communicated clearly, responding promptly to our questions and requests.

Communication was excellent. I was contacted prior to arrival and communication was constant right up to the day of our stay. Check in and out was simple and we were greeted by a member of staff on our arrival at the property. They were still in the process of having a quick hoover when we arrived but that didn't bother us and they were very polite about it. The property was great and has all the amenities. It very much added to our time in London.

The location can't be beat. We had some miscommunication about the check in time. We were told anytime after 3 and we had said we'd be there around 6. When we arrived at 5pm, the room was not yet cleaned. It was cleaned in a hurry, so I'm not sure how thoroughly it was cleaned. The room was fine but the beds were very lumpy. The laundry machine was not very clean. It was ok, not great.

A well-located very smart apartment. We were greeted by the host on time. They were very friendly. The apartment is so clean and modern. Powerful shower and comfortable king size bed. The kitchen was well equipped and the aircon was the perfect addition. The location of the property is incredible. A 2 min walk from the Natural History Museum and 5mins from South Kensington tube. We would not hesitate to book this apartment again. Thank you for the great stay.

We were generally pleased with our stay. The location was perfect as we wanted to visit Natural History Museum, Science Museum and Victoria & Albert Museum. Communication with the host was easy. Whenever I messaged them before our stay, they provided detailed information. We were able to communicate easily on the day of arrival, and a member of staff met us when we arrived at the accommodation. I hadn’t actually expected the room to be in the basement, but it was bright, so we didn’t mind too much. There was no noise from outside or from the building, and the atmosphere was peaceful. On the plus side, we didn’t have to carry our suitcases upstairs, as there was no elevator in the building, just as mentioned in other reviews. The room was generally clean. Some areas of the flat needed a bit of maintenance. The kitchen and other areas were well equipped. The internet connection was fast and stable. It’s a place that’s well worth choosing at this price.

The lift/elevator did not work, requiring us to climb 4 flights of stairs with our suitcases. We we're advised to call 30 minutes ahead so someone could meet us there to let us in, which we did, however no one was there to meet us. We were also provided conflicting information by email sending us access codes, but those did not get us into the room either. We had to wait around for someone to bring us a key finally. The washer dryer combo was hard to use and didn't work well. No instructions were provided. And the TV did not work at all. The room itself was nice, the neighborhood was nice, and the staff was very nice.

I spent a week at this apartment and below is my honest review. Pros: 1. Location - South Kensington is very central. Tube stop, grocery stores, restaurants all within a short walk 2. Air conditioning - not the most powerful AC but something is better than nothing especially during the heatwaves 3. The building is clean and exterior is pretty Cons: 1. The furniture in the apartment is functional at best - college dorm quality. 2. Bathroom is very small. There is no shelf or caddy to place the shampoo and other bottles, so they stay on the floor 3. The door to the enclosed shower area doesn't close fully and one of the walls was off its hindge - risky as can fall anytime 4. Appliances all lack maintenance - AC leaked water to the extent that the TV right below it was drenched. This could have led to a short circuit - Dishwasher foam flooded the kitchen area - Tea kettle needed descsaling 5. The master bed was loose in all hindges. Everytime one person moved the entire mattress vibrated. Very tough to get a decent night's sleep 6. Cleaning service happened only once when we got the apartment. We had to negotiate with the manager to get one more complimentary service since we were there for an entire week. 5. My BIGGEST problem was the requirement for constant follow-ups with the manager. There is no one available at the property for assistance. Everything requires multiple calls and follow-up and despite that, most of it happens 24-48 hour delay.
