Great location just off the trendy Exmouth Market. 5-star studio flat with super king Tempur mattress Murphy bed, electric blind, top of the range kitchen with sparkling and boiling water taps, coffee machine, underfloor heating, washing machine/dryer, luxurious sheets and towels. Bathroom with top quality Rainfall shower.
We highly recommend this property. We flew into Heathrow, caught the Elizabeth line straight to Farringdon station, short 10 min walk to the apartment. Easy access to all the tourist spots with a bus across the road. The bed is so comfortable, the shower has plenty of hot water. Had a problem with internet access when we arrived, Gina was onto it and had it fixed very quickly. Perfect location, plenty of eating places to choose from. The Union Tarvern does great Sunday roast too.
Very nice place to stay. Probably the most comfortable bed Iâve ever slept in. There is no kettle but there is a hot tap which runs instant boiling water.
Not being familiar with the geographic layout and scale of London, I was concerned that the location of the property may be out of the way for seeing the sights. To my relief, it turned out to be in a tremendous spot, easily accessible to public transport, and within walking distance of some wonderful pubs & attractions.
Excellent 10-day stay! Studio seems close to new, with a very comfortable bed, excellent shower, and fully stocked kitchen. Quite spacious for a studio. In a neighborhood with many food options and an easygoing vibe. Host was responsive and helpful. Would definitely stay again!
The flat was better than the pictures. Very clean and the fruit and Prosecco were a lovely touch. There was everything you needed for a short stay and more. The bed was a bit high to get in and out of, but once you were in it it was very comfy. The area is great, wonderful places to eat. Gina was super quick and responsive when we needed to contact her. Would recommend!
This flat was perfect!! Spent five days in London and had an amazing time. The flat was close to metro stops- which made getting around super easy. Very close to Central London. Exmouth Market right around the corner offered a variety of food options. The overall flat was perfect for the two of us. Gina responded quickly to my messages and was even able to have the flat ready earlier for us since our plane arrived early morning.
Less than two miles from all the attractions of London with great bus access from stops within a block or two and an Underground station 0.4 mile down the street. Neighborhood is quiet with few tourists. Lots of local residents and the restaurants/shops/pubs they patronize. Waitrose & Partners supermarket is a 10 minute walk away. Flat has everything you need. Watch your head in the bathroom if you are over 6 feet tall. Stayed 5 nights, enjoyed Londonâs energy, and were happy to have our own little refuge every night just a short bus ride away.
The bed was super comfy, nice mattress and linens, very clean and modern, owner left a bottle of proseco and fresh flowers, and there were espresso pods - always appreciated! The little place has all the amenities, including great resturaunts nearby.
Know there is no ventillation, and we experienced a slight odor coming from the shower drain. (Kept the bathroom door closed). The TV wasn't working. The owner was un-responsive when queried about these two issues, which was suprising.
The PROs
The small unit is on the ground level near Exmouth Market and other wonderful food shops. Just across the street you can catch the bus for traveling. The bed is very comfortable and the room has a small refrigerator/freezer, stovetop, oven, dishwasher, air conditioner and washer/dryer unit. There was even fresh flowers placed in the unit with fresh fruit.
The CONs
The bathroom was very tiny and there was no sink. You will need to brush your teeth or wash your hands in the kitchen sink. There was lots of water damage in the bathroom and this caused lots of mildew you could see and smell. Keep the bathroom door closed or your entire unit will smell like mildew. The shower tiles on the floor were loose and was coming apart when we showered. The fan isolator was not working in the bathroom too. The floor in the unit was filthy. I never wear shoes inside and my bedroom slippers were completely black from the dirty floor by day 2. The cleaning person came by and explained she was vacation and did not clean our unit before our arrival. She wiped away the mildew and cleaned the floors. She stated she was aware of the fan, shower tiles, water damage, and mildew. Nothing can be done until it gets repaired from the owner. We were constantly killing small moths and slug/worm creatures during our stay in the kitchen and bathroom.
While we enjoyed the location of the unit, we were very disappointed with the cleanliness.
Niedliche kleine Wohnung, als RĂŒckzugsort vom GroĂstadttrubel völlig ausreichend!
Ein kleines BegrĂŒĂungsgeschenk in Form von frischem Obst und einer Flasche Sekt BlumenstrauĂ hat uns total gefreut.
Schade war nur, das man das Fenster nicht zum LĂŒften öffnen konnte , dafĂŒr ist aber eine Klimaanlage vorhanden.
In die Stadt kommt man bequem mit dem Bus, Haltestellen sind in unmittelbarer NĂ€he.
Zu FuĂ ist das Zentrum auch gut zu erreichen.
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefĂŒhlt und kommen gerne mal wieder!!!
Great location for food and public transportation!
Ginaâs place is exactly as advertised and a quiet retreat from the streets of London. The location was no problem and it was easy to get around. The fact that Gina found a way to fit a working oven, microwave, dishwasher, washer and dryer in the unity is a MAJOR plus for guests. There is a slight smell of mildew but I expect this to be normal of a lot of the smaller, lower level places in London. The unit was very clean and stocked well with more amenities than expected!
This petite place was just as advertised. First floor flat near Exmouth Market, with a good selection of restaurants. Flat is compact, modern and comfortable. Good communication with owner and a small repair issues was addressed immediately. Found a bottle of wine and fruit tray waiting for us. 10 minute walk to the Underground and Nation Rail Station. Def would recommend and would stay there again.
Murphy bed was at an awkward height for getting in and out. The wood frame makes it uncomfortable on the legs. Also it was too heavy for me to close it so it had to remain open/down my entire stay
Such a great place to stay, location was great, easy access to buses and tube. Arrived to find a bottle of Prosecco, basket of fruit, coffee, biscuits & milk. Overall very clean and respectable area. Flat is on street level but has one way glass, however at night has necessary auto blinds to block view. Would definitely stay again.
We were happy with the cute, small flat due to itâs location, supplies provided, dishes and cooking pots and pans. There could not have been a better location for catching the excellent London bus system. Just a few short steps across or down the street Many eating places close by and a large grocery store a short bus or enjoyable stroll away. The flat was also reasonably priced for the great location. Lack of communication made checking in a bit of a problem but it was resolved successfully. Further communication during our stay was better. A little bit of instructions on how to use the appliances would have been helpful since we were not familiar with the cook top and washer/dryer machine. If ever again in London we would happily stay there again.
