Noira  Munich, Germany
Review Submitted: June 22, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Clean, well-maintained and top-equipped property even better than the description. The owner provides a nice welcome and lots of informations about your stay in town. We absolutely would recommend this property not only to friends and family but to everyone who wants to do some running in the nearby park.

Beautiful refuge in the heart of London
Kismet  Ottawa, Ontario Canada
Review Submitted: June 9, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
My husband, 2 young sons and I stayed here for 3 days. It's a beautiful, amazingly-equipped apartment. It has every possible extra and was a great place from which to enjoy London and then retreat after a long day. Fred and Iris are organized, efficient and wonderful to deal with. I would return again in an instant and recommend it to anyone.

London Revisited
Briskiwis  Brisbane, Australia
Review Submitted: June 7, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
Finding a central London location for my wife and I, plus daughter, son-in-law and 3year old grand daughter was no easy task. I searched countless websites before locating Fred and Iris' Paddington/Bayswater property.

Having lived in London some years earlier I have first hand knowledge of the perils of flatting in London so I did have some qualms.

Happily, everything promised in the property listing was spot on, from the wonderful location - just five minutes from Paddington Station (and the Heathrow Express), ten minute stroll with grand daughter to Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens (with the Princess Diana Memorial providing the best kiddies playground ever).

Buses and tube to everywhere in London right on the doorstep meant 10-15 minutes to West End or Knightsbridge.

A couple of pubs, and a host of restaurants within easy walking distance.

All extremely important attributes for our stay in London but the most pleasing thing was that the property provided everything we needed.

Top quality appliances, a fully (and I mean fully) equipped kitchen, top quality furnishings and linen, toys and books, two beautifully appointed bathrooms and three generous bedrooms.

London was the first port of call for us on an eight week holiday in Britain and France, so it was a joy to have a week in such a great flat.

We would rate the property overall as the best we stayed in taking into account location, presentation, facilities, spaciousness, quality of fittings and furnishings, and cleanliness (spotless).

The only drawback for some might be that it is a basement flat and with steps down from street level it may not be suitable for elderly or disabled people.

George and Amy  Milwaukee WI, USA
Review Submitted: June 3, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We found this apartment to be perfect for a visit to London. It's in a fairly quiet residential area only a few minutes walk to the Paddington tube stop. Fred & Iris, the owners, were there to meet us on our arrival and gave us a nice walk-through. The gave us some tourist tips for getting around London, and seeing things in town. Don't be afraid of using London's tube system. It's amazingly clean, safe, and efficient. We started each day at Paddington tube stop and from got everywhere in the city in very short order. For getting in and out, the Heathrow Express train will get you between the airport and Paddington in 15 minutes.

The kitchen was wonderful and Fred & Iris had pre-stocked in a variety of food items, drinks, and wine for us. There are several grocery stores within a short walk from the unit which made it easy to catch a relaxed "breakfast in" before venturing out for the day , After a day of sightseeing the comfy living room was a great place to unwind, and watch TV on the large flat screen set. The internet-attached computer was a really nice plus! It allowed us to make some on-line reservations and do some e-mail. My daughter had her laptop, and was able to use the wi-fi in the apartment too. There is a phone in the apartment with free local calls within London and mostly free (some restrictions) service to the USA - an unexpected pleasant surprise!.

We found the beds to be very comfortable and the bathrooms to be clean and tidy, with plenty of hot water for showers. If there was street noise, we certainly didn't hear it from the quiet bedrooms. There were plenty of towels, linens, laundry & dish soaps, and other logistic supplies provided which made for easy living. By using the washer & drier our packing was made lighter by about half. It was nice to have a "home" in London for our visit.

We would certainly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting London!
Please say "Cheers" to Fred & Iris for us!
