Seattle couple in London for a week
Review Submitted: May 19, 2009
Date of Stay: May 2009
Starting with the exchange of emails and phone questions we had, each of our concerns were handled professionally and quickly. Is the bed an american king size? Yes (and it was indeed). Is it safe to leave valuables while we tour London? Yes (multilple locks are present, but you'll quickly realize all are not necessary). Is there a hairdryer? Yes. Is there a way to make coffee? (a french press was purchased the day we arrived to ensure that need was met). Most important - Can we trust these folks with our rent money? Yes (and we're glad we did).
But the two most outstanding features for me: the neighborhood was amazingly accessible, safe, easy-to-learn; and the apt (flat) personnel were exceptional. Adam oriented us to the flat, then took us for a quick walkabout the neighborhood. He was responsive to our request for TV help, but respective of our time and privacy. Gerry handled our exit and was similar in his kindness and helpfulness. We highly recommend this rental. Be aware, it is not modern, but has character that matches it's upper-working class neighborhood. When asked for suggestions, we recommended an additional (full-length) mirror and a clock. We especially enjoyed Tube accessibility (2 blocks away) for quick, cheap tourist sites.
