    This is a multi-floor flat over a commercial space. The master bedroom is on the 3rd floor which from an American perspective is the fourth floor. This is not a good property if you have mobility issues. Also all the beds were on the floor, which posed a challenge when first getting up. The kitchen had a nice electric kettle, but no coffee maker. Fortunately there were multiple coffee shops within a 2 minute walk. Unfortunately they all offered a variety of baked goods, a temptation I faced daily. The weather was unseasonably hot, and the property is not air-conditioned which is common in London. We addressed this by purchasing two oscillating fans to use in the evenings when we were in residence. We left them there for others to use. Finally, do not rely on google maps when scheduling an Uber or Taxi. Google will take you into a blind alley behind the building across the street. The address is 24-A Butte Street. Butte Street is one block long and has been Pedestrian-ized. The bet pick-up or drop-off point is the intersection of Butte Street and Harrington Road.

    The rooms are large and the neighborhood was very fun. Location, location, location.

    3 flights of stairs but not too bad! - one long set from the entrance up to lounge, kitchen, toilet and outside area, another short staircase leads to two bedrooms / bathroom and then another set of stairs access the larger top bedroom with large en-suite bathroom.

    Excellent safe roomy bright airy location above an office on a lovely pedestrianised street lined with cafes and restaurants which close around 9.30-10pm, so very quiet then till around 6.30/7am when they start setting up outside cafe tables. It’s a 7 min walk to the museums, tube station, shops, restaurants nearby etc. Well equipped. Tesco express and others round corner. Great during the heatwave having large windows to open, a fan and little outside area with table too at the rear.

    The washer dryer is not intuitive. Washes well, but takes forever to dry. Carpets were a bit dirty and worn. Fridge could use some ice trays - the only one in the freezer was small, old and leaky.

    Great location, right in the middle of it all. Everything you need is close by. Comfy beds, lots of space and good natural light.

    -No A/C, - No lift so we had to carry the heavy suitcases up the stairs (this is expected in London) - It is a 3 storey apartment with stairs

    It was in a central location of London and the facilities were in workable order and the beds were comfortable. It was a good stay for a family of 5.

    The only advise for travelers is that the apartment is distributed in 3 floors, so if you have heavy bags or have difficulty climbing stairs this might not be good for you.

    This apartment is extremely well located next to restaurants, coffee shop, supermarket and underground & bus stops (two blocks away at the most). Well maintained, super clean and extremely easy check-in / check-out process. Highly recommended with enough space for a group or family of 6. The pictures in the listing are accurate.

    Some of the living room seating furniture is starting to show wear ie. less comfy. It's a multi-story flat, so a bit of stairs to climb. This was not an issue for myself or anyone in our group, but something to be aware of. The door to the flat is right by a restaurant with outdoor sitting, so it may be easy to miss when you first arrive, and there may also be diners sitting quite close to it, possibly making for slightly awkward, but amusing moments when entering or exiting. On those occasions just come to the door, keys in hand, ready to enter swiftly.

    Contact from the host/managing company within minutes of booking to ensure a smooth check in. It's an excellent accommodation: attractive, clean, comfortable, well appointed, and maintained. located in an attractive street/alley with plenty of food choices; it's close to the tube and other public transport; also close to convenience stores; and in a nice, walkable neighborhood, not far from Hyde park, for your morning/evening run or walk. A Perfect stay for two or three couples or a group of friends. I would stay here again any time.

    The dryer function of the washing machine did not work so that greatly inconvenienced our stay. Accomodo was very responsive and helped to send the technician quickly to check the machine though unfortunately the issue was not resolved. Do note that there is no aircon (which is ok in cooler weather) but fans were provided in the 2 bedrooms.

    Excellent location. Very near to South Kensington tube station and bus stop (3 min walk), and 10 min walk to Gloucester road station. Apartment was equipped for simple cooking and there are convenience stores nearby (Tesco express, little waitrose) to buy groceries or ready meals that can be heated up easily with the microwave in the apartment. There are many restaurants and cafes just below and nearby with variety of food - pubs, fish & chips, pizza, crepes, Lebanese food, Indian food, even bubble tea but that also means it can get a bit noisy at night. The host - accomodo was responsive and replied quickly to questions.

    The only and it’s really minor is a better cooling system for the warmer months on the top floor. The rest of the house had a great temperature.

    The location was exceptional for all the museums and it had great places (restaurants, cafes and a wonderful fruit and vegetable stand with fresh smoothies) all within a few minutes walk. I highly recommend this home for families and solo travelers.

    No AC… My fault that I did not look more carefully at the amenities, but to have no AC in the middle of a hot London summer and the fact that only two of the five fans worked at the apartment (!) was a big disappointment. It just killed our two days there. It was just ungodly hot and there was no relief by the two very small "personal" fans that were provided. We had 6 of us. Supplies were lacking. One small roll of paper towels in the kitche, and no hand towels in the bathrooms… It was a nice place but certainly they clearly skimped a bit on certain amenities that you would expect from staying at other "fully equipped" apartments in this price range around Europe.

    Location was great...right in the heart of some nice shops and pubs.

    Some stains on the carpets.

    The location was perfect for a concert at the Royal Albert Hall which is within walking distance. Kensington Palace, Hyde Park and the Serpentine also within walking distance and The Natural History Museum is just around the corner. Lots of eateries on the street give the location a good vibe. The apartment itself was clean on the whole, spacious, well equipped and comfortable. The patio is great on hot days. It was easy to access through the box key.

    Unfortunately, the experience was severely compromised due to a bed bug infestation in the unit. Shortly after arriving, I began noticing itchy bites and blisters on mine and my friend’s body. Upon further inspection, I found clear signs of bed bugs around the mattress and headboard area. This was not only unsanitary but deeply distressing. I was unable to sleep, had to isolate my belongings to avoid bringing the infestation home, and ultimately had to seek medical attention for the bites I sustained. The physical discomfort, emotional stress, and fear of contamination were traumatizing, and completely overshadowed what was supposed to be a relaxing trip.
