After a nine hour flight and an hour long subway ride, we were ready to shower and enjoy the flat. But when we showed up at the property and unlocked the key box, it was empty.
When we called Janet to let her know that we could not get into the apartment, she was equally confused as to why the key was not there. She eventually sent her housekeeper, Leann, to let us into the flat with a spare. Once Leann arrived and opened the door, we were all shocked to see someone else's luggage in the living room.
Turns out Janet had double booked the flat for the entire duration of our stay. Tired and annoyed, we started looking for alternative accommodations. Leann was so nice that she spent two hours looking online and calling hotels with us. She eventually found a local lodge for us to stay that was in a great neighborhood. Not only did she call the property owner and settle all the details for us to rent a room, but she personally escorted us there with her baby goddaughter in tow.
We ended up being able to stay at that lodge without any problems and enjoyed a comfortable vacation. Even though it caused a pretty stressful start to our vacation, Janet was sincerely apologetic. She made sure to reimburse us the money we paid for her flat with a little extra , wrote us a card, and promised a free stay the next time that we are in London.
Although we were almost left with no place to stay due to Janet's oversight, it's hard to be mad when she and Leann went out of their way to make it up to us. Because of this, they get a 5-star rating for customer service.
Joel and Nacho were terrific hosts, very warm and helpful. They kindly offered to hold some extra luggage that we didn't need for skiing so we didn't have to carry it around with us. The flat was warm and comfortable, stylish and simple, with everything we needed. Two bathrooms were great with 2 teenagers and 2 parents;the beds were comfortable; good wardrobe space. HIghly recommended - we will be back!
We are now very switched on with the buses which we like to travel around on as you get a much better idea of where everything is and see so much more, lovely to be able to cook an easy meal after a long day out , the will take you down to Clapham Junction where there is a very good Waitrose for all your shopping needs. Defiantly our Home away from Home. Loved the location and nice clean accommodation and very comfortable bed.
You are right in the middle of everything. An uber powerful WIFI! A fully stocked kitchen. Hosts that set you up with ideas for restaurants, the area and fun. Totally recommend this flat without any reservations!!!
From booking on, communication was fab. Svelana met us when we arrived, and the property was brilliant. It had everything we could possibly want, and was really easy to get to and find. Beds were extremely comfortable.
Great communication with the owner Sarah who was very helpful, good central location for trips in London. Property is comfortable if a little tired in places and all the bathrooms were spotlessly clean. The kitchen was a little disappointing and wa At once swish and gritty, old and new, London is a searing mass of contradictions. They all add up to create a metropolis that moves and breathes like a living thing, pulsing from Shoreditch's hipster haunts all the way to Kensington's boutiques.
Cultural attractions? Then comes a culinary scene so varied, taste buds won't know what hit them — a morning shakshuka in Dalston's Turkish kitchens followed by an evening of Indian paneer in King's Cross, anyone? London holiday rentals await. If your idea of a great city break is encountering 2,year-old Greek marbles and seeing sand-dried mummies and the Rosetta Stone all before brunch, then London holiday rentals are probably going to be right up your street.
The British Museum should be top of the bill. It's laden with treasures — priceless, the lot — from right across the globe. Roman busts? Etruscan tomb fragments? You bet. Mughal paintings? Of course. London's probably best seen as a patchwork of different neighbourhoods. Wander from west to east and you'll encounter a whole host of mini cities-within-a-city. Take Stoke Newington, a happening hub where traditional English pubs mingle with boho art galleries. Take Kensington, the haunt of the rich and famous, where wine bars meet high-end stores and boutiques for leisurely shopping.
Take Soho and its wild nightlife, or the West End, where grand theatres sparkle along the streets. And then there's the Southbank and its skateparks, and Brick Lane's vintage emporiums. There's really never a bad time to hit London town, as it always bustles with life and energy.
The autumn can be a pound-saving season, running from September to October. Winter has festive markets on the South Bank and wonderlands in the parks — come before Christmas to make the most of them. Spring — in April and May — is perfect for visiting outdoor attractions like Kew Gardens. If there's one geographical feature that really defines London, it's the long and winding River Thames. That great waterway divides the metropolis in half, linking it to royal towns in the Home Counties and to the coast to the east.
Along its length you can seek out London holiday rentals close to urban parks that offer a taste of the English outdoors. There's Hyde Park, with its monuments and lakes. There's the grassy fields of Hampstead Heath, enjoying views of London's skyscrapers.
