We booked this accommodation as it advertised washing machine and dryer, we have been travelling for a while and solely booked this accomodation to wash our clothes mid trip.. when we walked in the photos don’t match the room and there was no dryer and washing machine - gave them the benefit of the doubt, and text them to ask where it was: silence. Never replied. It’s false advertising so ask questions before booking.

Phenomenal location. Great communication. Studios are comfortable and well equipped. It can a bit noisy at night (due to busy location) and the showers are sometimes tricky to use, but these are minor issues -overall can't be happier with our stay and will definitely be back!

Amazing location, perfect for my son & I on our trip. Everything is close by &/or easy to get to. The studio had everything we needed, faced a courtyard so no noise from the hustle/bustle below & having to go up/down stairs wasn’t an issue for us. Would recommend!

Warning - Bed Bugs and tiny bed

Whilst the location is fantastic for a central London stay, and the property was clean and well presented, there were a few issues. Firstly, the photos are generous and the space is exceptionally small. The bed in particular is not a standard double, and it's hard to share - especially on a hot night as there is no air conditioning and just a very noisy fan. The downstairs window/door looks out to a shared courtyard, and directly opposite there is another studio and there's no curtains, so there's no privacy. (There was also a big pile of junk out there during our stay, which blocked light to one of the windows). But the major thing for me is that I left covered in bed bug/flea bites all over my body. See picture of my arm for example. I complained to Hotels.com with no answer, and I am still awaiting a reply from the owners.

Basic and some issues

I had to chase check in details to access the property (send on day of not 48hrs prior as stated), there was a small bug in the bed, the shower was not properly screened off and the wet room set up didn't work as the drain didn't work effectively. Generally the room was well equipped but no TV ariel so everything had to load through an app. I opted for the smallest studio as it was a work trip, bigger options may be better. You have to slam the door to close which led to noise throughout the night in the corridoor.

A couple of minor kinks, but overall a good experience. Property does not have a lift/elevator, so keep that in mind. Location was excellent. A block from Trafalgar Square and National Gallery. Close to the underground and train station. Kara was very responsive when I had questions.

The property is very well situated with great restaurants and easy parking on the doorstep. The apartment itself was beautifully clean, nicely decorated and the bed very comfortable. Every amenity you could want. My only slightly less positive note was the number of stairs. If I were forewarned about them, I would have taken less with me but apart from that, it was wonderful.

Staying on business. Excellent location, brilliant communication from Kara, any issue was fixed quickly. A little noisy over night on the top floor but when you’re next door to Leicester Square it should be expected!

Great stay in a central location. Very quiet. The bathroom was very cold though, the towel rail wasn’t powerful enough and it made for an uncomfortable shower in January. Overall still highly recommend.

Clean studio in the perfect location

Biggest pro is this flat is in a perfect location, within walking distance to many restaurants, stores, and tube. Quick walk to leister square and covent garden. A little noisy because of the busy area, but didn’t keep us up either. Bed is comfortable (on the firmer side). It’s a one room studio but has everything you need. Also nice is you can take Piccadilly line straight to airport without changing (although this line gets busy sometimes so have to stand with luggage and crowd in). Communication with owner was good but had to ask about check in instructions, would have thought they were sent automatically. They did accommodate an earlier check in for us though which was perfect. One of the biggest downfalls to this flat is the bathroom. The shower doesn’t have any water pressure at all and there is no shower door or even a lip on the ground so the water gets everywhere and you have to squeegy water into drain in middle of floor. Also, no storage area or plug in the bathroom so have to dry your hair in the studio. There is a towel warmer, which is nice, but be careful because the bathroom is so small with no room to move we kept burning our backsides. One of the other biggest cons is there are 61 steps to get up to the flat-no elevator. It’s a lot with the suitcases and even just going up/down several times a day for several days is tough. Another small con is there isn’t bed side plugs. Would recommend for the location if you can deal with the cons
