While this apartment easily accommodates a couple or a single person, travellers have to be aware that checking in is a bit of a runaround. The flat is spacious and has room to sleep 2 in the small double that’s in the master suite, and 2 on the pull out couch. The bathroom has a stand up shower but you just go through the bedroom to access it, which could be tricky if you’re two couples. The kitchen is fully equipped, including dishwasher, 2 burners and an oven with Waitrose on the next block. The property management staff is very responsive via email and there all very helpful.
My two biggest issues were the noise - something that’s hard to control. It’s a ground floor flat and you get the street noise (even if it’s a quiet street) but you get the neighbours noise from upstairs loud and clear. During my stay, they were up all night walking around on both nights. If you’re a light sleeper, this will be an issue. Second problem is the checkin process. I had to send my credit card on a form for the deposit (which has yet to be returned), a copy of my ID and a copy of me holding my ID. None of this feels safe to me but I have a limited fund credit card and blurrednaome of the ID details out. It was still nerve wracking less than 24 hours before arrival. Finally, you have to pick up the keys at a local shop... it was nearby but not exactly convenient.
The flat is great and I’d probably stay there again if the rates are competitive.
