London Apartment - 1 Bedroom Rental in South Kensington (LN-450)

Exceeded expectations in terms of bed comfort, bathroom and bedroom size, and the kitchen being fully equipped.

For one or two people, this apartment is the perfect place to stay and explore all London has to offer. Close to public transport, shopping, restaurants, museums, Albert Hall, Kensington High Street and Kensington Gardens/Hyde Park.

The owners couldn't be more helpful, it really was like a home away from home.

The apartment offers comfort, security and is in an excellent location. It is just minutes to the nearest bus stop and only a ten minute walk to the neatest tube station. Its proximity to Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park, supermarket and various shops also adds to its appeal.

The apartment owners were welcoming and friendly and readily available by email or phone. I felt very much at home!

The apartment has a fantastic location- very central, in a beautiful street, with many transportation options nearby, as well as restaurants and supermarkets. The owners are friendly, and always willing to help. The appartment itself is lovely, and perfect for a couple. We will definetly miss it.

Peter, the concierge of the appartment, was very nice, and helpful.

However, it should be noted that the internet is not unlimiited-- as most people, my fiancé and I use the internet on a daily basis, with a big use of tv shows, downloads, etc... which was not permitted by the owners' very limited wifi contract. We thereby asked to have unlimited internet, something we believed to be normal when you pay £2,750 per month, which they accepted to do-- we were very astonished and shocked by their request for the sum of £50, which should've been already included in the very high rate we paid per month. This we did not believe to be normal, especially since the oven did not work for the month of our stay, so the WIFI could've made up for that.

Moreover, the bathroom does not have any windows, so the accumulation of condensation resulted in fungus appearing around the shower and in the bath, even with the doors and the windows open in the rest of the appartment. A solution should definetly be found for this, as it is not very charming.

In the beginning we did have several other problems (the oven and tvs not working, the window being unable to open, etc...), but the owners were flexible and friendly enough to fix the problems as they came along. That was great.

The apartment was nice, beside the mice problem I had. I waited 5 days for the problem to be solved and it was not, so I left the apartment after 20 days, and I should have stayed 2 months. The owners were very polite and attentive, but I couldn't handle the situation after almost a week dealing with a little mouse pooing around and living in the closet.
