London Accommodation - 2 Bedroom Rental in Bloomsbury (LN-388)

We think the following things could be improved:
-in the kitchen, the pots are too small (the apartment is for 6 guests, but the pots and the pans are too small)
-there should be some more towels for stays of a week or more.

The apartment was comfortable; nice beds and towels, very nice heating and appliances. But, the fridge was small and it had no freezer, and there was no dishwasher (which is important when you are in a vacation). The wifi was only available at the distribution hall

It was spotless, but it would be more cozy if it had some low lamps in the living room (not just ceiling lights).

Welcoming and efficient staff. Very good location. Bus, tube nearby. Waitrose 5mn walk. Great experience.

Great location and all modern comforts, the noise level from the street in front of it is where it falls down (with open windows in the sitting room). But we are saved by the double glazing.

Just a few suggestions for a less impersonal stay:
- It would have been nicer to put up posters or pictures to make the sitting room more "homely".
- The lights in the sitting room are too bright and not cozy enough. Where have the traditional "welcome tea bags" gone?
- front desk is efficient although quite cold at first sight (don't smile much)

The accommodation is wonderful, it has everything you need for a short vacation, it is rather quiet despite its location 100m from a station. Staff was AVAILABLE, DYNAMIC, FRIENDLY, EFFICIENT..

Accommodation fully adequate for 5 people, central location 2 min from the subway station, bus stop opposite and car park in the building itself.

Front desk staff service was good. Fully equipped will all the needed utensils and appliances.

We were very comfortable, no problem at all. Ideal location and good service.

Great Location - nice and clean & tidy. Good facilities nearby.

We found the apartment excellent overall but felt that things like salt, pepper, spices etc. item that don't go off and you use so little of could be provided. I know we left such items behind for the next tenant hoping they would not be thrown out.

Very clean, well equipped apartment and therefore enjoyable to stay here except for the lack of soundproofing which is a nuisance at night. The rental price was very high though.

everything was perfect...

The apartment is great, spacious, we recommend it for future rental. The only problem that we had was with the heating system. We were not advised that the building turns off the heating system in May, even with cold days/nights. They need to think about this policy and be more flexible with it.

We enjoyed the space, the quality of the bedding, kitchen and bathroom all very good, the condition of the apartment that was so to say brand new. The minor flaws were: the toilets in the bathroom and the excessive heating which meant we often had to open the windows.

The apartment was comfortable and we had a good stay. The only glitch was a change in the apartment number that we were not notified of and led to some confusion when we checked in.

No opinion on the owners whom we never met.

The main strengths of the vacation rental are: its location, the cleanliness, the layout, the furniture and the building reception.

The weak points are: the heating is far too hot and can't be regulated, the noise (we had to leave the windows open because it was too hot), the lack of utensils for basic cooking (large pans and frying pans, sharp knives etc.)

Excellent

Excellent location (domino's pizza delivered in 20 minutes - nothing better for three children!!!) nice people at desk, very comfortable flat.

Will recommend it to everyone!

+ : The accommodation is very bright and the location is very good, close to many museums and regent's park which is great when you have kids.Many restaurants nearby for all budgets. The apartment is spacious and well equipped. Nice welcome.

- : As the apartment is bright, the blinds in the bedrooms don't block the light enough which made our nights shorter. Maybe find a solution (curtains...) Consider adding baby items especially a high chair (I got a crib that I'd thought of asking for when I made the booking)

In the end, we had a nice stay in London with the kids (three 15 month-old, 6- and 10 year-old) and I recommend this vacation rental, much more handy than a hotel and better value.

The area is noisy but central it is bearable when the windows are shut if you are in the bedrooms at the back the problem we had was when it was hot in london and the central heating was right up we asked to have it turned off several times but for an unknown reason they never turned it down (no control in the apartment, hence the choice between very noisy or stuffy).

However they let us use the apartment over the usual times we arrived early and left late (no luggage to carry on arrival and departure days). the apartment was refurbished but problems with finishing touches and the windows don't have a good double glazing.

For 6 people, it's a bit Spartan.

The stay at the apartment was fine, the location is good with good connections with subway and busses, there was a problem with the fire alarm that would go off with no reason and was disquietening.

The accommodations are old and in need of renovation but overall everything worked correctly.

Value for price was fine.

Everything has gone perfectly with [our London vacation rental].

Your service has been great: a lot of apartments to choose from at your website and good communication with the agent who solved any doubts I had during the process.

After that, the attention with the apartment crew has been very satisfactory, before our arrival and during it. The apartment has a good location and the apartment itself is correct. And if we consider the price of it, it was a great value for the money.

A very good [London] apartment; clean, big, and very well located. We are very satisfied. Thanks for everything.

The flat and the location of this London rental was really, really good. We enjoyed it a lot. It was spacious, clean and the people who work there were really nice.

Thanks a lot to you and to our NY Habitat agent for finding and renting this flat to us.

We were very happy with our stay in Upper Woburn Place

The apartment was indeed very well located, the neighborhood was quiet and the staff at reception very nice and polite.

We will certainly recommend this place to anyone who wishes to visit London in a convenient way and in a clean and very decent apartment.

Everything went smoothly and there was no issue with the booking on the Internet.

Our stay at this London vacation rental offered an outstanding base for exploring London. We were within easy walking distance of three Underground stations, a very nice Waitrose supermarket, and an outstanding Waterstone's bookstore.

The Bloomsbury neighborhood was a pleasant oasis in the bustle of London.

The apartment we rented in London had a very good location, very close to the British Museum and transportation from there was great, the doormen were very nice and the apartment was big and had lots of light. We had an excellent stay.

It is a pleasure to let you know our opinion about the apartment we rented in London last July. We are very happy with the choice. The [vacation rental] was quite spacious, the beds were big and comfortable, the kitchen had all mod cons, all was very clean and the building was very quiet and it was near the city center so we were sometimes able to go walking there.

Summing up, we have no complain about the service you have offered.

Staying [in this London vacation rental] was really great

The apartment is very well situated, bus is available across the street and tube not far

It's big, well furnished, quiet, clean and people at the desk are so nice !

The apartment in London suited my family's needs very well. It had ample room and reasonable kitchen facilities. The location was very close to the Underground and other rail services. I would stay here again.

The apartment we rented in London was clean, convenient, spacious, and well equipped. My only complaint was that the double bed in the apartment was actually two single beds pushed together.

I would stay there again or more likely in another NY Habitat apartment in another section of London if this apartment indicates the quality standard of NY Habitat.

We were very pleased with the apartment we rented in London and with your service.

I wish to tell you that the London apartment greatly suited our requests and therefore I definitely recommend it. Everything was in order, the flat was clean and the staff were kind. Moreover, the area is quite central, so that we were able to move around without problem.

Thanks for your kind help and assistance. I grant you I shall certainly use your services again and I have given your email to a friend of mine who has expressed the wish to come to NYC.

We spent a week in London. The three-room flat we were in was simple but quite pleasant: spacious, the two rooms at the back so it was not noisy, enough cupboards to put our clothes in.

We had a very enjoyable time in London and found the location and condition of the apartment to be very favorable. I would certainly use your service again [...]
