Great place to stay

I loved being fairly central to everything. The St James Park underground station is under the flat, great for getting around the city. Lots of places to eat nearby. Very easy walking distance to everything by the Thames, from food, entertainment, sites, and parks. Sean was a lovely host, as I messaged him more than I probably needed to. I would definitely stay there again.

The flat was very clean and well appointed. The location was perfect for our needs as we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go to all the major sites and convenient to the theatre district. The pubs were plentiful and the food great. Sean, our host, was very attentive and the instructions for both arrival and departure were very clear and easy to follow. Would certainly stay again.

This flat (#12) is exactly as described. It is a very clean apartment with all the required amenities. The location is excellent—within walking distance of the major attractions, and the subway is just outside the flat. Sean is always available to answer any questions. I highly recommend this place without any hesitation.

GREAT STAY, MATE!

The flat met or exceeded our expectations. Walking distance to Westminster sights; within a 30 minute Tube ride to all other London attractions. The Tube (subway) station was two blocks away. There is a taxi stand at the Tube station. Pubs, restaurants, bakeries, delis all within a few minutes walk. The area is quiet during the evenings.My only negative comment would be that the parking lot at the doors to access the apartment building needs to be cleaned. I understand that this is not something Sean controls.Sean was terrific.Don't miss the short stroll to St. James's Park!

Great location, Great host!

We were in London for a week and stayed at Sean’s flat which was located in a perfect location. Super short walk to St James Park, The Thames and all its attractions, the mall and Buckingham Palace and the Tube which is super easy to take. Sean was a very courteous host and very flexible. We were able to check out a bit later which was a great relief as our flight out was late that day. The place was very clean and has access to good TV channels for morning news and such. The size was perfect. Bed and linen super comfy and fresh. It has a washing machine and drying rack which worked very well. The fridge had a few items in it that was handy when we arrived such as milk and water! Tea and coffee was provided. It’s surrounded by lots of convenience shops, coffee shops and pubs. Would recommend Sean place to any couple looking for a very convenient spot to stay at. A great spot. Great host.

Inaccurate listing and a liar

After arriving we realized that the laundry machine was broken, and even though the fact that the listing had a laundry machine was the main reason we booked here we gave the host the benefit of the doubt when he said it would be fixed in 3 days. 3 days later the host reached out and said it wouldn’t be fixed and recommended we leave early and accept a refund. I agreed and we left promptly. Now I’m finding out from Vrbo that the host doesn’t want to give us a refund even though he recommended it to us. Save yourself the headache and look elsewhere. The only silver lining here is that my bank has looked at my proof, realized the host was in the wrong, and will be refunding us.

This property has everything you need for a great stay in London most importantly it is centrally located and spitting distance to the tube station which we used all the time. While it is a bit spartan it has all the important amenities. We actually found it quite spacious for two. And the bed is super comfortable.

Perfect Location and Great property/owner

If I could give this property more than 5 stars, I would. Great location! Great owner who not only made our check in easy by allowing us to do it earlier because of our international flight, but also he was wonderful during check out. The apartment is close to all the attractions and if you need to go further just take a tube ( right outside of flat) or Uber boat . The apartment is clean and nice. Everything you need is inside. Very happy with our week stay at this location. Definitely would come back and stay here again! Thank you!

A well-situated, well-kept vacation residence

Despite the rather unappealing views from its windows, this residence has much to recommend it. It's simply but amply furnished, well stocked with equipment, and, best of all, perfectly situated. It's located atop a tube station. It's within quick walking distance of both lovely, nature-filled St. James Park and the Mall and Westminster Abby, and within minutes by Tube and bus of all of the city and its many distinctive neighborhoods.
