Had a great stay!It's spacious, being double the size of a standard UK hotel room, which we loved especially being 3 people.The area is great - Kensington with lovely coffee shops. The host recommended the Scarlsdale pub for lunch that's next door with a sunny terrace, great food and lots of British Charm. Easy communication with the host and finding the place, including checkout.Very quiet, we slept really well - needed after daily sightseeing!Highly recommended.

Great Location
Great location and the owner is a gem to communicate with and thoughtful. She got some items for our 18 month old.
The negative thing is that the studio has humidity issue which I believe contributed to some sickness. ( stuffy nose, coughing). When we were out and about there was no issues. We did empty the humidifier everyday.
