The host was unable to fix the multiple issues: heating didn't work, stove didnt work, bathroom sink handle missing for hot water and worst of all, no wifi. Had to walk 10 min to get keys, and the host kept saying they were expediting the issues but never did anything. I cant believe they wouldnt call me or just get over to fix the issues.The unit itself was a nice space, but unfortunately, it is obvious they just dont care enough.

This is a very nice apartment. The location is fantastic - close to tube stations and a short walk to the British Museum. It’s in a lively neighborhood. There are stairs to climb so if that’s an issue, take note. But if not this is a very nice place with plenty sleeping space and 2 full bathrooms plus a toilet. Definitely recommend.

We had a great stay and had ample room for the 5 of us girls on our girls trip. Perfect location and we could easily walk to so many things. Very clean and comfortable stay. Like other reviews, the only downside is having to pick up and drop off key in separate location(luckily our Uber drivers were ok to make pit stops and we just paid them extra) and having to carry our heavy luggage up 4 flights of stairs was no easy task. There is no AC, but once we opened some windows and turned on fans we were all comfortable. With that being said, I would still stay here again. Quick to respond and communicate which is nice!

This was a great place to stay in London, very centrally located in the heart of Fitzrovia. It was large and clean and well-furnished, recently renovated with a clean Ikea-ish vibe, with plenty of space for us and our three teenage kids. No AC but fans were provided, which was crucial during the heat wave. Not for people with problems with stairs, though (there are four flights). Key pickup was also a bit inconvenient, a 10-minute walk away in the opposite direction most people would be going (Tottenham Court Rd. Elizabeth line stop), but otherwise really great option for staying with a large group in central London. Would highly recommend and we'd stay here again if we came with the kids.

Great place. Centrally located. 2 Large bedrooms and a large bed in a curtain contained 3rd sleeping option. The real gem for us was the patio space and double sliding doors. It created a nice indoor outdoor feel on on of the hottest days in London. Fans kept the place cool and comfortable. We would definitely return here

We loved this flat - very roomy and comfortable. Good bathrooms with walk-in showers. I chose it mainly for the neighborhood which I love. The only small complaint is that it would be nice to provide a few basic things like coffee and tea, also laundry detergent. We would certainly stay here again.

Impossible comms with property manager and VRBO. Truly terrible.
The property was lovely, in a nice neighborhood, and perfect for my needs. The booking process with the property manager was the stuff of nightmares. Unresponsive to anything I sent, unwilling to talk on the phone when I asked them and VRBO for a new way to connect since the messages weren’t working. Really an absurd booking experience.

Need to be in shape
The apartment was very nice. It’s in a good area of town and lots of restaurants and the tube stations all around.
Only thing is it’s 4 flights of stairs with your luggage. So people need to be in shape and it’s three blocks to get the keys to the apartment. So take the time to understand what you have to do to get the keys Important

Great location and spacious
The apartment is in a great location near a variety of restaurants and close to public transportation. Plenty of space to spread out with our adult children and everyone could grab takeout from their preferred restaurant and dine together at the apartment. Picking up keys was a little unpleasant as the clerk was very unfriendly. A kiosk would have been easier. The apartment was very nice and as described. The stairs to the apartment definitely help the “flights climbed” on AppleWatch. I embraced the extra calories burned knowing there was not a lift. Perfect stay for our family. I would stay here again.

Great apartment, conveniently located
The apartment is very nice and conveniently located close to the tube system. Overall it is a great place if you don’t plan on cooking a lot. We would happily stay there again if the kitchen was better equipped. Beyond few pots, pans and ustensiles, the kitchen supplies were limited - no dish clothes. Also, some basic ingredients such as salt, pepper, sugar were missing. They had a Nestle coffee machine that uses pods that were difficult to find at local grocery stores. Other basic products such toilet paper and paper towel were also very very limited.
