Blackfriars Stayinn apartment

We stayed at the Stayinn apartments at Blackfriars in London. It was warm and clean, a bit noisy due to building work across the road. It is 10 minutes from Blackfriars station. 15 minutes from Blackfriars pier. A day ticket for the Uber boats cost £25 per adult if you buy online. It is a great way to travel and you can get on/off at many places. The West End theatres are only 20-30 minutes walk away. There are lots of shops and restaurants nearby. There is a very nice Indian restaurant next door. St Paul's Cathedral can be seen from the apartment window and is 10 minutes walk away. The only thing to watch out for is the roads. They can be very busy. Our apartment had everything we needed for a short city break. TV. WiFi, oven,fridge, washing machine and dishwasher,and a nice shower. Bed was comfy.

All round bad experience

Single glazing in bedroom next to a busy side street. Very noisy. Sounded like the windows were open. Needs secondary glazing. No sleep whatsoever with restaurant staff and people walking down the side street all night. Hairs in the bath. Internal security thumb turn on entrance door doesn’t work. Anyone with the door code could just walk in at any time. Heating not working. Contacted StayInn who advised it was working with out attempting to come and inspect it. Then stopped responding. Found an electric heater in the cupboard but it didn’t work.

Double booked , stranger obtaining access

Place was nothing like in the pictures, quite run down and unhygienic. Old style single glass sash windows out onto the back of a pub that didn’t close properly, very noisy. Worst part was that they overbooked and I got the scare of my life having a stranger being in my apartment when I came back after being out for a work meeting with all my belongings in there. Totally unacceptable and left as felt unsafe and the stranger would not leave. Do yourself a favour and stay somewhere else.

A Rather Challenging Stay

Would've loved to have given the apartment a higher rating for it's close proximity to major tourist sites and cleanliness. The bed was comfortable and neatly made upon arrival. Wifi remain connected, and TV service was good! Kitchen and bathroom were exactly as described--though the refrigerator required a good defrost and multiple overhead lights were out. Nevertheless, as others have commented, the location suffers from loud noise all around. I heard near constant road traffic (it's near a major thoroughfare) and heavy footfall from the apartment above, so I got very little sleep at night. Additionally, I forgot the code to the apartment door on the evening of my first evening out. I called the apartment service 3 times between 5 and 9:00 o'clock for help (including once from a police station). Surprisingly, my calls when straight to voicemail. I could've been stranded outside overnight without a kind intervention. I would be challenged to state wholeheartedly that my experience was worth what I paid, considering other alternatives.
