Great apartment in wonderful location

This apartment has a phenomenal location just a block from Kensington High Street tube station and a couple blocks to Kensington gardens. Apartment was very clean and comfortable. Lots of light from big windows and nicely decorated. Local staff were very friendly and easy to communicate with. Also a nice Whole Foods just a couple blocks away for groceries and takeout. Our family of four was very comfortable. Would highly recommend!
