Central London Mews House

Untidy, Uncomfortable, and Unwelcoming

2.0

Greeted by dozens of cigarette buts and plastic cups outside the front door. Previous residents had left a bag of garbage on the kitchen patio. Master bathroom flooded the first time we tried to use the shower. An empty bottle of soap was left hanging in the shower, so I had to go find a new one. There were also no trash bags available or extra toilet paper, so we had to call the management company to deliver. Listing said there were to king-sized beds; they were doubles (60 inches wide). The hand towel rack was loose in the master bath, and the sink and faucet had calcium stains. The second bathroom doesn't have a full mirror installed, so you need to use the small round shaving mirror for everything. This bathroom also had mold growing in the tub and a loose toilet paper holder that dropped the paper to the floor every time you touched it. There were dirty cooking utensils in the kitchen drawers. There were no blinds in any of the living room or front entrance windows, so the apartment got incredibly hot during the day (and never dropped below 80 degrees at night); a light shines through the front window at night that bounces off the giant hallway mirror right onto the bed in the master bedroom, so you have to sleep with the door closed, making it difficult to cool the room. The one plus is the convenient Underground station across the street and nearby grocery stores. But overall a completely unenjoyable experience.

Lovely centrally located place
