2Bedroom Modern House in Camden Town

A very noisy and tiring stay.

It was spacious. Good location for accessing Camden if you don’t mind lots of noise.

− The noise at this property is really quite something. It’s so bad the beds shake as traffic goes by all through the night, believe me, it is not an over exaggeration, I’ve never experienced anything like it, it’s on a VERY busy main road through Camden so buses are going past about 2 feet from your bedroom. The internet and tv didn’t work - the owner said there was an issue with the broadband provider. A chest of draws in the bedroom collapsed when we went to use it - we reported it to the owner, they acknowledged they were already broken and intended for display only. The front door is very difficult to lock and unlock, I’m not the first review to mention this so I’m sure the owner is aware. None of us could sleep so we left after 1 night. The owners stance on it is noone else has complained of noise - However, the rest of the reviews paint a different picture, so please read them all.

El barrio estaba bien, muchos restaurantes cerca y supermercados.

− - Telarañas en paredes, ventanas., Limpieza deficiente. - La puerta del dormitorio no cerraba. - Muy complicado el mecanismo para entrar al alojamiento. - Los estores de las ventanas no se podían subir. - Los colchones de ambas camas dejaban que desear. - Escaso menaje de cocina. Además te mandan mensajes durante y estancia para que "no los robes". - La casa entera vibraba cada vez que pasaban los autobuses. - Falta de luz.

Location of appartment is just perfect with access to Camden station at 5 min. Very comfortable and good communication by email with owner.

I never imagined I would get the whole house shaking in the middle of the night

It was close to where I had to attend to some business. Close to the High Street on Camden...

− The house is located directly on the street where busses and trucks very frequently pass by. Both bedrooms on the second floor are very much suffering from noise and flagrant vibrations from the huge vehicles passing. The bed and the whole house shakes so much that it wakes you up many times in the middle of the night. Imagine London double-decker bus passing 3 meters from your window on a bumpy street. The windows are so old, thin and loose-fitting that noise is a real problem. The host requires a reservation of a deposit amount of £300 via an external service (not booking.com!), which was suspicious enough to begin with, but I opted to honor it because otherwise I would have problems canceling the booking with booking.com, so yes I did not notice it was actually mentioned as requirement on the property page, but still it felt something like an extortion. They did cancel this deposit reservation after the checkout, however my bank charged me £35 for this innocent deposit reservation. The host (or most probably some automatic secretary) was sending diverse very very long instructional/warning messages each day. So many details it was not even possible to remember it all... The only one time I did ask them about something their response did not arrive in time.

The appartment was comfortable and good location

Very handy location

− The bathroom not easy to get in the bath tub for a shower
