It was rather close to the event I came to attend in London and there is a bus station very close to it that offers transportation which can take you to other areas in the city that offer more options for shopping, dining and entertainment.

− The apartment has 4 rooms and they all share a single shower and a single toilette. So, if they are all full (and three had guests while I was there, you may not be able to use either according to your own needs. As for the room, it was very small, without a place to unload your clothes from the suitcase (except for a small and fragile rack that you could hang on only a few pieces), and the room was not so aesthetically pleasing as on the photo (but that is a matter of taste, I guess). Also, the apartment is located on the ground floor, so if you have issues with feeling safe, it is not for you. It is fairly quiet, but people and kids walk by from the nearby school and you have to keep your curtains closed. You can also hear the maintenance people in the backyard chatting when they work or pass by. The owner did not seem terribly interested. I found the keys above the building entrance door. When I wrote to him asking about the Wi-Fi service (which was posted on the wall, but I did not notice), he did not reply. You get a key for the room, but after I took a shower could not unlock the door, because the lock was defective when trying to unlock from the outside (it worked fine from the inside of the room). It took me a while to open the door and thereafter I did not lock my room from the outside when I would leave the apartment. I notified the cleaning lady of it and sked that she convey my message to the owner, but the room lock was not fixed later that day and the owner didn't even bother to call to say anything about it. The other two rooms were also taken, so the floor in the shower room was wet after some of the other guests took a shower and it was like that when I left the apartment for good. Finally, there is not much going on in the surrounding area in terms of the choice of restaurants or stores.

Location is perfect - bus stop and several supermarkets are really easy to get to on foot, area is quiet. Bathroom as well as kitchen are clean, kitchen is well equipped

− Sheets and bed linen are pretty old (but clean), mattress was mowing around the bed, which was not very comfortable. According to booking confirmation (as well as photos of the room on the booking.com) there was supposed to be TV in the room - there was none (the room we got had nothing in common with the photos on booking.com)
