Scammers BECAREFULL AVOID THEM

1.0

NOTHING

− "These are scammers and cheaters. They completely ruined my London trip. I've been using BOOKING.COM for the last 15 years and I'm a Genius member as well. This was my first worst experience with BOOKING.COM. From booking to checkin in to communication to checkout, these people are scammers and cheaters. Don't book with them. 1. Booking: When I booked, it was a flexible payment, but daily I was getting multiple scam emails from them with links to make payments. I even got messages through WhatsApp as well. I didn't do it. 2. Location not mentioned clearly: Their apartment doesn't have a proper name; they just use "Upper Thames Apartment." They have multiple subpar apartments in Upper Thames and try to accommodate people. 3. Fake pictures: All the pictures mentioned on the site are fake. What is shown is not what is given to you. 4. Rude and unprofessional: Their WhatsApp representatives are extremely rude. They keep blaming (link unavailable) for technical glitches. 5. Advance/deposit: They won't give you the apartment without taking a deposit in cash. That's because they don't want to involve banks or (link unavailable) Once cash is given, the person disappears and doesn't return it if you don't like the fake apartment. 6. Wrong apartment: I booked for 2 wide rooms with 2 wide washrooms, but we were given 2 small rooms with a single small washroom. 7. Hassle: I told them that I'm traveling with my parents in a wheelchair and asked them to make the check-in smooth, but they gave me a fake and useless apartment on the 1st floor where I had to take up 5 big bags up and down. 8. Refund: After creating issues with them, they promised to pay me the Uber charges from the first fake location to the 2nd option, but during checkout, they disappeared. 9.

kvalita ubytování vůbec neodpovídala ceně, v bytě je špína, plíseň a celkově je cítit zatuchlina.

1.0

Ubytování mělo jednu velkou výhodu a to bylo lokalita, ta byla skvělá jako výchozí pro poznávání Londýna. Měli jsme to pěšky kousek na most Millenium a ke katedrále St. Pauls cca 5 minut, na metro a do obchodu s potravinama 7 minut. Kolem katedrály jezdí výletní londýnský autobus, který nás dovezl do centra k řece. Poloha bytu byla opravdu super. Přes Booking jsme využili taxi z letiště a byla tu super pohodlná služba, protože jsme cestovali s dětma.

− Bohužel jsme byli velice zklamaní z kvality a čistoty ubytování. Byt je celkově dost vybydlený a celý je cítit plísní a zatuchlinou. Je nevětraný, okna jsou do ulice, kde je hned dvouproudová silnice, kde je celkem silná doprava - houká policie a sanitky, moc se člověk nevyspí. Byt má k dispozici 2 dvoulúžkové pokoje, v jednom z pokojů však byla taková plíšeň ve skříni, že jsme si ani nemohli vyskládat věci z kufrů. Pokoj byl tak cítit zatuchlinou, že jsme ho po celou dobu pobytu vůbec nevyužili - nedalo se tam spát. V obou koupelnách je plíseň, nábytek má nafouklé hrany, koupelny jsou zatuchlé a nevětrané. Výhled z okna je na silnici a nadchod nad silnicí. Když jsme si apartmán Stay Thames River v květnu rezervovali, ubytovatel nám potvrdil adresu Upper Thames St, City of London, Londýn, EC4V 2AF, Velká Británie Pár dní před příletem napsal ubytovatel adresu 10 High Timber Street, London, EC4V 3PR. Přes Booking jsme si objednali taxi a ani řidič nemohl byt na uvedené adrese najít, už v tu chvíli nám to bylo divné. Vůbec jsme nebydleli v apartmánu s výhledem a okny na uvedené adrese, bydleli jsme jinde a ve špíně. Ubytovatel má na Bookingu krásně nafocený prostorný apartmán s 2 ložnicema a s balkonovýmy okny, ale ve skutečnosti ubytovává na jiné adrese. Po příletu hned druhý den jsme se snažili s ubytovatelem zkontaktovat před Booking, ale nereagoval nám ani jim. Zaplatili jsme hodně peněz za strašnou úrověň ubytování. Proto jsme se rozhodla byt nafotit a nenechat si tuhle špatnou zkušenost pouze pro sebe. Londýn jsme si moc užili, jen vracet se do bytu bylo hodně nepříjemné.

Pleasant

6.0

Staff were attentive to emails/requests.grocery stores nearby. Walkable to train stations and some good restaurants. Close to St. Paul's Cathedral.

− If you have more than 2 persons this apartment #17 is not great. Too small. Most pictures show an open door this did not, not enough sitting/lounge area. No air conditioning but can't open the windows as too loud!! Works well for a night or two but not long stay..

Host was very nice, He came for us immediately even though it was still noon. We entered the flat and everything was really fine. 100% recommended!

− No cooling AC...... It was hot in London in July. There was only a fan.
