central accommodation
amazing location essential facilities consistently pleasant temperature
the location proved convenient. i found access to various amenities quite simple. the temperature inside remained consistently pleasant , even though it was january. the flat contained all essential facilities.
the staircase leading to the apartment was somewhat narrow. this could present a challenge with mobility issues. this staircase may be difficult to climb.

super central location!!!
central location bright living room
the location was perfect! it was close to bars, restaurants, shops and the tube station. the living room was bright and airy and i found plenty of space in the apartment.
the hallway was shabby and the stairs were steep and narrow. this made it difficult to access the apartment.
Dining
8/10
i noticed a great noodle bar just below the apartments, convenient for eating in or taking away. the cab ride from charing cross was cheap, but i could have easily walked in about ten minutes. it was very accessible!

a mixed bag of nuts
complex reservation steep stairs
the location really was quite something.
The pre-check-in process involved uploading what was like my entire medical history. It was hardly straightforward. i wasn't thrilled about the extra deposit either, nearly triple the cost of the stay and paid through some website i'd never seen before. plus, finding the place was like a treasure hunt involving narrow, steep stairs. Not ideal with luggage.

great location needed amenities simple access convoluted procedures damage deposit invasive questions
The location was great. The apartment had all needed amenities. Access to the hotel was simple (I found it very convenient). Communication with the agency was positive.
The pre-check-in procedures felt convoluted. I had to read the fine print because I did not realize a damage deposit was required. I was asked numerous times about the reason for my stay (it felt a bit invasive).
