Stylish 1 bedroom in Covent Garden with terrace

The stairs are a little daunting especially with luggage!

This is an amazing rooftop apartment in the heart of Seven Dials with great facilities and excellent location

Need to walk up a few flights of very narrow stairs with your luggage but luckily we only had carry on so wasn’t too bad

Sole, the host, was great to deal with and was very accommodating. We were able to check in a little earlier and check out a little later, which was a great help with our travel plans. Thanks, Sole.

This was the third time in four years my wife and I have been to London. Each time we have stayed in Covent Garden, and for us it's a fantastic place to be, so this apartment was great for that. The space is huge, much bigger then what we really needed. It truly is more like a full time home for someone to stay in for an extended period. The kitchen had everything we needed and there was more then enough space in the fridge and freezer for leftovers. The hosts were also super accommodating and got us in earlier then the listed time and we are very thankful for that.

As most reviews mention the stairs can be a problem for those with mobility issues, but we knew that going in, so just understand there are about 80 steps in total including two flights in the flat. We were happy to see that they added a pull down curtain in the bathroom so when you did shower the water stayed in the tub, but the water pressure itself was very disappointing. There are also no dressers in the bedroom which was an annoyance since we were there for 9 nights and had to live out of our suitcases the entire time. We were disappointed at the washer/dryer situation. The person who let us in showed us where they were but when we looked at the binder with instructions for the flat it said the dryer was broken and not to use it, something she never originally mentioned. And it doesn't look like they will be fixing it anytime soon since the page with that note is laminated. The binder does say you can dry your clothes using the washing machine, something we have done before, however the washing machine in this flat does not have that function and wasn't anything like the one pictured in the binder. The instructions for using the intercom and buzzing someone in also didn't match up with the reality of what was there. In the listing, the pictures online showed an Eames style lounge chair and another smaller one in the living room, but they weren't there for our stay. Lastly, the flat only has one small fan and because of the size of the place and the fact that it's a loft bedroom on the second level it tends to trap heat up there. (There is a cabinet next to the bed that appears to have a heater in it that got very hot as well.) So if you want to stay cool at night you'll need to carry it back and forth for your stay. UPDATE: To address response-Both chairs were missing. Instruction book lists name for intercom to buzz someone in, outside lists only Flat numbers. Book says washer will dry clothes, but not the same model.
