Exceptional Mews House in Chelsea

The location was amazing

Not clean, lack of basic amenities (a simple pasta strainer for example) very tricky with all those stairs when travelling with a 2 year old .

The location was excellent, within easy walking distance of the South Kensington tube stop, bus stops, and a good selection of restaurants and cafés. The flat itself was bright on the upper floor where the kitchen is, with plenty of natural light. The beds were comfortable. There was plenty of storage space in the bedrooms. The interior was tastefully designed, with a cosy TV area. The hosts were very responsive and attentive.

There were a few aspects that could be improved. There appeared to be a water leakage issue, as the flooring on the upper level was lifted by the fridge (potential issue with the fridge door despite we used it very minimally) and there was visible mould on the ceiling above the bathroom. The bathroom door handle was broken upon arrival, though it was promptly repaired, which we appreciated. The bathroom sink was rather small, with the tap positioned very close to the basin, making it somewhat difficult to wash hands comfortably. In addition, there was a fan or ventilation unit at the top of the entrance door that created a bit of noise at night.

la gentilezza e disponibilità degli ospiti. L’ubicazione. Il quartiere. Cucina e salotto

Lage war toll, Nähe U-Bahn und Busse. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Dachterrasse im Sommer ist sicherlich sehr angenehm. Spülmaschine und Waschmaschine gut und einfach zu bedienen. Von der Ausstattung her war alles da.

Fotos waren wie immer besser als die Realität. Funktional aber ohne Charme. Das ganze Haus stank bestialisch nach chlorhaltigen Reinigungsmitteln. Wir brauchten 3 Tage und einige Duftkerzen, um den Geruch herauszubekommen. Eines der Schlafzimmer war fensterlos, wie auch das Badezimmer. Der Porzellangriff der Toilette war gebrochen. Keine Handbrause und die Kopfbrause war so nah an der Wand, dass man jedes Mal klatschnasse Haare hatte. Temperatur ließ sich auch nicht wirklich einstellen. Die Badezimmerdecke war voller Schimmel. Das Badezimmer müsste dringend renoviert werden.
