Cosy studio on the Thames

L'emplacement et la simplicité des locaux.

L'humidité dans la salle de bain.

Good location nice residential area close to the Embankment, great walk to work, felt safe as a lone female leaving and returning to the property on foot in the dark. Good products in the bathroom. TV had good channel selection. Bed and linen were very good. Lots of storage for clothes if there for a longer period but could not open the drawers as sliding door did not go across far enough. I didn’t need them but would have been annoying if longer stay. Great to have a hairdryer and a fan in warmer weather. I did not use the outside seating area but looked nice. Very good for a 3 night unscheduled work visit. Would book again.

Access gate and door to property were both hard to open but most likely due to seasonal swelling, an outside sensor light would have been useful as I arrived after dark so locating to door lock etc involved using a torch on my phone. I could not find a light switch close to the door on entering the property. It was dark and I had to find my way across the room to turn the bathroom light on to be able to see. The round table was far too big for the property, a smaller foldaway or different shape table with fold up style chairs would have been preferred. Slight smell of damp/mustiness each time on returning each evening but went away or I got used to it. A curtain that went across the access door would be preferred there was frosting on the middle section but the curtains on the full height glass either side did leave gaps. I did not realise there was not an oven so could not cook a pizza I had bought but the rest of the kitchen area was absolutely fine. I booked last minute on my day of arrival so had not realised no oven maybe list in the facilities no oven but this is more a mistake on my behalf. I was unexpectedly in London for work so was a quick search to find accommodation and not a more thorough research for leisure purposes. Overall cleanliness was really good, bed linen was really good. No tea towel to dry up and I could not find a plug for the sink anywhere. There was some food such as coffee and flour left by previous occupants but very out of date or dried up in bottom of containers. A great property and ideal for what I needed just a few hopefully helpful observations to improve a stay.

The Keys were easily obtainable. But someone had put a bolt across the inside of the gate and we had to contact the owner to gain access.
