Location is accessable for center of London.
8 / 10Excellent·May 2024
Frankie's apartment is very conveniently located in Holborn a short walk from many sights and amenities, including the Holborn tube station and the British Museum. The bustling neighbourhood has lots of restaurants and shops, and we especially loved the Lamb's Conduit area. With the police station so close by, though, it is a bit noisy at all times of day. The apartment itself is pretty basic and somewhat worn (broken tiles, chipped sink, bathroom could stand painting) and doesn't quite live up to Frankie's description of "blinking gorgeous". However, the online description is accurate with the exception of "spaces: kitchen, office". The only thing that could be considered an office would be the table in the kitchen/lounge space. The bedroom is separate, but small - hubby kept his suitcase in the lounge. Bedroom storage is plentiful, but most of it is either above head height or occupied (e.g. vacuum cleaner). I would have liked a night table and light. Note that the washer and dryer are in the stairwell outside the apartment door. Communication with the manager was excellent and friendly. They checked in with us after arrival and responded quickly. Overall, I would say this is a good apartment for people who value location and convenience over luxury.

The unit is exactly as shown in the picture. Although when I booked the unit it said dishwasher and nespresso machine, but actually the unit did not have a dishwasher and the nespresso machine was missing. Communicated with the management and they rectified the nespresso machine quickly, and apologized for the erroneous listing details. It’s a nice quiet unit but on the 3 floor with no lift and a narrow staircase (was a little challenging for my big suitcase). Good location, walking distance to a lot of things, and I enjoyed my walks to Covent Garden. Great value for the money, I will stay here again if the opportunity arises in the future.
6 / 10Average·May 2024
The bed was not comfy at all and is well past its use by date - you can feel every spring in the bed and sleeping was difficult. The rubbish bin bag was also not removed after the previous stay. The towel rail also is set at burning hot which is quite dangerous. On a positive, the location and property amenities were good and the host was responsive when we reported these issues. Lastly, we would recommend that the host get some curtains for the windows as light streaming in also made it incredibly difficult to sleep as the blinds are well past their use by date.
