The London Nest: 2BR City Haven

3 of us (a couple and I) stayed in the apartment for a long weekend. Check in was late in the day - we weren’t able to check in before 3pm. There is a convenience store around the corner where you can leave your luggage for a small fee if you arrive in the am and don’t want to lug your suitcase around town. The apartment is just like the photo. There is a spacious master Br with a bath, a smaller BR with a hall bath, a small courtyard, a small parlour and a larger room that serves as kitchen and living room. The kitchen appliances are all new and the home users guide is very good. The apartment is a level down from street level, so you can hear/feel the nearby underground line, but I didn’t find it disruptive- it was bout like staying near the ocean and hearing the waves. There is a heavy iron gate at street leveL with a padlock. I found it hard to see the numbers on the lock, and the gate is difficult to maneuver. So that might be a limitation for older or handicapped guests. the smoke alarm was chirping my first night but the rental agency sent someone the next morning to fix it. the neighborhood is safe and busy. There are good pubs and restaurants within a couple of blocks. The tube station is a 5 min walk, and Regents park and the British Museum are both about 10 min away. Overall it was a very good stay.

We had a wonderful time in London. The location of this property is ideal. Restaurants, pubs and stores within a very short walk. Did not realize it was in the lower floor and had to navigate steps, but not a major issue. The patios were not cleaned but the property inside was. A little musty smell but not strong. Property management was excellent to deal with.

The property was wonderful and quite large. There were 4 of us that stayed there and loved how close it was to restaurants, the theater district and so many local attractions. The company was incredible about their communcation with me and even when I had a little hiccup at check in, they helped to correct it right away. I will stay here the next time I come back to London. It was a fantastic stay!

This apartment is in a great location and the fact that it is a basement apartment it was fairly cool. There were many little cafes nearby which were very convenient for us. It could use a little TLC. The photos posted were obviously taken many years ago. We were a little disappointed in that the patio areas were so dirty and full of bugs that we could not use them or open the windows for air.
