Hoxton Square Penthouse

The space was nice. We didn't use the full kitchen facilities - only the electric kettle, coffee maker and put a few drinks in the refrigerator. Had a good view of some of the skyline. especially at night. Bed was comfortable. Lots of fluffy towels and a great pillowtop mattress cover for the futon/pull out sofa bed.

No lift. Really should be noted in the property discription. People with bad knèes or limited mobility would have issues. Four stories with luggage can be a bear. Krys (who met us to let us in) did help us move the luggage up. Of course I noticed others mentioned this in reviews AFTER (my bad) but it should be noted. I also noticed the handles on drawers and closet doors hasn't been addressed yet. As I mentioned, we didn't use the kitchen facilities - but it was weird to have to open the refrigerator if you wanted to open the drawer for flatware - no handles, so I had to open the refrigerator to get a fingertip in the drawer top to open. Balcony didn't have pergola (cover) or cushions as in the photos. Cobwebs and debris on the balcony, but it's outdoors and still early in the spring so maybe that's why no cushions and it wasn't very tidy. It looked like a new television was delivered, but was leaning against the wall still in the box. My husband was going to hook it up and put the smaller one in the bedroom, but we just left it as it was and thought it was peculiar. No plugs in bathroom... Also not a washcloth to be found. I used a hand towel the first night, then ended up buying a wash cloth at M & S the next day. Using a hand towel as a wash cloth was a bit heavy and comical. Shower seemed unsafe. Very slick and gloss tile with no grab bars. I nearly fell through the shared window with the living room. Just wacked my noodle on the window frame and my left knee on the tile floor. (Not great when you have to go down and up 4 flights of stairs). The shower would be better if there was a seat or grab bar... maybe a removable rubber bath mat with grip. if the detachable head didn't leak. It's not a fitting issue, but the head itself that leaks... likely from someone grabbing it like a grab bar.

Marta was a great host. Great communication! Apartment is well located and equipped with everything you need.
