8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2017
We staid here during a heat wave... so our impressions are governed by the fact that the apartment's glass walls make you choose between privacy and ventilation. Everything is quite nice and functional with the possible exception that the bath/shower is a little treacherous. Maybe add a grab bar? or include a non-slip shower pad? Also, for hot weather, need a lighter cover than the heavy winter comforter which would be lovely in winter.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2016
Overall we were very pleased and definitely recommend Umberto's sleek, modern, well appointed and very clean condo.
Umberto was very prompt with emails and provided excellent information about the condo, wifi, transportation, things to do nearby as well as great information about restaurants, grocers, even art galleries! (The Jeff Koons gallery and lunch at Pharmacy2 were definite highlights!) Barbara, Umberto's housekeeper, did an excellent job and was very helpful.
With its high ceilings, tall doors, expansive windows, minimalist white decor and excellent space utilization this condo and its site with courtyard fountain and reflecting pool were a modernist treat.
The only two things we needed to manage for were: that while the bed is described as a "king" for North Americans it is not quite a "queen" so at 6'3" it was a bit of a squeeze, but otherwise quite comfortable; and secondly, taxis and uber had a lot of trouble finding us but we found telling them "99 Lollard Street" completely solved that.
We highly recommend Umberto and his terrific condo!
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2016
The apartment was awesome! We got to experience the locals view of London, eating at neighborhood pubs, taking different types of public transportation, visiting the local market, and relaxing in a very comfortable apartment every night. It was easy to get to every tourist attraction, and peacefully quite on the patio when we were done. Loved it and I would go back to the same apartment again.
