Positief: Netheid, communicatie en locatie
Overstated
The location and cleanliness of this listing are fine. The kitchen is updated; but the dishes are make do. Here's the challenges. There's 90 steep stairs to climb to access the apartment. The beds are very uncomfortable. The first floor bed is little more than a flimsy uneven box spring on the floor with a thin mattress. The second floor has one uneven hard as a rock bed and another bed with springs poking you in the back. There's 2.5 baths; but only one shower. The shower overflows after roughly 1 minute, as does the sink. So neither drains. The other full bath is a tub with a wand and no curtain or splash protection. The rooms are sparsely decorated with nowhere to sit and limited places for luggage. While we were staying the heat and hot water was off for roughly 8 hours. Given it was November in London, the apartment was damp and wet our entire stay; but perhaps because the heat was off for a period.
You get a full dose of city noise, ranging from 24x7 car traffic, people on the street late at night, subway noises and early morning jack hammers, diesel engines and hammering motorized sledges from the construction across the street.
This place is not suitable for mature adults; but would work for young people who can afford more than a hostel.
