Location is fab. it was fab for me as I went for notting hill carnival and needed a spot extremely near by. it was important to me that I could cook for Myself as I like to feel well fed and know what I'm eating. little supermarket shops nearby were extremely helpful. goldhawk station 5 minute walk away. residents in the other apartments were polite and people around the area, also very polite.
reception building is separate to apartment which is a bit annoying when you jave lots of luggage but was no more than a 2 min walk away. you return key to this same place.
reception staff were nice enough. nothing particularly stood out about their service but they were nice!
on my arrival, I was told I was upgraded from a studio to a 1 bed. this made me extremely happy. it was much more spacious. decor was modern and there was even a little balcony area.
please be aware there is no lift. I was on the first floor and had a large suitcase but I managed just a warning to those with potentially mobility issues.
everything in the kitchen worked and was fine. the cooker felt a bit thrown in like an afterthought though. it did what it needed to though and I was thankful. there is two stairs down to the kitchen so another one to be aware of if you have mobility issues.
the only thing that makes this a 4 star is there were NO CURTAINS IN THE BATHROOM. I had to make a makeshift curtain with a towel they gave every time I was in the bathroom. this was not great. I was nervous those walking by would see me on the toilet or bathing. not okay at all.
walls are a bit thin but not enough to stop me sleeping. could just hear people going up and down stairs in the living area. I didn't hear anything in the bedroom whilst I slept.
I will book again next year! hoping I get an upgrade again. I fear the studio won't be worth the amount of money I paid now I have tasted the goodness of the 1 bed appt!
