This property is in a great location. The lady at the front desk was extremely nice and helpful. Our biggest issue with the room was the toilet would hardly flush. We called shortly after checking in, and the lady said we can use the one in the room next to us, which was nice. There was no other room available for our family of 5. A repair man came after about an hour. Unfortunately the repair man, who was very nice, was in our room until after 9pm attempting to repair the toilet. About 3 hours. I told him we had to wake up early, and he finished up soon after. The next morning the man at the desk was going to charge me a service fee for something, I’m not sure what, and I told him about the problem the night before, and he didn’t charge me. The room looks very worn. The floor looks very bad. Otherwise, everything was ok

Beds were a -2 rating. My roll away bed looked like it was decades old and very uncomfortable. Never cleaned our room after telling housekeeping we were leaving room in 5 minutes and they never bothered to return. Told receptionist about the issue and not helpful at all and didn’t take care of the request. Worst experience ever.

Our request to check in earlier was only available for a fee. If the room was available, why not let your guest settle in after having a long day without charging a fee. The beds, linen and pillows were very comfy. The apartment could use some plants or decor to brighten it up a little. I did not like the stains on the tile in the bathroom and would recommend having a manual available for your guest to use the washing machine and thermostat. On a more positive note, thanks for relocating us to another apartment without any issues after we discovered a sever leak in the bathroom ceiling.

Nice but not great

The place was nice but definitely showing signs of wear and tear. For how nice it was I think it was a little overpriced. Also, they add a 5% service charge at check in… It is located in more of a business area with easy access to the bus and underground. Lots of dining options within walking distance. Employees were all polite and helpful.

Our First Try of an Aparthotel Not so Sure

There was an air conditioner in the room that did not work. The kitchen did not have complete service for two. On our second night, the cieling in the bathroom began leaking. After pressure from us, the management switched our room. Their first proposed solution was that we use a bathroom across the hall when needed. Not accpetable!

Not luxurious but it is a three room apartment with kitchen living area and bedroom. Very tall bathtub; it’s a big step into tub for a shower. There is heat and AC and a fan. Espresso machine was baffling, we never figured out the oven. Microwave and kettle did work. In a busy, bustling, gritty area but fast food and better food were steps away. Pret a manger next door for coffee and breakfast. Greggs in the underground station for sausage rolls before the day is over. We would stay here again for very practical reasons. Nice desk staff and easy access by bus or rail to the whole town.

This is a middle of the road property. It’s not super nor is it disgusting. It has what you need but it’s not up to date and a tad dirty around the property. There is a tube close by which is nice for travel.

Do not stay here unless you are looking for a place that vibes “landlord special, cheap, not maintained, bachelor apartment”. The pictures they present are not accurate as each unit is apparently different. There is no relaxing, homey vibe the pictures suggest. It’s above a bar and the windows on the front of the building are old single pane and DO NOT block ANY noise. We were in 201 and could hear word for word conversations happening on the street when we were in the living area. In our apartment the bedrooms were on the back of the building and it was much quieter in there. I am including video of the mold in the bathroom, dingy tub, and general disrepair. England is full of “older” units but this one didn’t really try to be presentable. Cons-You can hear the people walking in the apartment above you, and hear everything on the street. There were NO PROTECTIVE COVERS on the mattress or pillows. No Air Conditioning available. Has washer/dryer combo but ours would not hold the door closed. Front door deadbolt didn’t work. Pros- high ceilings, big rooms, very close to tube station and restaurants. Towels and sheets seemed clean. Top surfaces of counters seemed clean.

This was a great place to stay just across from the Liverpool Street Station. The apartment was very spacious and met our needs. Note that there is not air conditioning, but the fan was great. It was also great to be able to park our luggage before check-in and after check-out. Thanks!

This hotel is not for sleeping

They are good and bad parts of the location of the hotel. The good part is that is directly across the road from a main line train station with good links to the airport and Central London. The bad part is that the hotel is directly above two very busy bars and a bus stop. If you plan to get any sleep then this should not be the hotel for you. There's also street lights that shine directly into the rooms that are street-facing. They do not have any curtains in the rooms, so the rooms are lit up all the night. As for the noise that is outside, you will definitely feel that you are in the middle of the bar at 1:00 in the morning. The hotel does offer rollaway beds but these are not rollaway beds, they'll be giving you air mattresses. This hotel is really only suitable for bachelor /bachelorette parties who are in town for the night life and transport connections. Inside the apartments, it's pretty limited and basic, but good enough for young party goers.

This apartment was amazing - plenty of space for a family, and lots of natural light. The neighborhood is full of restaurants and shopping opportunities, and there are 2 grocery stores within a block or two. The Liverpool Street Tube station is across the street, making transportation easy. I think the Tower of London is within walking distance, but we didn't walk it. The only downside was that our apartment was on the 5th floor, and the elevator was not working while we were there. Given that the lobby is on the ground floor, trudging up five floors with luggage was not pleasant.
