The high point is the location - central to everything with just steps to Chinatown and Covent Garden area. It’s convenient with many bus lines and taxis around, making it easy to see main London attractions. However, I was deeply disappointed in how run down the place was and far from being a “luxury” flat as described in the description. I imagine it likening to Peter Parker’s New York apartment in Spider Man 3 - sticky doors, slanted floors, derelict stairs, rough paint job, renovated in the style of “landlord’s special.” I don’t recommend small children or anyone with mobility issues to stay. The tub is extremely dangerous as it requires you to step out of an unusually tall tub to the floor that is down a step BELOW your originating step. Also, the bunk bed steps would not be appropriate for anyone younger than 10 years old as the rungs are far apart. On top of that, just because it’s so old, the floors are uneven, and even the flight of stairs outside is unleveled; I felt like I was in a fun house. We are counting our lucky stars that no one fell and got hurt as we were traveling with an elderly and small children. We voiced our concerns and the host was very apologetic but alas no cancellations. Well, we stuck with it - but we won’t choose this accommodation again.
