The landlord kept coming onto the property without asking, despite it being in the middle of a global pandemic... when I finally asked him to give me notice if he wanted to come onto the property for shed access, he started saying that he didn't know I had a dog (he did, we discussed it directly before I arrived at the property) so it felt directly retaliatory. He also continued to come onto the property with minimal notice. This is also illegal, and I think future guests should be aware that the landlord will not respect your privacy at all.

Apartment was comfortable and worked well. It was in a quiet neighbourhood and had tube stop, grocery stores, etc. nearby. Help was available when needed. I would stay there again.

The apartment is bright, clean, modern and comfortable, with all that you would need for a comfortable stay. The station is a pleasant walk away through the park and the trains run every 3 minutes into central London, which is only around 25 to 30 minutes away. Simon responded promptly to messages. We had a problem with the key being missing from the key box, but it was dealt with promptly. We would definitely stay again.

Loved our stay here. Really clean and tidy which is so important to us. Simon was an excellent host. We would definitely stay here again when we next come back to London.

The apartment was clean and orderly. We had all of the appliances we needed except a microwave. We had three bath towels and no hand towels. Simon found two hand towels for us, but there were three people... Like much of Europe, there’s no AC and it was a bit warm when we were there, but if you open the windows, it should provide enough draft to make the apartment quite comfortable. The room is on the second floor (this would be considered the third floor to Americans). The ground floor is 0. The room is ideal for 2, but you can have a third person, especially if it’s a child. It’s about a 5-10 minute walk to the Colindale station which takes you into town (25 minutes). There are several good restaurants about 5-10 minutes away walking. I recommend the breakfast at ITJL at the Colindale station. There’s a children’s playground between the room and the Colindale station. When we arrived, our key wasn’t in the key lock box, but Simon quickly responded and brought us a key. Overall there were no problems with the room. Not immaculate but nothing bad at all. It’s a little piece out from London proper but easily accessible and decently priced. Taxis and Uber are available. Flat rate taxi to Gatwick is $70-75. That will probably be cheaper than Uber.
