Great spot from which to explore London. This apartment is a great value in a good location. It is clean, week kept place and comfortably housed our family of 5 for a week. It does not have “high-end” finishes/furnishings, but at close to half the price of those that do, it’s a great value for those, like us, who are spending most of the time out and about in the city. Ricky was a very responsive and helpful host when we needed.

My family of six were all very comfortable in this charming London flat. We found the location perfect- on a quintessential quiet column-lined British neighborhood, yet steps away from the bustling Tube station, shops and grocery stores. We ate several meals from the functional kitchen, at the spacious dining table. The flat was clean with plenty of room for our suitcases and hanging closet space. We appreciated the snacks after a long travel day. This was the perfect home base to see London. Highly recommend it! Just keep in mind that it is a quiet building, so be respectful to the neighbors 😀

The absolute best aspect of this apartment is the location - in the heart of south Kensington, minutes from a tube station, walkable to museums & restaurants. Ricky was a great host, very quick communication. The place was also incredibly clean and we appreciated some home-like amenities you don't always find in European apartments like a washer/dryer, full kitchen, and two bathrooms. We had 4 adults + 3 kids and by the end of the week, we felt a a little cramped - I would say this apartment is perfect for two couples or one family. Also note that it's located in a residential apartment building so there may be maintenance or other normal apartment things (maintenance had to come in while we were staying there to check a leak for example) so if you're looking for a more "hotel" stay, this is more homey and lived-in which was great for us with kids. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

Good neighborhood. Convenient to S. Kensington attractions.

This apartment was so nice and clean. Ricky was a great host and answered all my questions before and during my stay. We had such a great time!

The "by 26 Courtfield Gardens" title is misleading. This apartment isn't at 26... only after much rambling in an email was the real address disclosed. The owner spends way too much time and energy providing "don't do this, don't do that" rules for the customer. They're in the emails, in a (lame) binder in the apartment, and even written on the shower curtain! The apartment was supposed to have Futons - there were NONE! Instead, there were some twin mattresses leaning against walls. In the kitchen, there were dishes with food stuck on them. The place had ugly furnishings and nothing went together. The pieces in the place were old and beat up. The leather couch, which was a focal point in the photo on the VRBO website, was the only decent thing in the entire unit. Unfortunately, there was an ugly slip cover over it that didn't even fit. This place was filled with a bunch of unwanted crap that you might see leftover after a garage sale has been held. The mattresses were old and overused, with big dents where people had lain. The sheets were cheap, scratchy, with stains. The bath towels were also well past their prime, thin and scratchy, certainly nothing I would offer guests, and past the point where they would become car washing towels. In both bathrooms, the water in the shower pulsed hot and cold; it wasn't a constant temperature. And both sinks had separate hot and cold faucets, which meant choosing between scalding hot water, and frigid cold water.

This 2 BR 2 BA flat is in a very convenient location, close to supermarkets, restaurants, transportation, etc. We really liked that it had 2 bathrooms. The lounge can be set up as a 3rd place to sleep, and has a door that can be closed. There is a short flight of stairs into the building, and another short flight to the flat (lift does not go there). Host is very responsive. Flat was very clean, kitchen is set up with most everything you need, and includes a dishwasher. Washer/dryer is a combo unit. We would definitely stay here again!

It was fantastic, perfect place to get around town
