This place advertised free parking and we paid a tax to drive into London. What a joke when we arrived there: there was no parking!!!! The lady said it was a hotels.com mistake not theirs. She said I was not her client and I could look for a parking but there was nothing she could do to help. Very deceiving!!! There was no toilet rolls and the lady said we could check out later but at 10:00 cleaners were knocking on the door even though they knew I wasn’t there at that time and that my daughters were sleeping. From beginning to the end disappointing!!

Great spacious apartment, close to all the great cocktail bars
vår leilighet var noe skuffende. Senger var korte og knirket. Stoler med løs rygg. Bråk fra nabo leilighet. Toalett som ikke virket som det skulle. De har en jobb å gjøre.
Check in and Out times are wrong on VRBO website.
Property manager never answered repeated questions made through the VRBO website.
Paid in full through VRBO website at booking. Online account never reflected payment just payment due. But a different website I was referred to did show payment.
Central to Holburn and Russel undergrouns spacious everything you need.

While advertised as apartments these are in fact student accomodation so be prepared for lots of noise. We were unaware of this and had to deal with students coming and going at all hours of the night, congregating on the apartment steps between 11-2am to chat and smoke. Management advised us after the fact that there is security guard to assist with these issues. Also had the fire alarm go off 4 times during our stay, apparently the students made dinner.
Although the accomodation was relatively large, the furniture (sofa and beds) were very old and tired. The doors in the apartment including the front door were heavy fire doors and banged shut all the time, day and night. Great location but I would definitely not recommend this apartment to anyone unless you’re a student.
The property is in a good location, close to main railway stations and museums. However the overall condition isn’t as good as the photos suggest. You’re not booking the apartment in the image (with wall art and cushions) but one of several apartments which are subject to the wear and tear of student living.
Prachtige ligging, ruim appartement. Meubilair was oud, sanitair idem. Twee douches, bij 1 liep water veel te langzaam weg waardoor je heel snel moest douchen om geen overstroming te krijgen. Bij aankomst was appartement niet klaar (bedden waren niet opgemaakt) wat niet een heel fijn welkom was. Een droogdoek in de keuken had fijn geweest. Keuken minimaal uitgerust, zelf koken was niet echt een optie. Verder prima.
It's just few minutes from Great British Museum, There are enough Space for 6 people and Bathroom. While We stay, Some heaters not working - But We have to send e-mail for Claim... It means, They will come after they read e-mails.. It was little bit inconvenience.

Basic student apartment in good location
Our stay in the apartment was fine- the location and the size of the apartment were fantastic. Staff very friendly and easy to work with. It’s definitely not lux and was setup for students—i.e 4 single beds, 4 sets of flatware, 4 chairs, etc— but technically had everything we needed!
Tres bien situé. Facile d’acces soit du metro ou du train. L’établissement est bien sauf que la propreté de la salle de bain specialement de la douche laisse à désirer.
The 2-bedroom apartment was great for our family of 4 with grownup children for a very reasonable price. There were 2 bathrooms even though the apartment was listed with 1 bathroom. We stayed at 13 Bedford place and the office attende 24 hours is at 19 Bedford place. Great location around the corner from the British museum, very close to Piccadilly line underground that goes directly to Heathrow. Few grocery stores and restaurants nearby. Walking distance to Coventry Garden, Piccadilly Circus, the theaters. The street is very quiet and we felt safe returning late at night. Great stay overall.

God plads og værdi for pengene
Fin beliggenhed og meget plads i lejligheden. Senge var gode men øvrige møbler var noget slidte. Lejligheden lå i underetagen.
