This property was perfect for us. We felt well supported in our planning by the host and upon arrival by the concierge. The location of the flat was outstanding! Everything was as described in the listing. The flat was very near public transportation and lots of attractions. Anthony, the host, was nearly always available to answer questions and give suggestions. I just could not have asked for more.

Spacious, beautiful apartment on the 7th floor of a well maintained building in an excellent location. Also appreciated the amenities, as well as the big windows throughout with great views. Anthony, the host, was gracious and kind. Really appreciated that he allowed us to check in a bit early after a long train ride. Would definitely recommend the apartment to anyone looking for a great place to stay in London.

Beautiful Flat just minutes from Tower Hill Station

This property was gorgeously decorated, offering a full flat that is perfect for a single person or couple. We stayed for 5 days, choosing to eat breakfast and drink our coffee each day at the flat; we also did our laundry - which was great too! Additionally, Anthony offered us an umbrella, basic toiletries, quite a few towels, and kitchen basics. The flat is a 3-5 minute walk from the train station - which is certainly a bonus!We are from Canada, which means air conditioning and scent free is very common. Our only advice is if you are like us and used to these things, just note that fans are offered and scented items are present at this property. It wasn't an issue for us, but we did notice.Overall, we highly recommend this peoperty, and to work with Anthony (he is a very nice person!)Thanks, Anthony! We hope to stay at your flat again sometime

Great location, lovely, clean property.

Anthony was great at communicating and the location was absolutely fantastic. A few tiny things in the apartment could use fixing, but Anthony does supply all kinds of shampoo and amenities behind a mirror in the bathroom. The washer dryer was very handy, although I suggest running the fan while you’re using them.

Perfectly Situated Apartment!

Anthony's apartment in London was wonderful. Had all the amenities one needs and was so close to so many sights. Five minute walk to the Tower of London, the Uber boat, local pubs and Wetherspoons. Calum was a gem and very helpful with tips and suggestions. Anthony met us at the property and showed us all the ins and outs of the apartment. The apartment itself was exactly as described - roomy, bright and beautiful views of Trinity House and the Gherkin at night. A true haven in a busy city.We loved our stay and if we come back to London again we'll be making a bee line for Anthony's apartment. A true hidden gem. Thank you Anthony!

Perfect Set-up

The apartment was spacious with floor to ceiling windows and everything we needed for a two-week stay. There were quite a few items you always need for your first day or two already in the cupboards and the refrigerator. The bed was comfortable as was the living room furniture. Having a washer/dryer was an added bonus along with the heated drying rack. Additionally, having a doorman and a locked front entry made us feel especially safe. We would rent the same place again.

Comfortable apartment in the heart of London

The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed to be comfortable for our stay. Great view of the "Gherkin" building, and a partial view of the Shard. Even though it's in the middle of a bustling area, the apartment was very quiet, we weren't disturbed by outside noise at all, nor indoor from neighbors. The concierges in the building were extremely helpful on our arrival and departure, a real boon when you are moving luggage. Communications with owner Anthony were very easy. The apartment is located a short walk from 3 underground stations and a national rail station, offering a multitude of different rail lines to get anywhere in London or beyond - so, a brilliant location. We could get to both sides of the Thames with very short walks, and enjoyed many different restaurants, pubs and attractions. Hopping on the underground and using tap-to-pay made day trips so easy. Recommendations for things to do and see (and not): - The Shard - The View at the Shard is a little spendy but well worth it. - Afternoon Tea at Ting, in the Shard... honestly, very very expensive and not worth the price. Do The View at the Shard instead, and go somewhere else for afternoon tea. - Discount Suit Company cocktail bar is in walking distance and very fun. - The Attendant cafe - well worth the trip to get an excellent breakfast or lunch in a very different kind of place! We look forward to returning here in the future when we go back to London again. Thanks for hosting, Anthony!

Christmas in Nov

We enjoyed our stay very much. Anthony dropped off some shopping for us which was very thoughtful. The location was great, so easy to get around London on the tube or uber boat. You can walk to so many of the sights and the Thames is just a very short walk. Easy to fly into Heathrow and catch a tube from the airport and Tower Hill tube station is a very quick walk. Our plane arrived early and we were able to leave our luggage with the concierge at the front desk while the flat was getting ready so we could go and visit the sights. He was so helpful and friendly. Look forward to staying there again in the future

Wonderful Location and Accommodations!!!

My wife and I spent 2 weeks in London and loved Anthony’s flat! It was all that was described and more! He welcomed us and showed us everything that we needed to know, there’s also an extensive guide book that thoroughly explains how everything works. It was wonderful being just a block away from the historical Tower of London and Tower Bridge and the views from the flat were great! We spent each day exploring London and it was great being so close to the flat when exiting the Tower Hill Underground station! Calum, at the front desk, was a wealth of knowledge and was happy to share shopping, eating and more with us!! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and/or stay at Anthony’s any time finding ourselves in London!!!

We could not recommend this property, nor Anthony, enough. He met us at the apartment and gave us a tour explaining how everything worked, there was a folder with further instructions as well as information on London, the tube and some great pubs! The apartment was spotlessly clean and the location was the best, close to tube stations, buses and river transport. Thanks for a great stay Anthony!

Location and Value

This flat provides immediate access to the Tower Hill Station which allows freedom to go anywhere very quickly. There are several good restaurants nearby and of course the Tower of London. The flat has it all and is spacious - though we never cooked - we were too busy. Despite the railway below the bedroom window, it is peaceful. Anthony was a good host and Calum, the building manager is awesome as well. Very pleased on all accounts.

Great location!

All good, except I was quite hot. I turned the thermostat off in the bedroom, but it was still hot in the apartment. I didn't cook at the apartment, because I couldn't figure out the appliances. I was able to make coffee. I was only able to heat food in the microwave, because it had a clear 30 second button. Furniture is not too comfortable, but we weren't there much. Loved Cullum at the reception desk...what an entertaining fellow:)
