"Per the reviews, we knew it was an older property but the service and set up was perfect for our family. To have two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a living area for the price was amazing. And the staff was so kind a helpful. In addition, it was a great location: near a major tube stop, a direct shot if you take the train from Heathrow, and a grocery store and great restaurants nearby. Highly recommend for families traveling to London."
