This was in an excellent location! Close to Earls Court underground and local supermarkets. Place was really quiet and off the main streets which was a huge plus for us. Finally, the property manager was very responsive and checked in with us often. Perfect place for 5 days. Highly recommend! If we come back we will be sure to stay here again.

London Stay

Checkin was easy, the accommodations were adequate. The floor was not level and weak in places which made me wonder if it had ever been inspected, but it held up ok.there were some small issues: no diffuser on the bath faucet, lights under the kitchen cabinet did not work, shower curtain was too short, and the fit and finish of the kitchen sink was poor. The AC was great. The pillows were perfect. Over all, I would prefer to have had a more well cared for place to stay.

Great location in London but not a King bed

We had a nice stay at the Knaresborough. The location is fantastic, quiet neighborhood but several great pubs, coffee shops nearby. The Earls Court Tube stop gives easy access around London. The studio was clean and the AC worked well. There was a heat wave while we were in London so extra important to have a nice cool room. The bathroom was of good size but the setup is odd, the shower is small, the curtain even smaller, keeping the water contained to the shower wasn’t an option. We made it work but less than ideal. Great value for the cost but have to moderate expectations. The only thing that we disliked was the advertisement indicated King bed, big reason we chose the property. Definitely not a King bed, think it was just a misstatement, not sure the room could actually hold a King bed anyway. For a brief visit with just the two of us this was a good option. Very helpful team supporting while we were there.

Great location, great communication

We quickly felt right at home in the cozy studio. You are so close to the Tube and many eateries. There wasn’t any storage space to unpack your suitcase, but if you are flexible, that is worth giving up for a very comfortable bed, warm powerful shower, and lots of check ins to be sure you are satisfied.

The flat was amazing to stay in. It was a super easy check-in and check-out process. It is also located in a very safe area and is close to two tube stations, making it easy to get around the city. It is also a beautiful 25-minute walk to hyde park! I would definitely come again!

Good location, clean but small with a number of issues

Overall, this unit is Ok but has some quirks. We are frequent travelers and stay often in VRBO units. First the good. The unit was very clean and recently remodeled. It is very close to the underground lines. Now the not so good. The A/C had a problem in that the condensation line made a dripping sound. The bathroom sinks were super small. You couldn’t wash your face or brush your teeth without also soaking your feet/shoes/pants. The unit was furnished with the minimal supplies and the cheapest of furniture, appliances and fixtures possible. No staple supplies like salt, pepper, etc. There were three unlabeled 2 oz jars that might have contained 1 oz of coffee to make one cup, some stale sugar and a few tea bags. There was no safe to lock your valuables. When we arrived for our 5-night stay there was only one roll of toilet paper provided and less than an 1/8 roll of paper towels along with 2 bath towels (they did promptly provide additional supplies), but this indicates how inexpensively they try to operate. Very cheap silverware, the smallest possible flat screen TV, a very tiny microwave and a very low double bed. Furniture consisted of one plastic chair, a very small desk and one very small plastic stool. Because of minimal floor space we had to use the one chair and stool to put our suitcases on, and as a result there was no place to eat or sit other than on the very low bed. Lighting was very poor. In summary, clean and well located but very small and poorly furnished

Fantastic Small Apartment

I was more than pleased with my rental in Kensington. I had clear communication with management prior to travel, and the entry instructions couldn't have been more clear or simple. The description that resulted in my booking was an accurate portrayal of the property, with the added surprise bonus of a great view of the neighborhood. The one down side was that the shower didn't have a door or curtain. Not disastrous, by any means, but the one minus in an otherwise perfect accommodation. I couldn't be more pleased with the rental space or the value.
