The space
🛏 This is a compact studio apartment designed for 1–2 guests, ideal for a short or medium stay in London.

📐 Size: approx. 21 sqm / 226 sqft

✨ The studio is small but cleverly arranged and includes everything needed for a comfortable city base.

Inside you’ll find:
- a double bed (140 x 200 cm) with professionally laundered linen
- a well-equipped kitchenette with fridge, 2-burner induction hob, microwave, electric kettle, toaster, Nespresso machine, cookware, cutlery and dishes
- a clean private bathroom with shower and toiletries as well as a hair dryer

🌡 Comfort features include underfloor heating, an extra portable heater, dehumidifier and portable fan.

🧼 The studio is professionally cleaned before every stay and prepared with fresh towels and crisp linen.
Guest access
Clear, step-by-step check-in instructions with photos are provided through the digital Guest Portal (once pre-check-in is complete), making it simple and stress-free to locate the building and gain entry. The key collection code appears at the booked check-in time (usually 3 PM, unless early check in is booked in advance).

🚶‍♂️ The apartment is located within a residential building, in a vibrant residential area near Tube, cafés and pubs — some street traffic noise may be heard in the flat.

🏠 Guests have exclusive use of the entire studio with a private entrance through the courtyard shared with one other flat.

🪜 Lower ground floor via stairs (no lift - 15 steps precisely from the street level). Please pay attention in wet weather and with heavy luggage as steps can become slippery.

🔐 Self-check in using a key box located near the flat.

🔑 2 key sets are provided and clearly labelled for ease of use.

Other things to note
📌 We prefer to be transparent so expectations match reality — this helps create better stays and stronger 5-star experiences. To help set clear expectations:

- This is a compact lower-ground-floor studio, best suited to 1 or 2 adults
- Access is via a narrow staircase, so it may not suit guests with heavy luggage or reduced mobility
- The flat is smaller than a typical apartment, but efficiently designed and well equipped
- As it is below street level, it may feel more enclosed than an upper-floor flat
- Some guests notice street noise or sounds from above, especially because of the central location
- There is no air conditioning, but fans are provided
- The property is professionally cleaned, but this is a budget-friendly compact London studio, not a large luxury apartment

Guests with REDUCED MOBILITY, please consider:

- The apartment is on the lower ground floor and requires 15 steps to access.

- Ceiling heights may feel lower in some areas.

Travelling with CHILDREN:
- The flat is not recommended when travelling with babies as there is not enough space to set up a baby cot.

NOISE ADVISORY:
- Quiet residential area overall, though some street traffic noise may still be noticeable.

ALLERGIES & SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
- Our apartments are located in a variety of historic and modern buildings and may not be suitable for all.

- Guests with allergies or any special requirements are strongly encouraged to contact us before booking so we can help determine whether the property is suitable for their needs.

- While properties are professionally cleaned before arrival, we cannot guarantee fully allergen-free environments.

COMPLULSORY PRE-CHECK-IN AND OPTIONAL EXTRAS

To help protect our community and ensure a smooth check-in experience, we use a secure Guest Portal powered by BoomNow (our Property Management System) and Truvi (a leading guest-screening and holiday home insurance provider). Once your booking is confirmed, you’ll receive a link to complete a quick pre-check-in form and securely verify your ID.

We also offer a few optional extras, not included in your Airbnb reservation, which can be arranged separately after booking:

Early or late check-out – £15 per additional hour (before 15:00 for check-in / after 10:00 for check-out, subject to availability).

Baby equipment hire – £30 (cot without bedding, baby bath, high chair).

In-person check-in or luggage assistance – fee varies by time and availability - ask for more details.

These extras are entirely optional and offered for convenience only. If you'd like to arrange any of them, just let us know after booking.

This is a small place with everything you need for a short stay and explore the city. It’s very clean and everything was in order. The check in is very easy with a lockbox and access to Paddington and the underground and bus is very close as well.
There’s also a boat trip you can get to Camden from there which I do recommend.
