In the plus column: VERY convenient location, relatively quiet street, nice natural light, high ceilings give spacious feel, plenty of hot water, mattresses were very comfortable, full-sized fridge and freezer, some basic condiments included. In negative column: No instructions with appliances--we couldn't get the TV or the clothes dryer to work. Dining chairs and sofa uncomfortable, showerhead would not stay in place so hands-free shower was difficult, 2nd bedroom not big enough to accommodate more than one person (bed against wall, minimal floor space, one very small closet), kitchen sink in very awkward position, steep narrow staircase to go from dingy lobby to flat's front door. I have been to London numerous times. There are much nicer apartments in the same price range.
