City View Flat at Liverpool st Brick Ln

Decent location, within walking distance to lots of attractions, dining, vintage clothing stores, etc. I'm not sure where the photo in this listing is located (?), but it isn't in Unit #2, where we stayed -- which was much shabbier than what is shown in the photo, with completely useless curtains that did nothing to block out the early morning light when trying to sleep past 5am. The BIG problem, which ruined the entire stay, came when we noticed a foul odour emanating from behind the fridge and kitchen cabinets, soon after our arrival. Upon investigation, it was clear that there was a rodent infestation issue with one or more dead mice behind the kitchen counter / fridge. The smell worsened and, depite having all of the windows open, kept me awake for most of the night as I was the one sleeping on the living room couch. It is difficult to describe how disgusting the smell was; we all stayed out of the living room / kitchen as much as possible and had to wear COVID style masks. On our last day, I began to notice an increasing number of small flies in the kitchen area, presumably coming from however many dead mice are "trapped" behind the kitchen counter. While it pains us to leave such a negative review (we are polite Canadians, after all, lol), this represents a clear health & safety violation that must be made public. We felt a duty of care to notify any future renters. We sincerely hope that the owners resolve this situation. And also please get blackout curtains!

The apartment smells like the toilet has not been cleaned in days There is no van to support the hot weather and regulate the weather

Owner advised me there was a cleaning fee only hours before check-in that was no disclosed before. Mould in the bathroom, no door handles on most doors, hard to lock doors when leaving, photos are outdated, tiles missing and tiles cracked throughout, owner messages you alot almost to the point of harassment, beds are very uncomfortable, dust and dirt and splatter marks everywhere (very obviously it is not cleaned thoroughly if at all between stays).street noise is very loud too. Just avoid this place. I don't have anything nice to say about it

This is not a hotel. The price for the location was great! Introduced us to some new and interesting parts of London such as Brick Lane. The property needs some basic maintenance though. I had to fix the bed on arrival as the leg was broken so the bed dipped in the middle. The curtains are too short and hung off a rail for nets. The basin is loose in the bathroom (if someone leans on it, it will come off the wall soon). The bathroom door needs changing as it's glazed and people can see you whilst on the toilet. Decoration is needed throughout. We stayed on the top floor, it was a very hot weekend and the room was extremely hot, however fans were provided. The locks on the doors are loose and spin when you turn the key. If the owners spent a little on updating the decor and furniture it would make a big difference. I would however stay again, as for a family of 6 it was a great price and we just like somewhere to sleep and spend most of our time out.

Overall it was disappointing because we wasn’t aware of how many stairs they have on this apartment and it was really tough for us, all ladies to drag our big luggages all the way up to the top floor which was like 5 floors up . Description for this apartment “should be very clear”and not everyone likes stairs.

Apartment was fine for large family, plenty of sheets and bedding. Decoration was poor whole appartment needs decorating and repairing, lots of bulbs out, wardrobe doors falling off. Communication was good & apartment felt clean. Great location for liverpool street, tower of london & bridge. Had previous issues when booking through ********** with other apartments when they cancelled but this one we had no issues.

Property advertises a outdoor terrace on the website, which clearly has been out of order for a very long time, at no point before we arrived were we advised this terrace wasn’t accessible, the main reason we booked this property was due to the terrace, also, rugs and cushions damp with a couple of slices of lime randomly on the floor, very disappointing.

As a family of 6 we struggle to find accommodation to fit us in at a reasonable cost, this was a wonderful find! So close to London, only a few minutes from Aldgate East and on the doorstep of Spitalfields it's a great place to explore the sights from. Before we arrived I got a message from the owner with really helpful and thorough info about check-in anx for during our stay. The apartment was top floor so we expected a lot of steps but once there the view was fabulous and the apartment was spacious. There's all the things you need to cook and clean, a fridge and a washing machine too. The beds were clean and comfy, even the sofa-beds. The roof terrace is not accessible and there were a few signs of wear and tear such as a missing blind and some lights were out but overall it was a very positive stay and a very conscientious owner. We would definitely stay again.
