This flat is located in an amazing neighborhood and is central to most London sites and has access to three tube stations nearby. We had a great time here. It would have been helpful if there were extra towels and toilet paper but there is a nearby Primark where you can buy your own.
5.0
Excellent location. Close to tube stops and not that far from Oxford Street. Perfect for two women friends in their 70s. Suggested to owner that a binder on site with explicit instructions on how things work - oven, tv, etc. - would be helpful. All in all - a good experience.

Liz was an excellent host, she responded quickly to questions and gave us a much needed early check in after a long flight.
The property was exactly as described. Not huge, but good for central London and big enough for our family of 5.
Location is excellent- close to a number of tube lines and buses plus a local supermarket and I highly recommend lunch at Honey & Spice down the road.

If you are looking to stay in a real neighborhood of London (as opposed to a tourist trap), look no further than Fitzrovia. Excellent restaurants within a five minute walk, close to several tube stations, and a quick walk to Regent’s Park, truly one of the most beautiful parks in London. The neighborhood is also fairly quiet by London standards, but remember, London is a huge and bustling city. It was quite warm in the flat but we hit the hottest week London had seen in months so that was not a surprise (nor was the lack of air conditioning, which is not a common feature in London homes). Liz was east to work with and provided an extremely helpful welcome packet. If you’re looking to lounge around home, look elsewhere. But if you’re looking for an excellent launching pad for daily city adventures, combined with comfortable beds to rest at night, this is a great option.
5.0
The flat was very clean and in a very quiet neighbourhood. It is a short walk to the tube station or a 20 min walk to the central tourist / shopping / theatre area. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were very comfortable. Very much enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to recommend the flat to others. Plenty of options for groceries and a short walk to the excellent Waitrose Supermarket in Marylebone. The host was also very responsive to all of our questions and easily accessible. Great base from which to see London. Highly recommend.

Conveniently located in the West End. Close to theaters, shopping, restaurants, all the major London attractions. If you stay, be sure to make a left out of the building and discover all that the neighborhood in Fitzrovia has to offer.

We stayed 3 nights in July 2023. The apartment is small but was a good size for me and my 2 adult daughters.
It was our first time in London and the location was perfect for exploring the city. The apartment is located off the main busy streets so it’s quiet at night but still convenient for the many restaurants, cafes and pubs nearby. Public transport is nearby and it was also very easy to get a cab near the apartment.
Liz, the manager, was super helpful before and during our stay and communicated quickly. She also provided an incredibly helpful, detailed guide for the apartment, neighborhood amenities and public transit.
Apartment is super clean, comfortable and had everything needed. Kitchen and bathroom are small but updated. Apartment includes a washer/dryer combo which we found very useful.
It was an overall great choice for our first visit to London. Highly recommend.

The apartment is beautiful, even better than the pictures. The sofa bed was as comfortable as a regular bed.

This apartment was in a great location. Seemed safe and secure. Very close to the tube. There is construction going on in the building next door which was quite loud in the early mornings.
3.0
The location is really great in that there were so many restaurants, it's close to the tube and if you were wanting to walk/public transport to any major attraction, it was reasonably accessible. And it's fair to say that everything in London is quite expensive, so for the space and location, it was appropriately priced. However, be prepared to endure some major drawbacks. We found the flat to be not as clean and to my personal standard. I tend to look in corners like the base of faucets and walls, but it's not bad if you don't look closely. There is a large building being erected directly across the windows of the flat where active construction was happening all day, and in the evening and early morning hours there are loud voiced people coming out of the bar. This might just be normal for city living in London, we just happened to be staying during a time when it was very hot and had to leave the windows open so there was no way to dampen the noise. While noise and cleanliness standards can be variable, I was most perturbed by the 1 toilet paper roll offering per stay.

This was our first time staying in the Fitzrovia district of Central London. Our contact, Liz, was great. She provided us with great information about about the neighbourhood, how to get to the rental and London in general. All of our communication with Liz was dealt with in a professional, courteous and timely manner.
Our favourite part of London, the West End, is nearby - a quick bus ride or walk.
The checkin process went smoothly and instructions on how to use the facilities (eg. washer/dryer, garbage disposal, dishwasher, windows) were detailed and clear.
The rooms were a good size and private. The living room/dining area had a sofa bed and had a door for privacy which was good for our party of five. The beds were comfortable.
London is getting much hotter in the summer than in past summer trips so the rental was quite warm so the windows and blinds need to be drawn during the day.
This rental property is very nice, the building is quiet and great for a group of 4 or more.
Thank you Liz for your hospitality!

Pros: This was perfect for 4 adults. Beds were comfortable. Great location. Clean. Cons: No A/C therefore had to leave windows open at night and it was loud due to a few bars down the road. Very few amenities. You basically have to supply everything. All and all not a bad place for the price. Liz was very helpful and answered all my questions. Would rent again.

Our 4 might stay at Liz’s apartment was very enjoyable. We were 4 adults and found the space adequate. It is exactly as described in her pictures and listing. Liz was super responsive, friendly and helpful. We loved the neighborhood. There was easy access to the Northern tube line, several grocery stores, great pubs and more. We would definitely stay here next time we visit London!

The write up in VRBO is misleading as this is a college dorm style flat in a college building that is rudimentary in its amenities and comfort.
Restaurants in the area are however good and close to Tube and buses.

We had a wonderful time staying at Fitzrovia. Liz was very accommodating with check which was so nice for a travel weary family to be able to check in early and just rest for a few hours. The apartment is well situated with easy access to the tube, abundant local restaurants, museums, etc. Everything felt close, but at the same time the neighborhood was not touristy or crowded.

What a true gem. The location is amazing. A lovely neighborhood. So many food and shopping options, something for everyone in my family. Liz is incredibly responsive and kind. The information packet that comes with rental is so detailed and very helpful. Key pick up was a breeze. I had 2 teens and an 8 year old and the apartment suited us very well. I would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend.

The property is accurately described in the listing. And very nice. There was plenty of room for me and my wife and two adult children. what really makes this place special, in particular for a first time visitor to London like myself, was the communication from the property manager. the information they sent over was invaluable for experiencing London.

Fitzrovia Flat
Liz was very helpful and quick to respond. The flat is located near several tube stops, making it easy to get around London. You can walk to Piccadilly Circus, Covent Gardens, Buckingham Palace, the British Museum to name a few. The building is quiet and clean, and the neighborhood very safe. You’ll find lots of good restaurants in the neighborhood, as well as several small grocery conveniences. Our family of 5, including two teenagers and 10 year old, found it comfortable with enough space for all of us. We would absolutely stay here again.

Fitzrovia
Fitzrovia is a lovely area to stay because it is close to museums, good restaurants and bakeries. It is our third time in the apt house . We intend to return to the same location soon.

This was a very nice apartment in a great location. Easy assess to the several tube stations, plenty of places to eat, and London sites were within a quick tube ride. The apartment was attractive, very clean and had all the conveniences needed to make our stay pleasant. There is a pub on the corner that's a little noisy at night but if you don't mind that a great place to stay.
