Disliked: Cleanliness
Disgusting, terrible communication
No entry code for the gate was issued prior to our arrival. We finally got help from the hotel around the corner (they are not happy with your company). The couch is stained in multiple areas and is just dirty throughout. Bed pillows yellowed with age. Pillow cases the same. Multiple areas of disrepair of the walls and floors. Mold present along the lower floor and bathroom. There are other concerns, but the worst was noting on our last morning, this morning, that 2 of our family woke with itchy bumpy rashes. We found bed bugs on the 3rd floor bedroom and along the inside of the couch. I am too disgusted to continue at this time and we are looking at what the other proper avenues are in which to lodge formal complaints with photo evidence.

Perfect private location
A groups of 10 friends going on a cruise stayed for a few days prior to heading to cruise. This location was perfect. Finding one location to host us all was not easy but this home for the need perfectly. Our country souls felt very safe, great local food across the street and within walking distance. The hosts were great at communication and answering my questions.

This Could Be a Great Place to Stay
The Norfolk Townhouse is a property in a great location. It is within two blocks of the Paddington train and underground station. An easy walk to Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens and Harrods. Decent neighborhood, plenty of places to eat, a hop-on, hop-off bus stop half a block away. The house is extremely under cared for. There are scuff marks every where, water damaged areas that smell of mold, furniture is broken and dirty. Three of the five showers are unusable because you cannot control the water temperature. There is not lack of hot water in them, but you will be scalded it is so hot. The kitchen is very understocked. Appliances are usable but you have to guess how to work them because the labels have all been worn off the controls. The refrigerator does not make things very cold, yet there is ice continuously developing on the back wall despite repeated removal. Bath towels were provided but we had to play hide and seek to find them all around the house, they were not readily available in the bathrooms. With a little effort this could be a great rental. We were only there for 4 nights so we made the best of it. We knew there was no way they could move 8 of us and our short visit would have been wasted waiting for them to come and fix things. There have been similar complaints, just seems like no one wants to make this place better.

Great location, but..
The location is superb. But it was rundown, water stains on ceiling, doors that won’t close in bedrooms. And, oh by the way. 1 week before we were to arrive they tell us they are selling the home and will come in at a last minute to show the property , will send someone in to “clean up”. But they refused to say if there was insurance for the possibility of theft. They just wanted us to lock our bags every day. Not very convenient for a large family. Although the location was fantastic I wouldn’t stay again

Poor property management
Pros: property is in a good location near Paddington, is in reasonably good condition (except for scuffed walls) and met general expectations for our stay. Cons: poor communication from property management. Address and contact information not provided (it’s located in Norfolk Mews, not Norfolk Square); took over an hour to reach someone who could direct us to the right place. Arrived back on our second day to find the front door wide open with a stranger in the living room, rummaging through closets. Apparently StayBeyond (the property management company) uses it as a linen storage and needed to transfer some sheets to another property. We should have been notified in advance of the “visit” - poor communication within the company and to guests. Very VERY awkward. Key points: 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, reasonably good for families and small groups. Feels like a managed property- well-furnished but soulless. Verify information prior to visit and make sure they provide contact person and number. Expect intrusions without notice.

Great place, tricky to find
Stayed here for a work trip - lovely and spacious, clean and comfortable. Great to have so many bathrooms and communal spaces. But it was really difficult to find with only half an address provided. This needs to be provided with clear directions upon booking.

Suited our needs...
Due to our arrival time and a strict 3pm checkin I actually booked the day before to accommodate our early arrival to be able to drop our bags off and tour about. We arrived to find the house NOT ready with soiled sheets and towels strewn about in the bedrooms and trash on the floor. Upon entering the kitchen we were met with a fowl smell only to discover rotting food in the refrigerator. I made contact with Rusty and he explained "he thought I was arriving on Saturday and not Sunday" I said I paid for the previous day to facilitate our luggage. He insisted the house was clean until I toured him through the property and showed him the mess the previous patrons left. I would like to request a refund of one day stay due to the obvious fact the property was not ready nor habitable due to the mess and rotting food. The rest of the week was seamless! Comfortable house.

Great size and location
This property was a perfect size for our group and it was a great location. It is only a few minutes from the Paddington station so very easy to get anywhere. The only downside is that the place is not well maintained with the walls all scuffed. The place wasn't perfectly clean and not well stocked with items like coffee pods. We did not spend a lot of time in the property so these items were not a big issue. The size and location made it worthwhile. It is great for a group to be able to visit instead of being in separate hotel rooms.

Great spot for a family trip!
Eventhough the managers faced an unexpected boiler issue at the apartment, they notified us before our flight to London, put us up at another flat for the first day/night while they fixed the boiler and moved us here the next day. Smooth sailing after that! We were traveling with a total of 8 people and there were plenty of bathrooms for all! Location is great and would consider staying here again.
