A mere two minutes from Earl's Court Station, this apartment is extremely well-connected. You couldn't ask for a better base for sightseeing. Kensington Palace, Hyde Park, and the Natural History Museum are all within walking distance. The pad itself is stylish and practical. Though compact, the kitchen is suitable for quick bites – plus, an array of restaurants nearby make it easy to dine out. One guest will sleep on a sofa bed in the living area, but the split-level layout allows for some separation. There's also a shared laundry room in the building.

Home truths:
*At full capacity, one guest will sleep on a sofa bed in the living area.
*This split-level apartment is on the second and third floors of a building without a lift. You'll be expected to climb stairs here, both within the building and within the apartment.
*You won't find an oven here – though there is a hob. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals as it's quite compact.
*You'll find a laundry room in the building that's shared with other residents.
*Noise is likely here, given the central location.
