Hertford Court -14 Hertford St The apartment is exceptionally well located near Shepherds Market and a 5 minute walk to Green Park or Hyde Park Corner tube stations. Hertford St is a bit of a cut through and quite noisy, necessitating closing the windows on hot nights or using ear plugs. No aircon, so gets quite warm on hot days (it was near 30 ℃ in London). Consierge was on hand to meet. The apartment suited our needs, was clean and serviced daily. The beds were comfortable and had good linen, however, the overall appearance was a little tatty and could do with a complete facelift. Equally, the furniture was quite tired. The Wifi was intermittant and reception varied from room to room. We would stay in the same area again but possibly not that particular apartment block unless it had been renovated.

Towels were dirty -

OK, not amazing The apartment was enormous and the staff very friendly. However, the bedroom windows have no curtains, only office type blinds - so the sun wakes you up at 6am in the summer. The windows are also single glazed so if the sun doesn't wake you up, the bin lorries at 6.30am will! Kitchen crockery was a bit old fashioned and could easily have been much better for not a lot of money.

Poor communication Poor communication, misleading information - I selected my apartment from the LSA website and inquired on details. Email communication was painful - lacking details and repeatedly unanswered specific questions, I finally called from California. Not much better. I finally just stopped asking questions. LSA webpage for the apartment building is grossly misleading - highlighting only the penthouse unit and its features, not the majority of the apartments. LSA never provided any additional information on my specific unit so I assumed the detailed list and photos on their site was applicable to all apartments. So many items were not actually in my apartment such as dishwasher, washer/dryer, hairdryer. The general living space wasn't as displayed in the photos. The listed free wifi never worked, for 12 days, and in fact, no internet is available in the unit - free, paid, wired or otherwise. Very frustrating and difficult to work around. LSA was unsympathetic. I will not work with them again.

Booking Booking - The booking staff was not cooperative and even though we had requested an early checking and the apartment was available for early check-in (confirmed by maintenance staff) they didn't even inform the maintenance staff. Just shows lack of empathy to the customer. Apartment - Very good location. The apartment was spacious. No lifts and hence not good if you have lots of luggage or kids. The apartment seems very old and wasn't well lighted with very basic furnishings. The kitchen appliances were very dated and the floor creaked and was coming off from corners.
