The breakfast was excellent. The location was perfect for our purpose (close to the University). We've got an apartment with a kitchen and a set of tee/coffee packs. At the reception we've got two UK/EU power adapters for free.
My daughter found the mattress hard, but this is a personal judgement. The air cleaning device located next to our entry door was a bit too loud in the night.

Great apartment. Dog allowed. The apartment is in a student building so expect a busy hallway in the morning.

The welcome by your staff. Detailed view of what we could expect. Change in room based on what we had booked. Friendly employees all over.
While breakfast was good, we could have had some variety, especially some vegetarian food as we are Indians and also vegetarian.

Location is central to all sights. Kitchen facilities. Fully equipped apartment. Great space.
Due to ongoing construction, the lift or front door to Churchill House was not working. One of the main reasons I booked at KM was to do laundry mid-week. But the laundry app did not work on our cell phones (We live in Italy but have U.S. phone numbers).

Location is good in the university area. Very small apartment but OK for 2 nights.
Room very small with outlook on blank wall - apparently part of a dorm that was being renovated, so had to walk down and around various corridors and levels to get to room. Reception desk in another building. Stove very hard to use - had to get someone to show me. No complimentary breakfast, no laundry facilities. OK for the 2 nights I was there, but I cancelled another 4 nights for later and stayed at the Marriott nearby which had breakfast buffet, larger room, free laundry - and was cheaper!

Bed was comfortable, shower was decent.
The heating and lights were left on all day on the hottest day of the year, we checked in at 8pm. The small gap in the window the room was uncomfortable all night despite switching the heating off. Downstairs needed a hoover, there was no microwave or alarm clock despite being advertised.

Very Poor
location in a quiet near the center of the city
Room was dark like a prison cell. Lack of view, lack of sitting space. Could not sit in bed because head end was under a ledge, which if you sat up too quickly you would bank your head (photo 5 from studio for 2). The kitchen facilities were inadequate; There were 2 fire alarms during our stay from other people's cooking. Despite all the rules and instructions there was no way to avoid fire alarms. There are no hoods in the kitchen. Rules: keep bathroom door closed while taking a shower because you might set off smoke alarm. Open window while cooking, except window barely opened. Lower half of window taped over so reduced light came through. Lack of storage space. Studio for 2 photos 5,6,7,9,10, and 14 reflective of our studio. Photos 1,2, and 3 do not represent what we got. Our studio was dark with no view to speak of.
