The carpet on the stairs up from the street was filthy and very off putting. Room itself was fine. We paid £250 for a night and it definitely wasn’t worth that.

Spacious. With a kitchenette.
Our bath soap in the shower was completely empty and I brought it to their attention right after we checked in and was told it would be filled the next day. Nothing. Also the NOISE from the streets with people walking, partying etc went on until 5:00 AM on our second night. Since there is no air conditioning we needed to keep our windows open.

The Location was perfect for getting around London. The staff were very helpful and polite. Room was clean and well equipped. Overall very good
Noise level was a bit loud as the rooms were on top of a pit. But this is to be expected.

The host was super easy to get in touch with. Accommodations had all we needed, and it was in an excellent location - easy to get to the Angel or King's Cross Station. We stayed during a heat wave. Large fan was provided. Keeping curtains closed all day (we were gone anyway) helped immensely. Would definitely stay here again!

The Alma Rooms was an absolute highlight of our trip! The apartment is spacious, super clean and incredibly comfortable, with large windows that flood the space with natural light and fresh air. Despite being on a busy street, the quality of the windows made it completely silent at night.
The location is beautiful. Islington is a wonderful neighbourhood to explore, and we were lucky enough to catch the Sunday farmers market on Chapel Market, just around the corner. A perfect local experience!
The host was genuinely warm, welcoming and thoughtful. The manual left in the room (with local recommendations, nearby attractions, tips and appliance instructions) was such a lovely touch as well!
We will absolutely be back on our next visit to London. 10/10, couldn't recommend more highly.

Spacious and clean
Difficult to find. You have to go into the bar and ask for the key while patrons spill beer on you and step on your shoes. It seems they could install a lockbox to avoid this. I had no idea from the listing that I needed to drag my luggage into a crowded bar.

Great location! The staff was beyond friendly and helpful. The drinks in the pub were fantastic. I will stay here again on my next trip!
No A/C but honestly, it wasn't needed. They provided multiple fans, along with having windows open, my stay was more than comfortable!

The location was perfect for a concert we were going to at the O2 academy ( 2 mins walk) and near lots of lovely restaurants to choose from for dinner. The room was spacious, very clean and comfortable. A very comfortable stay.

Wonderful
As our flight was delayed 16 hours, they were most helpful at accommodating our unusual check-in time. The room was clean and easy to access. The appliances worked perfect. Being located close to food (groceries and restaurants) and public transportation made our stay in London convenient.
Perhaps I should have done a bit more research as to the unhoused situation. The poor individual fighting with drug-induced demons in the street below was a tad disruptive to our sleep. However, it is an urban area and completely beyond the apartment owner's control. We still felt safe and utilized white noise the following nights.

Poor
Clean, but not luxurious or interesting in any way.
Twin beds for our couple night away, on wooden legs with a slidey floor. Inevitably the canyon between the two kept opening. £60 too expensive. Far better choices available at this price range.

Good
Location, layout, cleanliness and shower is good.
There were three flights of narrow steps to room, hard with bags. Black out blinds on the windows, but none on the skylight, so woken by sunlight as soon as sun was up. TV needed an update each of the three times, I turned it on - which I kindly did the first two times.
Thank you for your information!
