Great concept and good location, although on a busy street and no aircondition
Pros:

Great concept, easy check in/out, fast communication.

Cons:

Very noisy street and no aircon made it quite uncomfortable during the nights.

Pros:

Excellent location. Room was very comfortable. Loved the little extras provided like the tote bag and reusable water bottles. The fridge is huge. So many options nearby for food. Fast food, sit down and grocery stores. Keep in mind though that the Tower of London location has no elevator. So you will have to carry your luggage up several flights of stairs. Easy access to the Monument and Tower Hill tube stations. We loved the place. Highly recommended

Cons:

Thank you for contributing to making our stay so enjoyable
Pros:

Flat was superb and fully equipped. Would love to live here! We purposely selected the location as we concentrated our holiday in the area: City, Tower of London, South Bank, etc.
We were surrounded by the Walkie Talkie and medieval turrets.
We appreciated the mobile air conditioners as we visited during the heatwave. Also appreciated the hand-written welcoming note. Refreshing after all the A.I. 😜

Cons:

The only mar was breakfast. When one asks for breakfast one presumes that it is served on the premises. Maybe I did not read carefully enough to see that there were instead 2 cafés available. The nearest opened at 8 am and the other was quite far away and overpriced. I would definitely come and stay again in this particular flat but this time make my own breakfast in the gorgeous kitchen.

Pros:

Overall, we had a good stay at Bob W Tower of London. The biggest advantage is definitely the location – it’s excellent for exploring London, with many major attractions within walking distance and great public transport connections.

The apartment was modern, clean, and comfortable. However, the lack of air conditioning was a significant downside during our stay, as we visited during an extreme heatwave. Under normal weather conditions, this probably wouldn’t have been an issue, but during very hot days it made the apartment quite uncomfortable.

The breakfast was good, although it was served in a restaurant a few hundred meters away rather than in the building itself, which was a bit inconvenient.

Overall, it was a pleasant stay. While it wasn’t exceptional, the fantastic location makes it a good choice for anyone looking for a convenient base to explore London.

The single worst guest experience i have had in 20 years.
Pros:

Shocked by the other positive reviews tbh, i feel like i fell for it. Considering i work with companies professionally in customer experience and the associated journeys this was hysterically bad i am sorry to say. The single worst guest experience i have had in 20 years.

This has to be one the worst stays I've ever had anywhere. I arrived 10 mins before check in and they sent someone up to clean the room in 5 mins... the room was filthy, no towels provided, no front desk. No correspondence. The windows were broken and did not open, the property had nails coming out the floor which ripped my sock and injured my foot and ruined my whole weekend. Didn't even get an apology after i provided photos and videos of all the issues mentioned above.

But they did offer me 10% compensation after two weeks of trying to chase them. I could not speak to a single human being before, during or after my stay. No medical assistance if anything happens any properties it is also worth mentioning for those who are concerned.

Im sure Bob W will provide a corporately adept rebuttal and hollow apology under my review. However that is just protocol for any negative reviews.
