The kitchen was extremely well‑equipped, including utensils for babies.
The room was spacious and perfect for a longer stay (about 10 days) with my wife and our baby.

The heating system was noisy, and the wardrobes in the bedroom felt outdated.

Pros:

The apartment is new, beautifully decorated. The beds are ones of the most comfortable I've ever slept in. The kitchen is fully equipped, every detail was carefully thought through- e.g. we had a dishwasher AND the tablets, the washing machine AND washing powder, the tea kettler AND tea, sugar, milk.. The coffee machine AND coffee pods for it. Unbelievable comfortable stay, great value for money. Also, spotless clean, with maids changing towels every day.
The location is superb- a walking distance from the Tower Bridge, also close to all things worth sightseeing. Even though in Central London, the micro location is quiet, so you can have a nice sleep when you return from all day walking :)
We would definitely stay again there.
