Good value for this area
Pros:

Great location for Hampton Court and Teddington with parking. Modern fittings and beds comfortable. Dishwasher and full oven in the kitchen. Showers work well. The cafe across the road is excellent. It was very hot in the apartment and our the host did provide extra fans for each room.

Cons:

Could have done with a couple more comfy chairs. A two seater sofa bed and one chair wasn’t enough for 4 of us. If you’re planning to cook the Kitchen could do with a few more utensils like a cheese grater and peeler. Only the frying pan and one small pan worked on the induction hob. No ovenware provided.

The property is contemporary, clean, good parking and in an excellent location.
Pros:

The location of the property was excellent for us - we wanted to walk some Thames Path, shop at Kingston and also go up to Tate Britain for an exhibition. The property is contemporary, spacious, has good storage in the kitchen and bedroom, free parking outside the property, a lovely cafe opposite the property and the sound proofing was excellent (couldn't hear the traffic outside).

Cons:

It took a long time to warm up the property. Eventually, the lounge was cosy, but only if the bedroom door was shut. The bedroom and bathroom, although heated, were cold at night. The flooring is laminate, so that probably didn't help with heat retention. We were the only people staying at the property, so we think it is more a high season place to stay and the heating had not been on for a while. We had to phone the manager to get the WiFi password - there wasn't any property instructions (the manager said there should have been). We were disappointed that the TV didn't have an HDMI outlet for us to connect our laptop to, but a small thing.
