The Avanti Apartments are a group of accommodations that are located near each other; Each one is different. I stayed in unit B in property 16. I found out which unit I would be about two hours before check in time.
There is a lot to like… luxury touches like monogrammed towels, plush robes, and high-quality soaps. The fit and finish on the apartment were great, especially the kitchen and bathroom. The bed was comfortable… but there were a few things that will lead me to look elsewhere the next time I make my way to London. The pile of mail at the door as soon as you enter the building made it difficult to get a suitcase in the street-level door and up the narrow staircase. The beautiful bathroom had a strong smell of sulfur from the shower drain - closing the door made the apt smell better, but left you with a difficult room for a shower, and the bedroom is located on the street side of the building instead of the quieter back part of the apartment. This small street in front of the building was noisy late at night and early in the morning. The closed windows block much of the noise, but leave the room warm and stuffy. Unfortunately, I could (loudly) hear my relatively quiet upstairs neighbors even as they talked at normal levels and walked around above me.
The listing is certainly priced to take these short comings into account - next time I’ll remind myself that London is expensive and pay a bit more for different accommodations.
