Big bright flat for 4-6 people with good links to around the city

Our ground floor flat has two bedrooms with double beds, and a living room with a sofa-bed, and two bathrooms (one with bath tub and one with a shower). It has high ceilings, good size rooms, is very quiet and has a back yard to relax in. My place is good for families (with kids) and groups of friends.

It's situated in ethnically diverse Islington, convenient with a number of shops and supermarkets within 5 mins (the closest is Tesco metro around the corner, open 7am - 11pm daily). Finsbury Park and Arsenal stadium within a 10-15 min walk from the flat.

We're in zone 2, a 10 min walk/5 min bus journey from Finsbury Park station (Piccadilly and Victoria lines), which is 2 stops from Kings Cross station (on Victoria line).

Parking outside flat is free from Saturday after 1.30pm until Monday 8am. Outside of these hours, you will need to park across the road in a resident parking bays, using a visitor parking voucher, which costs £14.25 for all day. Please request these in advance from us.

Excellent choice
Looked at bit sketchy when I first arrived. Part of the address number is obstructed by a pipe so from the street my driver had a difficult time locating it. I didn't realize the flat was behind an abandoned store front. BUT, the flat was clean, and comfortable and I felt totally secure there. I recommend utilizing the Holloway Rd underground station. Great place to stay. Try Yardsale pizza! Near Finsbury Park Station. And Waitrose grocery near Holloway Rd station.

Great location close to central london
The apartment was the perfect amount of space for our family to use as a base to explore central London. Host was always quick to respond to my emails, and our check in and out process was very easy. Thanks

Family holiday
We stayed here for a week with 13/12/10 year old kids. It was a solid 10 minute walk to the tube, which was great. Lots of shops around for convenience. Having two bathrooms and a patio/outdoor area is a luxury that we enjoyed. Communication was excellent. Thanks for sharing your home.

Good location, difficult owner
Our bad experience might be a one-off, but we feel compelled to report. The unsafe entry and Gen’s attitude were our main problems. As Gen’s mother let us in, a section of bricks broke away from the step up to the flat and my husband fell, scraping his leg so badly it bled. Gen and her family variously blamed my husband for hitting the step with his suitcase and for stepping on it while carrying two suitcases. Neither were the case. Gen’s sister said they would fix it but they didn’t, leaving our family with a dangerous broken step. We documented the step at the beginning and end of our stay, as well as my husband’s injury. We told VRBO but asked them not to alert Gen while we were there because her family seemed so unhappy with us and we felt uncomfortable. We received our deposit despite being blamed, but my husband is left with a 2x2 scar. Gen’s communication was slow. We assumed we could check in at 4pm, the advertised time. Two days before we arrived, she messaged, “the earliest for an evening check in will be 7.45pm.” We explained we had tix to an event that night and had a lot of luggage. The day before we arrived, Gen agreed to have her parents let us in earlier, but that 7:45 caused us worry. Gen’s sister came round to go over the rules and facilities that Mon. We asked to check out late because we had an evening flight that Sat. She said that it should be ok, so I messaged Gen on Tues to confirm. We hadn’t heard by Thurs, so my husband texted to make sure she’d seen my msg. She texted a late checkout wasn’t possible. My husband texted “Your sister said it would be ok for 4:30pm checkout on Mon and my wife messaged you through VRBO on Tues to confirm. By leaving it until 11pm on Thurs night to respond to us leaves us no time to make alternate arrangements.” She accused us of “insisting” on a late checkout, but all msgs show clearly that we were only trying to get confirmation after two days’ silence. Gen’s msgs through the site were friendlier (at the last minute she offered us an extra hour in the flat) but by that time we already spent £70 to book a left luggage spot so that didn’t help. It’s a pleasant space, conveniently located with shops nearby. We left an item in London and when I contacted Gen she helpfully responded that it wasn’t there. If Gen had shown a little concern for my husband’s injury, tried to fix the step or communicated promptly and politely, we could have written a positive review. Future guests—mind that step.

Very comfortable and pleasant
Had a great 4 day 5 nights stay at Ms. Gen house. Located so close to many shops one might think it will be noisy. But due to house design or quality construction not sure absolutely quiet inside for peaceful sleep or family time. Finsbury park metro short walking distance. Shops open till 11 pm so very convenient. Rooms were spacious with luggages and well stocked kitchen and other essentials. All equipment in working order ans overall five star stay at an affordable price. Will come back again for a stay again. Thank you Gen.

Great for family
Good sized flat for family to sleep 5. Large rooms with light. Apartment was clean as well as sheets, towels, etc. 10 minute walk to Finsbury Park underground with fast Victoria line permitting one to be at centre sights in 20-25 minutes (including walk to tube). Very responsive owner made whole process easy. Great family value for London.
