The apartment is located in a relatively quiet residential area, but it is not very convenient, and it takes about 5-10 minutes to walk to the surrounding facilities.The apartment's access control system and management are good, and both the maintenance staff and receptionists have a very friendly and helpful attitude.However, there is an issue where they often check the apartments by swiping cards without prior notice, which can be somewhat disruptive to daily life.

The overall experience of staying in this apartment is fantastic! The rooms are clean and tidy, with new and complete facilities, and the surrounding living environment and transportation are very convenient. The staff are warm and hospitable, making the stay very comfortable. The only minor drawback is that the sound insulation is average, and occasionally sounds can be heard from the hallway or next door. However, this does not detract from the positives, and all other aspects are very satisfactory, offering great value for money. Overall, I highly recommend it!

It wasn’t until I moved into Chapter Portobello that I realized the romance of Notting Hill can truly seep into everyday life. In the morning, I head to Portobello Market to buy a bouquet of fresh flowers and a freshly baked croissant; in the evening, I watch the West London sunset through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The apartment is full of thoughtful design, preserving the refined elegance of British style while offering stylish modern conveniences. What I love most is the private residents’ garden downstairs and the rooftop terrace—it’s so rare to have such a peaceful corner in bustling London. Living here isn’t just about renting a room; it feels more like having a warm, lived-in “home” full of comfort and character. Absolutely great value for money, and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience authentic British living in West London! ✨

Hygiene: Clean The room looks fairly new. There is a small audio-visual area and a study place downstairs. The apartment staff have a good service attitude, but there are always people coming to clean, which compromises privacy. The alarms ring often and are very loud. It is a bit far to walk to the subway, about ten minutes.

There is a bus for convenient commuting to school, and there is a supermarket nearby, making life very convenient. You need to swipe your card three times (at the main entrance/elevator: personal) to enter the house, which is very safe. The front desk is friendly and it is very convenient to collect packages.

Arriving at the apartment around nine o'clock on Sunday night, I checked in smoothly. The room is quite spacious and very clean. I'm staying on the fourth floor, and my room window faces outward with a great view, allowing me to see far without any obstructions. The transportation to University College London is quite convenient. However, the drainage under the sink in the apartment wasn't very smooth. I reported the issue for repairs, and they fixed it the same day, which is quite efficient.
