Room to let, Marylebone/Baker Street

[Lisa lisa]

Don't know whether to post this here or on the other thread but I do think it's the same place because of the patio and walk in shower description so this should be linked to the other post.

My experience is from two weeks in Sept. They spent all their time in the bedroom, I didn't smell weed, they do smoke though, a lot. I had the room downstairs and their room was upstairs so it never bothered me.

PROS

Clean room and house
Plenty of towels and lean bedding
Paid no deposit and left on good terms
Quiet and discreet whenever I had a client

CONS

Food kept getting eaten then replaced - (I told them it wasn't ok and they stopped)
When she starts screaming at him at 1 in the morning then suddenly stops
Too friendly - I think she's lonely and wants female friends so eveytime I was out of my room she would say hi.
He gives off a weird vibe, fake friendly sort of personality
Didn't feel secure leaving valuables or my bag laying about - Not saying they did but felt like they would go in my room
Didn't get bedroom keys


All in all for what I payed the short term rental for me is worth it, in and out.
I think its if you are there long term and so they think you are friends that things turn nasty. If they ever asked me for extra money i would have left sharpish.

Mimi and Missi how long where you there for?

Considering you both had such horrible experiences I would have left pronto...

I was there for two weeks, see some of what you are saying but from stories I heard from another girl who stayed there last year for a long time Mimis experience rings true, every word of it sounds like her from the stories my friend told me.

Every word apart from bookings bit, from my experience and hers he has never and she said she was never asked in a way by him to involvement in the bookings. She was there for way over 4 months so I am finding it hard to believe that plus from my own experience as well... just saying...

Yes, they advertised originally with the patio and shower and all is correct except the patio is closed due to cold weather and rain...they smoke in the kitchen and opened the windows so the room was cold..

When I had a booking coming the black man came out of the room and scared my client off. He then lied to his girlfriend, maybe to provoke her and she got in her rage. The client told me he was not comfortable to stay when there is young, black man around ..

Missy, your client being racist isn't relevant to the thread. Please stay on topic or I'm locking it and people can PM me if they want to post.

?? I think you should pm me if you want to know more like Amy said I've dragged it on myself tellingall the stories.
I don't understand a single sentence of what you tried to write here. Pm me in English please. You're referring to her?? I dont know who her is. You believe all what I wrote apart from bookings bit?? No one cares what you believe. And I was there for over four months.

[Mimi_british_95]

And don't post when you said yourself you're not sure if it's the same place. And there is no walk in shower.

Wow. 

I find your tone so aggressive. Why would you say no one cares what I believe, a comment like that negates your whole post as both of us speak from experience. The whole point is to give HONEST reviews without personal 'vendettas.'... I don't care to pm you, I commented for the benefit of others who want an unbiased and factual review. If you feel you warrant a pm maybe you should have pm'd me.

This whole thing makes me uncomfortable, I don't want to know more I just want others to know my experience and from what you wrote I feel the majority of it was true bar the last bit.

I stick by my original review.

In regards to the walk in shower thats what the call the upstairs bathroom.

Good, that's all sorted out then.

Unless anyone has anything else relevant to add which might help other members, that's enough. Anybody reading can draw their own conclusions pretty well from the information already provided and there's no need to squabble amongst ourselves .


EDIT: Off topic posts removed and thread locked. If anybody has useful information to add or would like to contribute their experience of the place, just drop me a PM and I'll reopen it .

[Mimi_british_95]

Amy wants factual things not beliefs and I've already written a load of irrelevant stuff from when I was there. So no. Thanks to my posts and thanks to yours. That's it. Don't question me and I don't question you. And of course not everyone who stays there is going to have the same experience. Write what u need to write and bye bye.

[Mimi_british_95]

And sorry Amy I just have to add that neither Monika OR him smoke cigarettes. only weed.
