Week-long stay with my family, 1st time in London
The location was excellent. First of all, Chelsea is simply beautiful to walk around and behold. The apartment is a mere moment's walk to King's Road, which abounded with both bus lines (so it was a cinch to get anywhere in the city) and cafes and groceries (and other retail we didn't care about). In the opposite direction, it's a mere moment's walk to the Thames, a lovely walk along the Thames, and a 10-15-minute walk over Albert Bridge (beautiful!) to Battersea Park (also beautiful! and with a playground that delighted our 10 y.o.).
My only complaints (minor):
The apartment was a little more worn than the photos led me to believe. More "quaint" than the "glamour" in the photos. The master BR bed wasn't great, but totally serviceable, comfort-wise.
Otherwise:
The kitchen was very serviceable. We made a couple meals there pretty easily. The living room was comfortable (and the sofa cushions made an amazingly comfortable impromptu bed on the floor).
And we entertained ourselves endlessly with all the bits and pieces that were so different from what we have in small-city America. It was so fun to get a truly London experience in the apartment.
It held our family of 4 (10 yo and 14 yo girls, us 2 parents) very well.
