Hola, ¿Hay ascensores en el edificio?

Jul 11, 2025 03:26 PM

Hi Mohammed, yes, the flat is on floor 3 and it does have a lift. Do you mind me kindly asking where you're travelling from?

Jul 11, 2025 03:28 PM

Hola, Mark. Viajo desde Omán. Somos una familia de 2 adultos y 3 niños.

Fantastic, I look forward to hoting you, I have pre-approved the enquiry, so you can go ahead and book :-)

Jul 11, 2025 03:31 PM

Hi Mohammed Riyadh, Thank you for your booking. I'm looking forward to hosting you 😊 I've put quite a bit of effort into making the place nice for AirBnB so please look after it 🙏🏼 The earliest check in is 3pm. Checkout is 11am. Here's some information that will help you get around the flat. Most of these are straightforward, the general rule of thumb is that I would expect you to treat my flat as you would your own: take the shoes off when in the flat, don’t smoke inside the flat (but you can smoke in the roof garden), avoid playing loud music after 10pm etc... There is wardrobe space in both rooms cleared out for you. 🚪Doors Access is via a keypad and code. Very simple. You will receive details for this a few days before. Please note that my apartment door doesn't lock by itself, *so please lock when leaving* 🔑 🚘 Parking There is paid on street residents parking - I'm happy to book and cover the cost of this for you. But you will need to tell me in advance so I can register the virtual permit with the council. 🌡Heating You can control the heating in each room individually using the thermostat on the radiator. Simply turn the dial on it. 🎵 Music & Lights Please refer to the flat manual (http://corley.me/manual.pdf) ☕️ Coffee & Food There is a Nespresso coffee machine with capsules supplied. Tea, as well as mugs, can be found in the cupboards in the kitchen. Please feel free to make use of the spices and condiments. Feel free to use store cupboard items within reason. Anything in the fridge is fair game 🍸 🪣 Appliances In the kitchen, you have an oven, stove, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, toaster & blender, which are all easy to use. Happy to share cooking tips :) There's also a library of cookbooks which you're more than welcome to use! 📽 Projector Please refer to the flat manual (http://corley.me/manual.pdf) 🚮 Waste and Recycling: Trash/rubbish bin is hidden in the corner cupboard. If you want to take rubbish out the bins are on your left as you go out the door to the building. 📍The postcode of the flat is SE1 5LJ. The flat is on the 3rd floor at the end of the corridor. You will receive full address details in due course. 🧡 Finally, This is my home when I’m not travelling, so I’ve tried to make it cosy and welcoming for you too. If anything feels off or could be improved, even something small, just let me know — I’ll do my best to sort it out. And if you’re happy, a little 5★ love always means a lot!😊 p.s. If it's your first time in London, I'd highly recommend downloading an app called CityMapper for navigating public transport. It has all the options on it and it very upto date and accurate 🚎 🚉

Will you be requiring the sofa for sleeping as well as the two (double and superking) beds? Let me know in advance so I can arrange extra linen. Please note that it isn't a sofa bed. However, it's a large comfortable sofa to sleep on - I can attest to that myself😊 Thanks!

Jul 11, 2025 03:52 PM

Hola, Mark: Sí, eso sería genial.

Aug 17, 2025 08:46 PM

Hope you're looking forward to your stay in two days time! Check in is simple: 1. When you get to the building buzz flat 1️⃣3️⃣ on the intercom. The door will open automatically. 2. Flat 13 is on floor 3, right at the end. Use code 🔐 663661 🔐 to open my flat door. **When you leave, press the ◀️ 'back' button on the keypad to lock the door.** (if for some reason the digital lock doesn't work there is a *backup physical key* in the top right key safe, to the right hand side of the garage door & bins, outside the building. Code: 2820)

Aug 23, 2025 05:00 PM

Hola, Mark. Gracias por las instrucciones, una pregunta: ¿hay algún ventilador en el apartamento?

Aug 24, 2025 04:17 AM

Como sabes, es verano y el clima sigue siendo cálido.

Aug 24, 2025 04:17 AM

Hi Mohammed, Yes of course, it's still pretty hot. But not quite as hot as it has been! A little tip if you're too hot is to open the roof box at the top of the spiral stairs and then open the french windows downstairs and you usually get a pretty good through draft. The main window in the living room you need to lift up the door while pulling it, it'sa bit tricky to open, but it does open. There are also fans in each room you can use. Let me know if you need anything else prior to your stay! Next year we're hoping to have AC if you come back and stay again 😊🤞

Aug 24, 2025 05:49 AM

Would you kindly let me know what time you plan to arrive?

Aug 24, 2025 05:50 AM

Gracias, Mark, por tu rápida respuesta. Lo más probable es que lleguemos después de las 15:00.

Aug 24, 2025 05:51 AM

Just a quick FYI, the Bluetooth for the speakers is out of action, but you can easily turn the projector on and play music through the PC. ✨️

Aug 24, 2025 08:00 AM

No hay problemas, lo único que necesitamos es una conexión a Internet estable. Del 16 al 21 de agosto nos alojamos en el apartamento de alguien a través de Airbnb y fue un gran apartamento y, sin embargo, Internet no funcionaba, a pesar de que les pedimos que lo arreglaran, pero no pasó nada.

Aug 24, 2025 08:02 AM

No problem at all. The internet in my apartment is very stable and reliable - it’s high-speed fiber and works perfectly at the moment. You can be assured that you won’t have problems with the connection. If for any reason a technical issue arises, I take care of resolving it immediately.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​😊

Aug 24, 2025 01:10 PM

Eso es revivir Muchas gracias

Aug 24, 2025 01:29 PM

Here's some details to help you locate my flat: Flat 13, Sultan House, 238 Saint James Road, SE1 5LJ The entrance to my building is actually on Lynton Road, just off St James Road on the crossroads. The entrance to my flat is on floor 3. Come up the lift and go straight ahead right to the end of the corridor and the flat is on your left. (please arrive on or after your 3pm check-in time unless we've agreed otherwise).

Aug 25, 2025 09:00 AM

Hi, This is the special fiber WiFi 😊

Aug 25, 2025 12:30 PM

Aug 25, 2025 12:31 PM

Hola, Mark. ¿Hay algún estacionamiento donde pueda estacionar mi auto?

Aug 25, 2025 01:29 PM

I will need the following information to book in your visitor parking permit: Car Registration No. Car Make Car Model Colour Once you have this information I will be able to book it in and you will be able to park on the streets around the flat. Please note I can't be held responsible for you parking unsafely and getting a ticket for any offence other than not having a valid permit.

Aug 25, 2025 02:02 PM

Aug 25, 2025 02:03 PM

Thank you. Just a moment. I will process it now

Aug 25, 2025 02:04 PM

Hi Mohammed Riyadh, I have now purchased virtual visitor parking permit from the council for the duration of your stay (these are also valid for the full 24 hours on the day of checkin and checkout). You just need to make sure you park in a permit holders only bay on the street. I've put together a pdf with some instructions to help find a bay: https://corley.me/parking.pdf There is no need to display anything in the car - the permit is virtual and has been fully paid. Let me know if you have any questions 😊

Aug 25, 2025 02:07 PM

Here the tickets, You do not need to show them but you can check that all the details are ok :)

Aug 25, 2025 02:12 PM

Aug 25, 2025 02:12 PM

Muchas gracias, Mark. Una vez que estacione y llegue, te avisaré.

Aug 25, 2025 02:37 PM

Hola, Mark. Llegué y fue muy fácil

Aug 25, 2025 07:31 PM

Solo una pregunta rápida. ¿Cómo se abre Netflix? No muestra ninguna fuente en ninguna fuente HDMI

Aug 25, 2025 07:32 PM

Hi, I am.glad you arrive well 🙏

Aug 25, 2025 07:40 PM

Sorry about that, Yesterday I had an idea to make it simplier! But I did not have chance to change the manual 🙏 Inside the living table you will find 2 controls. You can use just the Roku one.

Aug 25, 2025 07:42 PM

With that you can turn the proyector on and everything will be on the screem. You just need to wait few seconds after press the botton (the projector needs some time 😊)

Aug 25, 2025 07:43 PM

This one

Aug 25, 2025 07:44 PM

Aug 25, 2025 07:44 PM

Aug 25, 2025 07:46 PM

Aug 25, 2025 07:46 PM

Exactly, that one

Aug 25, 2025 07:47 PM

Try switching to HDMI 2

Aug 25, 2025 07:47 PM

Using the projector remote

Aug 25, 2025 07:47 PM

Aug 25, 2025 07:48 PM

Aug 25, 2025 07:48 PM

Didnyou turn it on with the roku remote?

Aug 25, 2025 07:50 PM

The roku device is back and on the back of the sofa

Aug 25, 2025 07:50 PM

It should have an hdmi cable in

Aug 25, 2025 07:50 PM

And when you turn it on with the roku remote it has a light on the front of the speaker

Aug 25, 2025 07:51 PM

Hola, Mark: Siento molestarte de nuevo, nuestro vuelo del miércoles es a las 20:30, tenemos que estar en el aeropuerto de Heathrow a las 17:00. Después de salir por la mañana antes de las 11:00 a. m., ¿podemos guardar nuestro equipaje en el apartamento hasta las 4:00 p. m.?

Aug 25, 2025 08:14 PM

Si se requieren tarifas adicionales, no hay problema.

Aug 26, 2025 06:53 AM

Hi Mohammed Riyadh, hope you've settled in nicely. Let me know if you need anything or if anything isn't upto scratch. If anything isn't 5* worthy I'd much prefer if you communicate with me and I can try and make it right 🙏🏻

Aug 26, 2025 07:00 AM

Hola, Mark. Todo es agradable y perfecto Las habitaciones están limpias, los niños disfrutan del apartamento

Aug 26, 2025 07:10 AM

Hi Mohammed, you're in luck because the next guests don't checkin till the following day. So the simplest would be just to extend your stay another night and you stay until you need to get your flight. I can send the alteration request if you like?

Aug 26, 2025 07:49 AM

The following day is £267 nightly price. We can block out that night for half price, so £130

Aug 26, 2025 07:53 AM

If that's agreeable then let me know so that I can change the cleaner and linen deliveries for the following day

Aug 26, 2025 07:53 AM

De acuerdo

Aug 26, 2025 08:32 AM

Perfect. I will send a request for that amount and then I will block the day

Aug 26, 2025 09:06 AM

I have sent the request, you just need to accept.

Aug 26, 2025 09:07 AM

Estoy intentando aceptar la modificación, pero no la acepta.

Alteration request accepted

Aug 26, 2025 09:40 AM

Hola, Mark. Hemos salido y disfrutado de nuestra estancia en el apartamento. Gracias por la hospitalidad.

Aug 27, 2025 03:10 PM

Hey Mohammed Riyadh, FYI: the checkout time is at 11am tomorrow. Just lock up when you leave. I've got the rubbish and bed linen covered so you don't have to worry about a thing! Thanks so much, you've been awesome! I'll be leaving you an all 5* review! ☺️👍

Aug 27, 2025 05:00 PM

Sorry the message above was just an automated one. But I'll definitely leave you a 5* review. You've been such an ease to deal with 🙏🏽 I wish all guests were like you!

Aug 27, 2025 05:08 PM

Hello Mohammed, I hope you are well. I wanted to let you know that after your stay, our cleaning team reported some issues with the condition of the flat, including a stained chair, broken glass in some frames, and a blind that was displaced by the wind, some marks on the bath..etc. I completely understand that travelling with family can make it difficult to keep everything in order, but I do need to resolve these matters to ensure the place is ready for future guests. Fortunately, Airbnb provides a safe and fair process for situations like this. You will soon receive a claim through the platform listing the items to be replaced. You may choose to accept or decline it. Thank you for your understanding, and I appreciate your attention to this matter. Best regards, Mark
