I arranged a visit with the person letting thier property, thank fully as I was cautious about how she spoke about other let agreements. She forgot I had booked for that week as well!!! Not a great start! When I visited with someone else, she had a glass of wine in her hand and spent the entire visit complaining about builders she had just sacked and compliaing how much it was going to cost to mend the damage they had done to her walls and floor. she had a complaint about every room with a story of someone who had stayed, .. "the austrailains were....., the silly little man was...." and so on. As if this was endearing to us. I had no option and hoped that as we had visited and agreed a time for me to come over, 9.30am, she was off to stay at a friends and we would be fine. She then mentioned a different figure for cleaning, which I had ALREADY questioned, with no reply from Wimdu. I had a group of friends all in our late 30's for a quiet tea party, hen do, coming from very far away, What was I to do at late notice? I contacted WImdu by phone during the week and email "URGENT", explaining that I had gone online to check the prices, and she had changed them since the morning! They never came back to me. She was cooking her breakfast and had a glass of wine in her hand! at 9.30am still packing and changing bedding when I got there. She said, "it is ok, we only slept in those two nights, I'll leave them on" for 2 of the beds! so what is the cleaing fee for? She continued shouting at her son and not really getting near leaving, it was now 11am..I started getting the plce ready. She left at 1pm , just before the hen arrived for her "surprise", it put a bad atmosphere as people arrived, to a woman shouting, with wine in her hand and about to leave and drive with her 12 year old son in the car! She then tried to get more cleaning money from me, I had no option, I had tried calling Wimdu out of hours number, the one you call for emergencies, the line was out of order! off line! I was stranded, with people coming from far, a progressively unstable woman and stress of what to do. What would you do? SO I had to pay the deposit, the cleaning, which Wimdu still did not confirm was in the initail payment. One of the other ladies had to pick her suitcase up and help her to the door, it was as if she wanted to stay. Needless to say, the story gets worse. We cleaned when we left and probable more than we found it. I could not get through to Wimdu at all! I managed to find a number for HR advertising a job, and from there started my complaint, this was weeks later. I recived a response to my URGENT email 4 days later and no acknowledgement of the content. It took 9 months to get a response, numerous emails and calls. They gave me a 50 euro voucher and stated that it was my choice to pay the cleaning fee.She then said she was keeping the deposit because we made marks on her wall and floor! funny how she said that after complaining about the builders and increasing the price on the webste to try and cover her bills the same day as she fired them! All adds up eh?? There are many experiences such as mine online and they have no interest in your experience, looking after you or vetting thier landlords! BE AWARE BEFORE IT RUINS YOUR HOLIDAY AND YOU ARE LEFT OUT OF POCKET!!!! It runied everything I planned for that weekend and her constsnt texting during the weekend was awful. She then did not return on the Sunday, so I had to put the keys through the letter box, thus unable to be there when she spparantly discovered these faults, also leaving me unable to defend myself!

Hello, We spend 2 nights in Lidia, CAMDEN in downtown and very close to the center of LONDON. The house is spacious, comfortable and very quiet. In the morning you wake up with the birds singing! not bad at all when in the city center. Our breakfast is happy Lidia attentive and very friendly. However, there is a lack of rigor on the punctuality of appointment (but on holiday, we quickly forget this detail!) Bonarak BY

The house is located in a quiet area, close to Metro! but if you want,in just three minutes walk, you can reach the great Camden Market where you will discover the real London! Inside, the house is arranged over 4 floors, well organized and with all the comforts.
