First the good things. The flat was clean. And we had the pleasant surprise of having an extra bathroom. Now the less good. The quality of the apartment was nowhere near the expected one. We realize that we were not going to get the exact apartment as that seen in the pictures. However, the expectation was that the apartment we get would be of similar quality. That was not the case, as what we got felt older, smaller, less sunny. More importantly, certain things did not work well. Only one of 6 lights was working in one of the bathrooms. The water was not flowing well, it was merely a trickle sometimes when taking a shower. A bathroom sync was clogged very badly, and we had to wait long until all the water went down. Extra care and maintenance is needed to fix these issues.

The communication between booking with Vrbo and the property managers at home away left us in the dark about final check in information until about 24 hours before leaving for our trip. Then, the flat we booked and got confirmation in was not the flat we actually got. Disappointing. It was also a pain to have to check in across the River from where we were staying. That said, the office folks were kind and helpful, quick to respond to an issue with smoke alarm batteries. And the flat was OK. Short on cooking utensils - one knife, one tiny frying pan, 4 mugs for a place that could sleep 7.

The apartement management; Aldgate Office or London Apartment difficult to reach by email. You have to understand the location of the office for check in is quite far from the allocated unit. It was not in walking distance between those places. Finally, they gave us Borough Empire South at Long Lane iso Union Nike Apartment at Union Street which was not easy to find. We have walked around between the buildings twice under rain and cold weather. No balcon and no smoking as we expected during booking which I might be rejected from the begining if the management clearly communicate with me. We also have had electrical problem when we checked in the unit. One CB was drop (OFF) unpowering the kitchen area. No one came later to fix it during our stay. However, the location of the unit was only 450 meters from Borough underground station and 850 meters from London Bridge Station.

Did not get the apartment we booked Did not get the area we booked Did not get the vicinity to the tube Too and from the tube took 20 min not the 5 we booed for This took hours off our time in London and travelling with a five yr old made things harder with the distance to walk The staff at the office were not interested at all All together with the poor accommodations and generally poor cleanliness The weekend was not great at all.

Excellently located & very well equipped spacious apartment.A lot of thought has gone in to the details of what guests would need.Plenty of towels,bedding,kitchen gadgets++ The heating is electric wall mounted heaters throughout the apartment which are incredibly efficient for such a large space. I would absolutely recommend this apartment and am looking forward to staying again sometime soon!

The shower smelt a bit moldy but was fine. It probably needs a new shower curtain and the caulking could be replaced. Otherwise, we loved the place. It was nice to have a home away from home.

The property was in a fantastic location in Southwark, great for Borough Market, The Shard and The Southbank. Check in was good very pleasant staff. We were in a ground floor apartment. Nice big entrance hall, bedroom one on the first floor very large with a shower room/ toilet. Downstairs in the basement was bedroom two a further shower/room. A well equipped kitchen, diner & living area. Clean bedding & towels. My only fault would be the shower rooms need a bit ok TLC they let the property down a bit! Apartment had good heating lovely and warm.

Find something else
Checkin was a disaster as location was over 15 minute Uber ride to the apartment. We were questioned and ridiculed to ensure we will not throw parties. Apartment was in poor condition with faulty light switches, mold in bathroom, kitchen that had water stains on floor, smell of refuge, and toilet that runs continuously unless lid opened and parts jiggled. WiFi was subpar as it was powered by slow Cellular service which did not get a solid signal.

A complete disaster
The check in was a disaster, I had to travel to their office 39 min away from the apartment to pick up the key When I arrived there was an estate agent showing the apartment to a potential tenant The windows didn’t close. There was no room in the wardrobe due to the vacuum cleaner. No shower gel or shampoo. Basically the worst place I’ve stayed in for years

We stayed for 2 nights on our way to another destination and found the accommodation to be nice. However it wasn't made clear at the booking stage that we collect a key from one address and then the accommodation was somewhere else. So we got off the train with having traveled with 3 large heavy suitcases to walk the 15 mins to where we thought our accommodation was only to have to walk back past the station to our apartment (40mins). The pillows were were all very old and not fit for purpose. Mattress in the bedroom was also in need of updating as the memory foam had molded to a larger,heavier person. I was a little disappointed :(

House of Noise and Trash
To start with there is no such place as Union Nike Apartments. The actual apartment building is called “Westminster”. The location is not the address that was advertised on Hotels.com, which was actually the property management office. Wish I’d known this before the taxi dropped us off with our 70 lbs of baggage! But never mind that - the property was just a 10 min walk away, but after a 10-hour flight, I got an Uber instead. On to the apartment itself - it is not what they show on the photo. Not even close. Not even the same building as shown in the photos on Hotels.com. But the area in Southwark is great and the apartment is clean and modern so we try to make the best of it. And then things got funky. Literally. By day 2, the stench of garbage was so awful that I could barely breathe. I took refuge by sleeping on the living room couch. But the noise from the street below was so loud - I mean I could hear people talking, the traffic light warnings, the buses, the cars, I got no sleep whatsoever. Maybe it would have been less noisy if I’d closed the windows, but it was the hottest day in history in London and the apartment had no fans, no AC, it was smoking hot. So back to the stench. Turns out there were trash bins sitting directly behind the bedroom windows. It was intolerable. So I contacted hotels.com to complain and I went to the property management office to demand a relocation. To their credit they moved us to a lovely 2-bdrm in Shoreditch.

We found the booking in process very easy, remembering that we were informed that the units were at another place. Explaining that 2 of us were mobility impaired, we were told that our unit was on the 5th floor, but we had a lift to the 3rd. When we arrived the lift was out of service. We phoned the booking office who immediately arranged another unit for us. The unit was very clean and comfortable. The toaster wasn't working, but the booking office needs to be informed before they can replace items. I would definitely book a unit with them again.

Terrible. completely false advertising. Expedia needs to remove them from the site. Top floor with no ventilation and bathrooms and rooms in Poor condition. We left within the first hour. Had to haul our luggage to another building far from the checkin building. Expedia tried to intervene. For all practical purposes this is a fraud. I wish I had more authentic review on them. We were not offered any kind of support either.

The apartment isn't at the location given. You have to collect a key and walk 15+ minutes to the apartment. We stayed at the one on Tower Bridge Road. The apartment was extremely warm and we couldn't cool it down. The building itself was loud and creaked a lot. I wouldn't stay there again. The only positive is the location is 400m from Tower Bridge.

The actual apartment that we got was not the apartment that showed up on the map on the listing. It was another 13-15mins walking away. Had we known this, we would of not booked it BC we wanted to be close (as in 3-5 mins walk) to the train station and borough market. There wasn’t hot water the entire time (3 nights) we were there. We have called and both time they did send someone but seems like they can only get it to luke warm temperature... a bit cold for us to shower in. I think they just need a new wAter heater. The apartment also faces the morning sun so it gets extremely hot in the apartment. There are fans but it’s still pretty hot. Sorry no AC in this unit. We were uncomfortable with how hot it was and it was about 74-75 degrees outside.
