Borough Market Apartments

First the Good news, the flat is very nice. one bedroom, bathroom and open plan lounge/kitched. The bedroom is divided only by a curtain from the rest of the flat. The lat is secure and is situated only 5 minute walk to Shard/London Bridge/Guys Hospital. Caution if you have a medical complaint be aware that the there is a number of steep stairs to get up to the flats front door. All in all great location and nice flat. However, the booking process and customer service is awful. I booked through hotels.com and did not notice that you had to collect the keys from Camden or you could pay extra ££ for them to be delivered to the flat for when you got there. This piece of information is conveniently not shown on the front page of the description and you have to click read more to see it. For those who dont know this is a real pain getting across London. IAs soon as i received the confirmation i realised the process for picking up the keys and i tried to cancel, but they would have nothing of it. I tried contacting Hotels.com who contacted them on my behalf but again to no avail. When you arive in Camden you have to pay a cleaning bill, separately and only in Cash. They will not accept card payment for the cleaning, even though they have a card machine there and will let you pay the deposit fro the flat on it. I physicall had to exit the building find the local cash machine and then go back. Bottom line great flat but BE AWARE OF THE KEY & FEES COLLECTION PROCESS

Loved the apt very modern great view of the shard nice area. Possible downside 34 steps up to apt.

Excellent location next to cafes and only 10 min walk from the Globe theatre and the London bridge, and yet in a very quiet house. Staff at the rental place (keys not picked up at the flat) was very helpful. No problems storing bags etc

Terrible customer service, and a different location to that which was advertised. Upon arriving at Gatwick from my delayed flight, I was called by the hotel who advised me that, because of this delay, I would have to pay a late check-in fee. Brilliant; thanks for understanding that these circumstances are out of my hands. I then followed the map in the Hotels.com app to where it said the hotel was located. No sign of it. I then rang the hotel, only to be informed that I had to go to Camden Town to pick up the keys first, and that since I would now be even later, my late check in fee had increased. Camden Town is FOUR MILES away from the location that is shown on the Hotels.com app. When I tried to explain my predicament to the member of staff on the phone, she told me that if I couldn't get to Camden Town tonight, my reservation would be cancelled. She then hung up on me. After ringing them back to explain that I didn't want my reservation to be cancelled as I had paid over £1000 for it, and I didn't think this issue was my fault, I asked for advice on how to get to Camden Town, as I am not a local. I was told to work it out myself, and again hung up on. I took myself and all my luggage up to this new location, was given my keys after paying an additional late fee and cleaning fee (which suspiciously could only be paid in cash) totaling £60, then told I was now responsible for getting myself back to Borough, at my own expense.
