In a bid to tackle London's escalating rental prices, an enterprising Airbnb owner is providing an unconventional accommodation option—'romantic' tents pitched inside their living room.
Priced at £68 per night, this unique stay, nestled between Mayfair and Covent Garden, promises affordability, with potential discounts bringing it down to £38 or £1,140 for a 30-day visit, as reported by Daily Mail.
The central location remains a mystery until booking, and guests may find themselves sharing the living space with two other tents. Despite the peculiar concept, the offering includes essential amenities such as a kitchen, WiFi, workspace, air conditioning, washing machine, and a hairdryer.
Comparatively, London's average rent hit £2,501 per month in April 2023, according to Rightmove. Despite its unorthodox nature, the property boasts a commendable average rating of 4.45 stars, with guests praising its romantic charm.
However, not all experiences are seamless, as some visitors have encountered challenges, including shared bathrooms and noise disturbances from neighboring tents. One three-star review highlighted cleanliness issues, prompting the host to apologize, attributing the lapse to the holiday season.
While critics caution against extended stays, citing small, noisy tents and potential inconveniences, positive reviews emphasize the accommodation's central location and excellent communication with the host.
This innovative Airbnb offering has sparked discussions online, with social media users sharing varied opinions on this cost-effective yet quirky living arrangement. Whether for a short stay or a unique adventure, the 'tent near the tube' appears to be leaving a lasting impression on London's accommodation landscape.
