Travel to London and some Chelsea Cloisters info.

On Tuesday the 3rd we traveled to London from Edinburgh. It was an uneventful trip.

Got to our apartment at Chelsea Cloisters and, for the first time, it looked like someone uses it as a storeroom (although kitchen, living room/DR, hall, two bedrooms and bathrooms), but it works fine as an AirBnB. Fifth floor with elevator.

Having done some research about Chelsea Cloisters since we got here, it was built in the 30s just before the war and it is among the largest apartment complexes in London. There are about 800 flats in this building, with a reception area. Chelsea is a “refined” section of London, but this place is a bit rundown. Could use some updating.
As I was doing my favorite Google research on Chelsea Cloisters, I came across these three articles from London newspapers from the end of last year and this year.

Just thought this was interesting.
I have not seen any evidence of these activities and many families live here.
