In London for one night: flying into LHR, leaving from STN I’m flying early into LHR (arriving at 11:00 AM) and staying barely 24 hours. I have a flight the following day from STN at 12:50 PM.

3 days before I travel for a 3 month stay at a booking.com apartment I get told by them I have to pay outside of booking.com, what do I do? I would assume this means I have no assurances and can easily be scammed so I don’t want to do it unless it is a legit thing.
