We had a fantastic time at Ruth's flat. The location couldn't have been any better -- so close to the tube station and Waitrose and minutes away from many of the places we wanted to visit. The flat was clean and completely met our needs. The fruit and prosecco that was left for us was a very nice touch. From the time we booked our stay to the time we arrived at the flat, our communications with both Ruth and Valerie were very good. We had a good experience meeting up with Valerie at check-in, even though we didn't know exactly when we'd be arriving. If you're a light sleeper, you might struggle to get used to the noise from the trains at the Finchley Road station at night, but the noise is not an issue during the day. All in all we had a fantastic stay and recommend Ruth's flat as a great place to set up "home base" while exploring London.
