Sophie's place is exactly as depicted - quite chic, comfortable, spacious and quiet. The apartment was VERY clean. The location is only a few Tube stops from all the central London action. And the neighborhood felt quite safe. Sophie was out of the country when we stayed at her place, but she was super communicative/responsive via email throughout our time there. She gave us extra insider tips about recommended activities in the neighborhood throughout our stay. We enjoyed walking through the park (an entrance is just a few steps away), and we loved sitting out on the little balcony on a warm night. In short, we got just what we wanted: a comfy place to call our own for several nights, an excellent base from which to explore London, and a lovely sense of being at home even though we were far far away.
