Farrah's place is in a wonderful location which makes it ideal for a few days in London sightseeing, eating or going to shows. It's also very secure. There's no invited access to the kitchen/lounge area of the flat (but Farrah is more than happy to replenish your water bottle or wash out your cup for you). The room was exceptionally quiet for the location (literally one minute from Leicester Sq tube). Sharing the bathroom wasn't a problem at all for me and I was grateful for the dining suggestions and other useful tips. Much better value than a hotel!
