I stayed with Nick for about three weeks while doing research at the nearby National Archives, and it was a really terrific experience. The apartment is in a quiet residential area with lots of great pubs and coffee shops, the very pleasant Mortlake Green, and very close to the Thames. It's also seconds from the Mortlake rail station, which will get you to Waterloo in 20 minutes. Both the room itself and the apartment are clean, cozy, and quiet. There's also a washer, which really came in handy. Nick himself was traveling and not in much, but he is a very friendly and cool guy -- he's always down for a stimulating chat about history, politics, travel, and London. If I'm back in the city, I'd love to stay here again. Highly recommended.
