Elena's flat is very nice, and perfectly situated between Bayswater and Notting Hill. Kensington Gardens/Hyde Park, Portobello Road, and Paddington Station are all within walking distance. The place is modern, clean, and well appointed; It even has a washer and dryer in the unit. We were only there a week, so we didn't need that, but it's a nice feature to have. The bed is a king size and quite comfortable - that was a plus. It is a basement unit with a set of steep stairs to get down to it on the outside. I only note that for anyone who may have mobility issues. This probably isn't the place for you. We were fine with it, and anyone who is able-bodied will have no trouble. I heartily recommend Elena's place.
