I had a great stat at Iris and Bryan's place. It is in very convenient location, near a nice supermarket, train station, restaurants, The Thames, and parks. If you like to walk or jog I highly recommend walking/running to the ferry crossing [closed for the winter] and then running along the Thames. Also highly recommended is Richmond Park. The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, is also close by. I took Uber to/from Heathrow , about 30 minutes and $30 but there are also public transportation options. Communication and wifi were great. There is a patio outside the room. Highly recommended.
