Pilar was super helpful in orienting us to London when we first got at her place. She also had maps for us to use. It also turned out that Pilar left on her own holiday a few days after we arrived. But she checked in with us to ensure that we knew that tube service will be limited on New Year’s Eve. She also made lemon and honey to help with my cough.

Her apartment was exactly like the photos on airbnb. The exception being that our bed turned out to be larger. It was also nice to have our own entire bathroom. The apartment was also located near two tube stops for major tubes that made getting around London easy. We also had our own mini fridge. This allowed us to buy groceries from the three grocery stores just minutes away by foot. There were also good restaurants and coffee shops nearby. Our favorite was "The Green Man." It is a pub with awesome burgers that have won some awards.
