We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas holiday at Hal’s place. In advance of our trip, Hal was very prompt and helpful answering our questions and his property manager, Annie, welcomed us on Christmas Day with groceries to tide us over for the day and some cheerful decorations. The place is on a main thoroughfare very close to an underground station on the District and Piccadilly lines so it is easy to travel to all the sites but it is in zone 3 so plan on doing a bit more traveling than if you are staying closer to central London. The apartment is very clean, with comfortable beds and a modern open common area which we enjoyed.
