I’d very much recommend the flat. It’s in the heart of classic Bloomsbury, so very walkable, close to the Tube, hipsterish coffee shops, book stores, colleges of University of London are close by so students and academics all around. Décor is eclectic but very comfortable, easy to work from (Ethernet direct plug and wireless), close to a Coop for groceries, separate washroom with shower and equipped kitchen, large TV with welcome access to Netflix. The nightly price is better than express hotels, and I felt like I was briefly living (rather than staying) in London, so mildly intoxicating.
