Alex's places is a short walk from the London Underground which is great. There are several good restaurants within walking distance which is also nice. The home is comfortable and was quite than expected given it's central location. As others have said in their reviews, getting into the apartment involves climbing a coupe of flights of stairs, but it wasn't a problem for us, we tend to travel light. The kitchen is nice, cookware is limited, but there were all the plates, bowls, cups, glasses we needed plus a kettle and toaster we used for quick breakfasts. Loved our stay and would do it again in a heart beat.
