Jack and Emma

We thoroughly enjoyed our week in Jack and Emma’s flat at 546 Caledonian Road. They were there to greet us and walk us through to orient us to the essentials — which keys for which doors, how to open and shut windows and blinds, how to adjust heat, WiFi codes, etc. In preparation for our arrival, they had even stocked the fridge and cupboard with fresh milk, juice, butter, jam, and bananas, much appreciated until we could do our own shopping. A vase of fresh flowers was a welcoming touch!
The apartment was spacious and well-kept, just as illustrated in the online photos. We especially enjoyed the monumental floor-to-ceiling windows, both in the lounge and in the bedroom—in both cases looking out on leafy quiet yards. The enclosed back garden was huge and peaceful with birdsong and bright geraniums. We made use of the outdoor table and chairs for al-fresco meals. The kitchen, of course, is small, but quite fine for simple preparations, and opens onto the back garden.
One of the best things for us was the location, on the Picadilly Line just a couple of blocks north of the Caledonian Road tube station, giving direct access to Heathrow airport, Kings Cross/St Pancras Station, the British Library, the British Museum, etc. The #91 bus stops right outside the front gate, taking one on a direct line through town to Trafalgar Square, with stops at KingsCross, the British Library, the British Museum.
We expect to stay here again, and will certainly recommend it to friends!
