Boat was well equipped, clean and a neat experience for our family of 3. We had never stayed on a boat before and did not realize until in London that boat culture is speckled throughout different areas of town. Close to restaurants and not far walk to grocery. Many buses nearby if you choose to see the city on the cheap. Sarah and Simon are east-going and kind people who have been in the neighborhood for many years and offered suggestions on things to do. When walking to and from in the evening you may want a flashlight as it can be dark. Recommend taking the canal route vs. neighborhood when possible.
