Emily's place is fantastic. It really feels like a home away from home. The location is amazing. Just 15-20 mins to Oxford Circus, Piccadilly, Westminster, Big Ben. Paddington and Vitoria Train stations are close by for you to get to the airport or to do a day trip out of London. Her underground line was very conveniently located to go to the Harry Potter Studio Tour and Kew Gardens (which are both outside of Zone 1 and 2) of London. At night, if you return home late, a night bus runs to just 2 blocks away from the flat. Emily was out of town during my stay but she was very communicative from aboard and called me on the day of my check in to explain everything in the flat to me. Everything in the flat was clean and orderly. The kitchen has all the supplies you need to make a meal if you are tired of eating out or want to save a little money and cook. I felt perfectly safe in the neighborhood even as I was leaving for the airport at 3:30 in the morning. I highly recommend Emily's place and would love to stay again when I come back to London in the future.
