I can’t say enough positive things about Ian’s place. The location is PERFECT with a ton of restaurants, shopping, grocery stores... pretty much anything you need around. There are two major train stations literally right across the street and it is SO easy to get anywhere around London from his place.
It’s a busy, popular area, but Ian’s apartment is surprisingly SILENT when you’re inside. Totally soundproof. If you’re bothered by light, I would suggest bringing an eye shade (there are blinds but they’re white so they don’t black out the sun) but honestly it didn’t bother me.
A concern of mine when traveling is room temperature but I would argue Ian has the best air conditioner/heater in all of the UK. You will be comfortable. There’s a blow dryer, power converters, USB outlets, an umbrella, tons of drawers and storage in the room. Super convenient!!
I would recommend Ian’s place to any of my friends or family, and my husband and I will be back!
