Karen was a wonderful host! She has lots of books about what to see in London & gave us a newspaper to find a spot for the fireworks on Bonfire day. The flat was super clean and well connected to the city by bus, tube and overground. Getting to the tube was a pleasant stroll through one of the two parks on our doorstep. There was an outdoor patio for my hubby & a giant TV! It was close to grocery stores, restaurants & pubs. I think we tried every place on the street at least once. If you are looking for a quiet haven at the end of a hectic day of sightseeing then Karen's place is perfect!
