Being new to AirBNB, Alek's place was only our second time to use it (in the same UK trip). And, oh my gosh, I hit the jackpot! Besides the location being in a nice residential area with a short walk from the tube (we were pulling our suitcases behind us), there were plenty of restaurants and bars in the immediate area. And there's more! This is not just a place to place your head while on vacation; Aleks thought of and provided little things and luxury! One of the reasons I booked Alek's flat is because it mentioned having breakfast food in the fridge. Well, instead of just basic breakfast needs, this refrigerator was heavily and very graciously stocked! From about 7 different selections of meats and the British version of bacon, organic yogurts & organic eggs, plenty of 4 different types of juices, 3 different types of milk, fruit, baguettes, croissants, chocolate croissants, Hagen Daas ice cream, wine, an expresso/cappuccino machine with whole beans, 2 different types of sandwich breads, bagels, cream cheeses, delicious cheeses of about 5-6 kinds, cans of Coke, lemonade, tonic water, water, and more! (As I'm typing, I'm having to go back and add because more comes to mind!). There certainly was enough stocked food for us to feed my family of 4 (includes 2 teens) our entire stay! In addition to food, Aleks thought about everything! Slippers and robes for use, I saw plenty of umbrellas by door and I believe upstairs going out to the terrace, the bathroom had plenty of anything you may have forgotten, plus washer/dryer, a scale. Honestly, his place is like 'home away from home.' Where else does the host also provide you with a cell phone to use (UK only) with internet during your stay! Awesome! The flat had cable TVs (not sure what they really call it, maybe it's satellite), internet, great sunlight. I have high expectations and this flat exceeded them all. I'm still blown away from the quality & quantity Aleks stocked the fridge and freezer! Wow! I know I'm forgetting alot; this place is great and the host just as wonderful! We didn't get to meet Aleks (we did talk) because he was out of country but his representative was very thorough in her instructions and showing us around plus there is a book with instructions for other things in the house if you can't remember or need to use something. The flat is located very close to Pimlico station and just a bit farther from Victoria so you're away from the touristy cost of things. If I do return to London, I'll be staying here without hesitation!!!!
