Location : PERFECT- safe, quiet...a mix of locals and tourists..10 minutes walk from Paddington rail station. 5 minutes walk to Hyde park with Hop on off bus stop. Neighborhood stores, souvenir shops and variety of restaurants on Craven rd or Queensway rd. great exchange money place ( not below) two doors down.
the Flat : just what you need for 4. beds are comfy, TV a bonus.. we really only had breakfast and slept... towels and bedding in flat. Due to the in-town location if you are light sleeper bring ear buds and eye patch- life start early in the city and the sun rise at 5 am( june )
The host : the nicest.. stay in touch the whole time.. makes a huge difference for foreign travelers...
