The flat was nice and the people in the area were friendly. It appeared very safe and the hosts have tons of great recommendations. For the purposes of our traveling (tourism, seeing the "sights") it was about a $40 usd uber ride into the heart of London where you would see things like the buckingham palace and Trafalgar Square. We ended up getting a hotel room next to Trafalgar Square as the flat was very warm and we could not figure out or find any indication of air conditioning We also felt it was easier and worth the extra money to be close to where we wanted to be. We should have researched more carefully how far this flat is from everything.
