I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The apartment was very clean, comfortable, and ultra secure. You need a key to enter and operate elevator (lift). It is across the street from 2 supermarkets one of which is open 24 hours. Although, I never met Emily her family was very helpful with check-in/out. I highly recommend this place, especially if you prefer to be in North London. It is a 10-15 minute walk to the underground (their public transport system) I taught myself how to use it-you can do it! I believe in you. Also the apartment has wifi, basic tv channels, and Netflix yay!!! Overall great apartment, great family co-host, and great trip.
