One of the best locations in London -- 100m from British Museum, 1 km from the theatres of Covent Garden, surrounded with cafes and quirky shops; buses, Underground and taxis just a short walk away. The apartment is a basement in a building nearly 200 years old, so it's plain rather than shiny bright and new, but it is comfortable. Stairs a bit narrow. There's more space than you'd expect: not only a double and a single bed but also a full-sized bath, a kitchenette with proper oven, and a roomy dining table. Surprisingly quiet at night, and warm even on a chilly autumn evening. Peter went to some trouble to make sure we had what we needed. We relaxed easily and hope to book again.
