Pros:
- Clean, clean, clean!
- Easy access to the District line train (Becontree station).
- Good space for 5 people, especially in London.
- Relatively quiet city neighborhood, though the train does run directly behind the house. However, it's not very loud, and my daughters said it didn't bother them at all (they slept in the bedroom that faces the tracks). Good access to groceries.
- Beautiful bathroom with huge tub, and very nice shower.
- Dan is an incredible host, and an amazingly sweet guy. Answered all our questions, and took the time to tour us through the house.
Cons:
- The only real negative is that the kitchen needs a few other items, specifically, mixing bowls, a couple larger serving bowls, a serving platter, a couple whisks, and a colander.
All in all, this townhouse is a great option for a family visiting London. The location is a fair distance from the center of the city (figure 45 minutes to Westminister), but that helps keep the cost down, and you get a pretty quiet neighborhood with easy Underground access.
