My boyfriend and I stayed at Alex's place for two nights while visiting London. Alex's place is perfect! You will not get a better location! It is super close to all the major attractions and steps away from some of the most popular bars and restaurants. The subway station is just a couple blocks (less than 5 minutes walk) from the front door. As for the apartment itself, it is clean, updated, and in a quiet little area. You get the best of both worlds! Steps away from busy/happening spots but the noise does not reach the apartment. We have already told our friends about this spot. I would highly, highly recommend this place!
