Ben's apartment was like a hidden gem right in the heart of London. It's tucked away on the top floor of a building in a very busy area, right across the street from a very busy station (Liverpool Street Station), yet it's quiet and safe, and it's easy to keep your privacy when you're inside. Nobody will bother you, and the neighbors are also so quiet, it sometimes feels like there are none! It's so close to everything. If you're hungry, you don't have to go far. The main door on the first floor is sandwiched between Pret a Manger and Wasabi. You walk a few meters left or right, and you have other restaurant/food choices.

Ben and Nas were the most helpful and thoughtful hosts! A few days before my trip, he helped me already by booking a cab on my behalf to pick me up from the airport. Nas was really sweet, and she welcomed my daughter and me to the apartment and showed us how everything works.

The place looked brand new and was spotless! It had everything we needed and more. The appliances were new and modern. There were plenty of electrical sockets to plug your laptops and other electronic devices into, and there were even 4 USB ports on the wall--only a thoughtful host, who can anticipate a traveler's needs will ever think of something like that!

My daughter and I loved Ben's apartment and would stay there again next time we travel to London.
