David’s place is super stylish, bijou and located maybe just 7 minutes walk from Victoria in the Pimlico/Belgravia borders. Perfect!
It’s surprisingly quiet given its very central location. The giant windows give the place a light and airy feel and stylish blinds give privacy when you need it.
There’s something very New York about it for some reason: the duplex lay out perhaps. It also makes the place feel bigger somehow.
It’s a perfect bolt hole for a couple of nights for work (my reason for being there) or as a base to explore the city. So many great local shops and places to eat out just a few steps away and you could walk to many tourist spots in less than half an hour.
For a longer stay I would personally need a bed not built into a bay window: being 187cm necessitated sleeping diagonally across the double bed. Easier to do alone than with a partner!!! I’d also want more space to unpack clothes: there was none much (wardrobe was full) so I lived out of my case on the floor for two days and managed to hang my suit.
Otherwise, though, a great little find and perfect for this short solo trip.
