This flat, quietly tucked away in a small court, is large compared to others we've used. Although you hear bells at night, they are pleasant and not intrusive. We used the kitchen to have breakfast there. Small grocery stores nearby; we struggled a bit to find inexpensive eating in the area (refuse to do McDonald's!), but that's also London. Could do laundry and it dried mostly overnight on the rack. No view but the brick courtyard, but a quick 5 min walk to St Paul's and the footbridge over the Thames. The flat was cozy and warm, bed very comfortable.
