It proved out to be a perfect choice that I made, switching out from another place we stayed in London in the City. I was with my two kids for holiday. They were lazy and most of the time did not want to spend time on traffic and on searching for food, while I care about food. This place is so convenient. You have the whole Covent Garden neighborhood within 5 minutes of walk, and you get everything you need and so many choices. And Covent Garden is such a lovely place to hang out, both for kids and for adults.
I was a bit concerned when I saw earlier reviewers say that it gets a bit noisy for sleep in late night, but the windows shut out most of the noises, for weekdays I would say it's actually pretty quiet.
And it is such a charming flat, with natural lights coming from both ends of the room, one from the kitchen facing the street where the morning light is lovely but not too strong, while the balcony brings in fresh air and light throughout the day without having to worry about noises because it is facing a very quiet backyard for the compound.
And it is the most flowery balcony in the entire neighborhood as I observed from the balcony. The colors are such a delight for the eyes.
Very good quality stuff in the kitchen, bathroom and beds. The host obviously cares about life standard. And a lot of tasteful collections. You walk in feel the host is your friend and he just left for a few days and leave the home for you to enjoy.
Finally Marcus was so kind to accommodate our late check out at 7pm as our flight was 10pmish. So the kids could still get up late in the morning and we could still go to Westminster for a visit in the afternoon, come back for the Jamie's Italian (awesome food) next door and got a uber to Heathrow.
Thank you Marcus again for a wonderful holiday.
