I was met by Jane (Andy's wife) at the flat upon our arrival in London. I did not have a chance to meet Andy, but I found Jane to be very pleasant. She gave us a quick walkthrough of the flat and provided us with two Oyster cards with about 10 pounds pre loaded on each. It was nice to have immediate access to the oyster cards. The only caviot was that they had that had to be reloaded upon checkout (not really a big deal). I found the area to be perfect. It was central and within a 5-10 minute walk to the tube station. There was also a bus stop within a 1 minute walk of the flat. We were able to get anywhere we needed to be via the tube in a short amount of time. (Abby road is within a 15-20 minute walk). Nice middle eastern restaurants near by as well as a few pubs. I found the area to be safe and not too expensive (in terms of food and groceries). The apartment itself was pretty big by London standards. The living room and bedroom were spacious. It was also nice to have a balcony (we used it to see how cold it felt before going out). Kitchen was big and included a washer. The fridge was also a good size. The bathroom and shower were a bit on the small side, but this wasn't a big deal, considering the area and how much we were paying for the flat. A minor inconvience was that the bathroom was separate from the shower/sink. Again, this wasn't a big deal, considering the area and how much we were paying for the flat. Overall my girlfriend and I liked this place and would stay again here if we travel to London.
