Chantal was a great host.
The apartment was in a good location. The most important part about the location was its proximity to Kew Bridge Station. This was an “overland” train stop that took us to Waterloo station every day to tour Central London. From Waterloo, there were any number of ways to get around, especially with the “Travelcard” all-day pass, which my wife and I would highly recommend because it offers every possible alternative for getting around London, except cab fare (which was more money than we wanted to spend anyway).
