I was in London for a weekend, playing tennis in Fairlop, so the location of the apartment was perfect to me, even if around 45-50 min from central London. The apartment is very close to the metro station Hainault. It is in a nice residential area and in a quiet street. There are small supermarkets in the surroundings and other services. Michelle and her cat welcomed it warmly, even if it was quite late. My room was on the first floor and on the back of the house (not toward the street but giving on the gardens); it is a big room, parquet and carpets on the floor, with a desk, a closet and a dresser; big window, bathroom (shower) en suite with a window, towels and hairdryer at disposal. Wi-fi was available and I could also use the kitchen, giving on the nice back garden. It was all very quiet and I really enjoyed it.
