First of all Sam is very nice host - generous, kind. We appreciated a lot he was flexible about check in and out and fresh flowers. The flat is nice and cosy, there is plenty of space, just a little bit cold - we came in winter. The bathroom is quit old, but it seems Sam was going to renew it.
The neiborhood is nice and quiet - like shown on the picture and even if not very central (it is zone 2), you have an easy access to main sightseeings by bus (we took busses 19 and 30 on the Upper street) and tube. On the Upper street which is 5 minutes away ,there are plenty of restaurants and shops.
