The host greeted us in person, which was great considering so many places are just key pickups or lock boxes. Her apartment is in an excellent location in Soho, just a few blocks from the theater district, Chinatown and Tube stations. There are lots of great restaurants and pubs nearby. The street in front of the apartment has a daily market with fresh fruits, flowers, cheeses and much more. The street is bustling until late at night, so it tends to be a bit noisy. But the back two bedrooms of the apartment are away from the street and very quiet. It's rare to have two full bedrooms and two baths in city center. Also has a full kitchen and washer and dryer. (Note: you will have to negotiate a long flight of stairs to get to the flat.) I recommend this location for anyone who wants to be in the middle of it all to feel the excellent London vibes. So much better than a hotel!
