I can't say enough good things about this place and our hosts. We knew there would be some good things close to the flat, and that it would be convenient, but we had no idea how great the location was until we were there for a day or 2. You can catch a bus or Underground to get you anywhere in London within 2-3 blocks of the house. The Borough Market being so close made shopping for foodstuffs incredibly fun and convenient, while we were able to have a couple meals on a budget. The neighborhood is very quiet on weeknights, and the small amount of construction in the neighborhood really did not affect us at all. The house is well equipped and clean, but the location is what really made it special for us.
