Alison's apartment is an absolute oasis. Alison's lovely neighbor let us in as she was away and in the apartment were fresh flowers in every room and blooming on the balcony, a bottle of wine and the yummiest cookies.

2 minutes from a 24 hour bus that takes you direct to Oxford/Regent Sts and Victoria Station and 10 minutes walk to the overland trains and the underground - great location. Not to mention 5 minutes walk to Hampstead Heath. Having always lived and stayed in South London, this was my first venture north for a stay and I have to say I was well pleased. On a beautiful sunny day nothing like laying in the grass on the heath and looking over the city.

Alison's apartment is even better in person than in the photos. It was spotless and has all the personal touches of someone who loves their home. The bed was comfy, the linen was white company, there was plenty of room in the fridge and the kitchen has all the necessary equipment. Internet was great. Best thing was how quiet it is. The view from the couch onto the balcony is so incredibly quant and charming, could have spent days sitting on the couch - unfortunately so much to do in London!

This apartment is private, well located, secure, clean and has a bathroom and bath of a swanky hotel. Couldn't ask for more really.
