Isabelle was a gracious and welcoming host on our first trip to London. Her knowledge of the city and desire to help us make the most of our trip was apparent the first five minutes we arrived. The flat is tucked neatly into a neighborhood that is relaxing and only a couple blocks from many great shops, pubs and restaurants that make for an enjoyable evening after a day of sightseeing. The subway (tube) is only a few blocks away and is easily navigable once you try it. Isabelle went out of her way to make sure we had every opportunity to maximize our time and stay.
