Micci is a delightful host, eager to help if asked, and perfectly willing to leave you alone, if that is what you prefer. The Islington neighborhood is filled with great places of all sorts for food and drink. The location is not dead center of the tourist areas, but an easy 10 minute walk for neighborhood places and fifteen minutes by bus or underground for many of the main ones. Oh, I forgot one of the best parts: the self enclosed room with bath also has a charming outdoor garden patio. I forgot because in the winter -- I was there at the end of December -- the outdoors is a little cold. In the spring, summer, and fall, it must be superb. Even in the winter, the view of the garden, through the large windows, is a pleasure. Enjoy,
