Ian's place was perfect in every way. Spotless, walking distance to most places you would want to see in London, and 1/2 block from two tube stations if you don't want to walk. Close to pubs, restaurants, and not one, but two, Starbucks. Steps from a lovely city park, and a few more steps to the Thames. But even better than all this was Ian. He made us feel right at home. Whenever I am so lucky as to make another trip to London, I definitely hope that Ian's place is available. If so, it will be like staying with an old friend.
