Alex is a truly gracious host. Very responsive, answered my messages quickly. His condo is perfectly located, an oasis in the middle of Chinatown and Leicester Square, very much in the middle of the action. Felt lucky because his place has the best appliances and gadgets, and well decorated with lots of natural light, great that he has block out curtains too- perfect for jet lagged travelers. I had a fabulous time at Alex's place! Five stars all the way!
