Sasha’s place was in such a lovely location. I love the Pimlico/Victoria neighborhood. Victoria station is not too far away and will take you just about anywhere. When you walk out the door of the flat, so many shops, restaurants, pubs and grocery stores are at your fingertips. The cozy apartment was perfect for 1 or 2 people, with a nice sized bathroom (and lovely tub for a bath), a kitchen perfect for preparing some simple meals, and a comfortable bedroom with plenty of storage for all of your items. There is a TV and a fan, which helped immensely when it was a bit muggy. Sasha as a host was so kind and thoughtful and helpful. She was so sweet and gave me tons of recommendations. When I first arrived she had a few food and drink items ready for me which was SO appreciated after such a long journey.
A few things to note: the flat is upstairs, approximately 40 steps. So if you have mobility issues, this may be tricky. There is a bit of street noise, but that’s London! Just bring some ear plugs. Bring a hairdryer if you need one.
I got a blowout at a salon around the corner called Victoria’s Hair Salon and that was lovely. Also, be sure to grab breakfast or lunch at Gail’s.
Thank you Sasha for being an amazing host!
