Wonderful, up-scale neighborhood that makes you feel like a local. Stay here and you can pretty much walk to many of the top London must-see sights (V&A Museum, Natural History Museum, Science Museum, Hyde Park, Kensington Palace, Royal Albert Hall, etc). Easy walk to Gloucester Road Underground station (although we mostly used Uber). Lots of excellent neighborhood restaurants (Da Mario's for Italian, Bombay Brasserie for Indian, Four Winters for ice cream). Great little neighborhood grocery store (Partridge's) around the corner and a short walk to Sainsbury's and Waitrose.

We decided to arrive a day earlier than originally planned and Stephen was super flexible in letting us extend our stay by a day. Stephen met us at the flat as soon as we got there from airport (we messaged him when we landed at the airport). The flat is clean, comfy and has everything you need. Excellent kitchen facilities. Washer/dryer worked great as well.

I stayed there with my wife and two kids (ages 14 and 11) and we all felt instantly at home.

We would highly recommend this flat for a stay in London. Friendly and flexible hosts make this a "no-brainer"decision.
