Emily and Maximilian's place in London is absolutely fantastic. The apartment itself is very clean, well lit and inviting. The bed is comfortable and the room quite spacious. Check in and check out was a breeze and getting to their place from Heathrow on the tube is doable. Speaking of public transport, it’s right outside the front (and back) door. Several bus lines can be found running up and down the street and the Overground is just around the corner. This makes it an ideal location for exploring London. I had never stayed outside of West London, but the neighborhood where Emily and Max live feels like the East Village in New York. Near the Regents Canal, which is absolutely lovely, the neighborhood has become one of London's hot areas to live and becoming hipper by the day. There are a few really good restaurants in the area too. Ideally I will be able to stay with Emily and Max again on my next visit to London.
