Garys place was just as described and more. From the moment i booked Gary was very responsive to emails and his instructions on how to get there and arrival for collecting keys were both clear and easy. When i arrived it was a cold wet london day but the apartment was warm and inviting. I just felt like i was at home. It is situated in an easy 15 min walk to East Croydon station which is a 15-20 min train trip into London Victoria or London Bridge. I truly believe that i picked the best place to stay while in London. The bed is super comfy, it was great having a kitchen and the bathroom is a good size. I never had a problem with any noise. It is a quiet block of apartments and very little street noise. East Croydon is very well serviced. Great supermarkets, shopping centre, trains , trams and busses. There is a bus stop right outside your door which takes you to the station. I also took the X26 bus from Heathrow Airport to East Croydon. While its an hour trip it was so easy and convenient. Gary has a welcome folder that clearly explains how everything works in the apartment, where the laundry is and how to use it and all information on transport , where the local supermarkets are and the best places to eat. This was very helpful. There is not one thing wrong with Garys apartment. I would recommend everyone to stay here. It is very modern and spacious. I know if i go to London again i will be staying here. Thank you Gary for this beautiful apartment. It really made me enjoy London. I just felt like i was at home every night.
