My 2 daughters and I really enjoyed our time in London and were thankful for a place to stay close to Kings Cross station. Easy one hour ride back to Heathrow, but find out what terminal you need first. Nice to have washing machine but no microwave. Saved money (London is pretty expensive) by having a few simple meals at home in the ready to use kitchen. We received excellent directions to the flat from the station in our final email welcome from the owner. Micky was there to let us in and drop off our bags even though we got in early. Got the keys and a few instructions and were ready to go welcomed to London.
Loved the big tube map in the kitchen, helped our planning. Felt like our own haven in the big city. Plenty of what you need all around, pubs, post office, grocery, restaurants, British library, more museums just up the road, easy access to buses, taxis, tube or train. Wish we could stay longer.
