Though we did not get to meet Veli when we checked into his apartment, he was very responsive in the wake of an issue during our stay. The apartment itself is truly stellar, and we really enjoyed being able back to come back to it at the end of a long day out. It was homey and comfortable, and we loved all the books. The kitchen was fully stocked, and we took advantage of it to make ourselves breakfast using ingredients from the market that is located on the first floor of the building. Very convenient, located close to a major thoroughfare but far enough away that nights are quiet. There are several bus lines nearby, which is great for more intrepid travelers who want to use London's really amazing public transportation system.
Overall we had a great trip, and Veli's apartment was a perfect home base.
