This was an excellent apt/flat in Notting Hill, one of the nicer neighborhoods in London. It is 10 minutes to walk to Hyde Park and there are lots of restaurants at all levels right in Notting Hill. Everything in the apartment is in good working order and it is rather spacious. A hotel room at the same rate would be half the size and half the amenities. The apartment is also especially clean and Maureen helps by booking cheap taxis from the Heathrow to the apartment if needed. There is free tea, etc. and you could eat off the floors should you like to if you are worried about cleanliness. The street it is on is residential and quite, but there is a passage at its end that brings you to lots of shops and restaurants within 2 minutes on foot. I would stay there again. The two of us and our son had no problem with space -- ample. Kitchen is especially well equipped if you choose to use it. Closest subways are about 10 minutes on foot. Supermarket 2 minutes away.
