Rachael's flat is close to perfect. We found everything exactly as promised. Very clean and neat; simply but efficiently and effectively furnished.
We loved the neighborhood, which is not on anyone's list of tourist destinations and is therefore a welcome respite from the electric street life of London. After a day amid the crowds of Bankside or Covent Garden or the West End or the museums, it was lovely to come home to quiet streets, to walk among actual residents, to feel the real pulse of the city. The flat is close to two tube stations (8 minutes one way, 11 the other) that can get you anywhere. But our greatest discovery was the bus system: there's a bus stop right on the block, and once you get the hang of it the busses can be even more efficient than the tube – without the long walk home after a long evening at the theatre.
Hope to stay there again before too long!
