This is a great location, you can walk to Buckingham Palace or Big Ben in just 20mins. It is a bit more pricey of an area for going out to eat but that's something to be expected when sharing the same postal code as the queen. We took the flat with the private patio, was really nice and cozy. Shared bathroom was fine, I only ran into somebody twice trying to use it. Very quiet apartment and area at night. Would definitely stay here again, Alessandro was very helpful about the area and held on to our bags for us when we had to check out.
