Location, location, location. Louise's place was a great spot to visit London from. Being able to cook and washing was a bonus. Room is huge and you have a private bathroom to use. The stairs were not an issue for me, but my husband did find them hard on his knees. As the location is in central London a little noise until about 11ish, but I just used earplugs so no problem. Beautiful old building and great value for money.
