We so appreciated this modernized and cozy flat with shared bath and wonderfully appointed kitchen. Safe and secure doors. Comfy bed for us two. From Heathrow Airport: take Piccadilly Line to Russel Square. Take the lift up. 175 stairs otherwise! Exit R and glide your wheeled bag a few short blocks up to the corner with the childrens park by the white wall. There you take a Left. Follow the fenceline around a Right bend. Turn Left and you will have a straight away for a few blocks to the door. We found it very easy. If you overpack, your host will help you situate your bags up the stairs.
Heading to Theater? Take Leicester Tube during theater peak times and walk 6” instead of Covent Garden.
It’s a city as any so light sleepers need earplugs. Excellent location for theater district which has the best dining too. And British Museum. Great Buses to Tate Modern Shakespere Globe too. Wonderful grocers for park pic-nics and self catering: Waitrose and Partners is full of fine British & Organic products and large selection. Alara Health Café and grocer nearby for dietary restrictions such as coelic and celiac gluten-free. Also Tesco and Sainsbury. Costa Coffee ready early right across the corner.
It’s a college area so you’ll never suffer boredom. Delightful place!
