I would highly recommend staying here! Iwona was there to welcome us and show us how everything worked at the flat. Milena greeted us by phone and was quickly reachable by email when I contacted her about check out during our stay. Everything you could need was easy to find, big bathroom, wonderful kitchen (though we did not cook much, there were so many amazing restaurants around), comfy king size bed, written information was very helpful, and the espresso machine was a fun treat! A spacious place for being in such a big city. This home is only about 1.5-2
5 miles to most of the main London attractions. This felt far at first, but once we figured out the bus and tube system it was easy to get around. I think my husband and I would have just walked if we weren't travelling with our children. I am very glad we stayed here instead of right in the Trafalgar square or Piccadilly area because (though it was very close) we got to experience a neighborhood where London residents live and work rather than being surrounded by other tourists all the time. Very close to shopping, public transportation, and tons of good restaurants. It was very quiet in the penthouse, and usually absolutely silent at night. I would recommend the Italian and Turkish restaurants that are right next to each other, not quite a block away. I would also suggest the Sunday early morning service (8 am) at St Paul's if you want a chance to experience the cathedral when it is quiet and not full of people (you can't look around or tour but it is right under the dome, weekday morning services are in a side chapel).
We had a wonderful home staying here and hope we'll be able to come back some day! Thank you Milena!
