This studio has the perfect location to explore London. Just around the corner from Notting Hill Gate station of the tube with easy access to all the major touristic destinations in London, and all the train stations for trips outside of London, as well as Paddington station when coming from Heathrow on the Express. The route 94 towards Acton Green will offer a nice opportunity to return home if you wan to experience the double-decker buses. It stops just around the corner from the studio. The neighborhood is safe, and a nice balance of commercial places, and residential life. Just around the corner you'll find at least three coffee shops/bakeries, a pharmacy, a small supermarket, bookstore. Several good restaurants in the area with a wide options regarding pricing. It gives the experience of living in London, and offers a nice escape from the touristic frenzy at the end of the day. I would certainly return to this studio in future trips to London. The only minor detail you should be mindful of, is that apartment 19 is located on the top floor, which means a few flights of stairs that can be an issue if you have health issues preventing climbing stars, or is planning to stay for a while and has a large suitcase. However, as I said, I would most certainly return to this lovely studio!
