Isabelle's place is like having a stylish European apartment in London with five-star hotel amenities (the bedding was wonderful to sleep in, she had half a dozen British adapters so you don't have to bring your own and very good internet connection) with personal touches of home, such as freshly baked banana bread and Isabelle as host and friend for stimulating conversations. I was here on a short weekend trip packed with research and it was incredible to come home to the apartment and relax in such surroundings. The apartment is quiet, very clean and private (I had a bedroom, a living room and a bathroom solely for my personal use.) Isabelle helped me figure out train schedules and was very knowledgable about places to visit. The tube station is about a 7 min walk and there is a bus stop two minutes from the apartment that goes to Victoria Station. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting London by themselves or as a couple.
