Michaels flat is perfect for a solo traveler looking for a comfortable, quiet, "home base" for exploring London. Situated in the heart of Covent Garden, it's only a few blocks from the Piccadilly line, and steps from lots of shopping, restaurants, and pubs. Although it's centrally located, the flat is on the second story of a residential building on a side street, so it is surprisingly quiet at night.
Michael was such a gracious and attentive host. I was checking in at the same time as another Airbnb guest (his flat accommodates 2 separate guests, with separate bedrooms) but he took the time to explain everything about the room and the flat to me personally.
The room is very comfortable and I slept like a baby on the twin bed. The gas heat warmed up the room nicely, and little touches like an American charger adaptor, an umbrella, bottled water, and a bowl of fresh fruit really made me feel welcome.
Michael was warm and friendly and offered lots of tips for things to do around London and had several maps and guidebooks available. Although he mainly kept to his quarters in the flat, he was available for any questions or anything that came up during my stay.
I highly recommend Michaels Airbnb- whether you're an experienced traveler or a first time London visitor, it's a perfect location and Michael is a super host!
