Woolwich is certainly an off-the-beaten-path place to stay in London, but it does have its charms. Tony's place was a good way to get a sense of the area. The River Thames is just a short stroll north, there's a lovely park to the southwest, and not far are the frequent buses on Woolwich Road, leading into town (Elizabeth line) to the east, or to North Greenwich (Jubilee line) and then Greenwich, to the west. Tony's flat may be small, but there's little wasted space, and more than enough room for one or a couple. During my nearly four month stay I found it more than suited my needs. Tony was always responsive and extremely helpful.
