Gail was the most welcoming host I've ever met. It was so nice of her to have a little chat with me every now and then. She maintains what I would call a perfect balance between keeping someone's company and giving them privacy. Really enjoyed that. The room and the rest of the apartment were just impeccably clean and very quiet. The neighbourhood is safe, at the same time it's close to Kings Cross, overground and bus stops from where you can easily get to St. Paul's or Trafalgar square. A lot of cafes nearby. I would definitely recommend staying at Gail's to anyone who comes to London for any reason. So sad I was there only for a couple of days.
