I had a wonderful time during staying at Mike's place. He was very welcoming and we had a cup of coffee and a chat for a while when I arrived. He is very interesting person that you can talk about various subjects. He was busy with his fantastic(!) work but he always tried to help me and to make sure everything is ok. :) His lovely two cats are adorable that I had to say 'Awww' when I saw them first time. :) Don't worry about your room. He will make sure that they can't go to there. The room has enough space to put luggages and it was clean. Bathroom was also clean and shower has good pressure which I liked.

The location is super. I've been to London many times but it was best location so far. Many places are within walking distance and bus station which links to Notting Hill, Trafalga square and Covent Garden etc. is in front of his flat. Of course St. Pancras / King's Cross is very close to there. About 5 min to King's Cross and about 8-10min to St. Pancras to me and I don't walk that fast ^^; My eurostar departure time was around 12:30pm and I still could take warm shower in the morning, have a breakfast and go to Oxford Circus and Liberty for my last minute shopping without heavy luggages. Then I came back to the flat around 11:30 and checked my stuff then went to St. Pancras. All in all, a wonderful place to stay. I recommend staying at Mike's flat and I hope I can stay again when I go back to London!
