If you are looking for the perfect place to stay near the center of London, look no further. I said perfect. There is nothing I would change about our experience with this flat. Upon arrival we were warmly received, (even though we arrived a little late). We were so thrilled to find such a well appointed flat. The photos provide a good idea, but even better when you are there. The flat is more than enough room for two, and I anticipate three or four would likewise be comfortable.

Location!!! Right near a great park and walking/biking path along the canal. We regularly walked over to the park and hired "Boris" bikes to ride over to the London attractions. (From the apartment to London Tower was about a 20 minute bike ride mostly on dedicated bike paths). When needing to travel further, we had easy access with a 10 minute walk to the District Line, DLR and other railway / bus services.

The flat! Super clean, and roomy. Enter and you are in a hallway with the bathroom immediately to your left. Again, super clean and roomy. (I have experienced cramped bathrooms on other stays in London). Continue down the hall and to the right and the separate bedroom is to your left. Again, super clean and roomy. Not the cramped feeling you would get in a hotel room. The bed is comfortable. Plenty of room to put your belongings away and room enough for a couple of people to get dressed for a day out without tripping over each other.

Just beyond the bedroom is the combination Living Area / Kitchen / Dining Table. Modern, clean and roomy once again. There are all the essentials in the kitchen. The couch and TV are a welcome spot at the end of a long day of sight seeing.

There is a balcony, from which you can just make out the top of London buildings including the Gherkin.

The neighborhood is quiet and safe. We walked around even late into the night and never felt unsafe, (even through the park to the tube station).

Misc notes: Though we took our own, there were a number of US power adapters available. Don't forget your bath soap/bath sponge, (remember, its not a hotel). There were plenty of bath towels and linens. There is a great market within 10 minute walk to buy food or bath soap if you forget. (Guess who forgot). Great WiFi. There is an iron and ironing board. A clothes washer and clothes drying rack are available. The water pressure is great and the hot water is hot.

You would be hard pressed to find a better location, so book now while you can if it is available. If its not available, it may be that we have arranged to stay there again.
