Jacob's place was wonderful! Clean, comfortable, and in a good location. Jacob was there to great us (as was a bottle of wine and a box of chocolate) and he fully explained everything to us. He provided us with Oyster passes for the a Tube (a major help!) and a map of the city. He had a great suggestion for how we should spend our first night in London. The location is great: near many places to eat and King's Cross/St. Pancras. It's an ideal location if your next stop is Paris and you're taking the Chunnel. However, if you plan on going out to dinner and need to come back and change, it can cut your day short, since you need the time to go back, change, and go back out again. This is a mere geographical/logistic concern. At King's Cross you can easily catch the Tube, the train, or a taxi. I highly recommend it!
