I can recommend Clare's place absolutely and without reservation. It is exactly as described and pictured, but *better*. The flat is charming and bright with a lovely view of the rooftops of London, the Tube is nearby, Portobello Road is a treat, and everyone I encountered in the building and the neighborhood was delightful. I spent two weeks using this place as both a refuge and a jumping-off point for travel adventures, and could not have been happier.

Clare is very responsive and her desire to make sure that I had a wonderful time shone through in all our interactions. The flat has all of the amenities one might need while traveling - an iron/ironing board, hair dryer, printer, plenty of plugs (Americans: the current turns off and on at the plug), and a fully functioning kitchen.

If I had the option to move in and never leave, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
