Janet's loft space was perfect for this Stateside traveler. What sold me about the loft when I was looking for a place to stay was someone had listed the bed as comfortable.. and indeed it was ! Into Dreamland in moments ..After a day of discovering London, one wants to come 'home' and rest up. I loved that the flat was near Ravencourt Park which I walked thru everyday on my way to and from the tube (District Line) . Also tons of bus service available.I equated the distance between London Central and where Janet's home the same as living in Downtown Brooklyn and travelling to Manhattan. Close enough to be near the action of the city, and at the same time perfectly positioned away when the energy of a city became too much. It was a great feeling to do my thing in Central London and then get away to the quiet of a neighborhood. Janet's loft/ home is impeccable and I felt welcome as soon as I walked in for the first time. Sink and toilet for you upstairs and shower down on the next floor. Easy, and not an issue.. Water pressure great in the shower . I didn't make use of the kitchen area but it was made available as it is part of the arrangement. Walk any direction ad you'll find a nice pub or food choices. I treated the loft more as a 'home base 'as compared to 'where I was staying'. It was a place to rest up for the night or recharge during the afternoon/ evening switch. Janet's family who I met during my stay were charming and relaxed. All n All, top marks for Janet, her loft and her neighborhood. Would easily recommend and/ or return myself.
