Truly is located in the absolute most perfect location for enjoying this wonderful city, people watching and getting around easily. It wasn't very hot when we visited, so we were able to close the windows at night to keep out most of the noise. There is a lot of street traffic/noise in the very early hours for street cleaning and the restaurants getting ready to start the day. My kids slept in the rooms that faced the street and they didn't have any trouble sleeping. We slept in the room that faced the alley and there wasn't any noise at all on that side of the apartment. The place could really use a good deep cleaning. Viski was a good, responsive host and did not have any problems at all in communicating with him or gaining access to the facility. If you want to stay in the perfect location for exploring London, this could be the place for you.
