I was in London with a colleague for a business conference at the Excel Center and we rented the two top floors of Michael's place for five days. There is a top loft with a flat screen and a large L-shaped couch. I stayed in that room -- the couch was fine for sleeping. It also had a huge table to work on. Downstairs there's a kitchen, a second bedroom and the bathroom. The two of us shared the bathroom which seemed to work out fine. There was also a lower level where Michael, (the owner) stays. I only met him briefly twice -- but he was very friendly and accommodating. The place is gated so we felt very safe. It's also about a 30 min tube ride to Excel -- which was nice. Also there's a good Indian restaurant around the corner: Tayabs -- which is worth trying. So... for $165 USD a nice in London -- it turned out to be a great deal.
