Excellent stay with Maryellen. The room is very private since her living area is upstairs except for the kitchen, but she was available and extremely helpful. Very clean and we'll decorated. Great kitchen, I felt very much at home here. Cereals, tea, coffee, etc. available. Private bathroom. There is one flight of steep stairs up to the apt. but no problem unless one is disabled. The location was very good. Grocery around the corner and lots of restaurants. Busses a couple of blocks away. Tube ends at Tower, but that is within walking distance. Highly recommend.
