This turned out to be a comfortable, quiet home base for my first time in London. The neighborhood was not touristy, and the proximity to King’s Cross/St. Pancras stations made getting around spread out London easy. There are also plenty of restaurants, grocery stores, etc., within easy walking distance. Check out Coal Drops Yard and stock the kitchen from the Waitrose there. Although Clive and I didn’t meet, he made me feel well-looked-after through his detailed and prompt communications. He responded within moments when I arrived and my jet lagged brain had trouble managing the old fashioned key in the front door. Go and enjoy Clive’s hospitality and his living room with the lovely view over Percy Circus.
