Alexis was great! He greeted us at the door and really made us feel welcome and taken care of. The flat locale in Islington is very good: lovely little cafes and restos within walking distance and very convenient to bus and Tube. Though street is busy the double hung windows make a big difference masking sound. His place is quite clean and neat, simply but elegantly furnished, with lots of little amenities in kitchen, bath and elsewhere. Especially nice that he let us use a local cell phone with google mapping, that was invaluable when trying to negotiate the city. We would most certainly stay with Alexis again when visiting London.
