My three week stay was comfortable. The apartment was quiet. Being on the top floor there were no overhead footsteps. The kitchen was adequate with the necessary dishes, pans and utensils for quick and light cooking. The bed was comfortable with plenty of storage space. The heating worked well. The lighting is decorative, but would have liked more functionality especially at the dining table and in the bathroom where small pot lights don't provide bright general lighting. The living room is large, good for entertaining. Peter is terrific as a host. He is quick to respond to all questions. When we had a mechanical problem, Peter had it fixed within a few hours even though it was a Sunday and a repairman had to be called in. One drawback to this apartment is the stairs. Being on the top floor makes it quiet, but it also requires using the stairs to go up and down. The area is close to perfect with plenty of services and shops, including 24 hour shops, pubs, restaurants and one of the best locations in the city for tube and bus transportation connections especially if you're arriving from Heathrow.
